C has always been one of the least-valued positions on OL for the Bengals in the past, next to RG.
One thing that will raise A LOT of concern is gambling on either Carman or this 4th round pick Strange to adequately handle starting LG duties.
Carman didn't do enough this past year to give confidence of solidifying a starting spot, and a 4th round pick is never safe to bet on starting and playing well as a rookie.
I think if you at least re-signed Spain or drafted someone like Zion Johnson at 31 to compete with Carman, you'd have less worry.
You could swap out Wyatt for Johnson and then swap out Strange for someone like Matthew Butler, the 3T from Tennessee.
The reason C is highest is because the deal is shorter in years and he actually is the more valued player.
I just dont think they give up on Carmen this quick - in my humble opinion. Zion give this impression if you sign a FA OG.
Butler is as good as Wyatt? We have a definite hole at DT with just Hill re-signing. Wyatt could be a longterm solution. We dont know what Carmen will do next season, especially in between Jonah and Jensen...?
