As much as I feel we can upgrade at C, I don't know if I'm sold on the Bengals feeling the same way. We would enter the draft with one of the guard spots open. Some say that's Carman's spot to lose, but if there is a solid, day 1 starting guard at 31, you take him. Let Carman earn that guard spot.
If the Bengals weren't sold on Carman last season to start him when Burrow was getting annihilated, then why should anyone be sold on him going into 2022? It wouldn't be bad if we did draft a guard at 31 and Carman pans out. Depth, depth, depth!
I am with you Bengalpool. Hopkins isn't terrible at Center and he would be healthy this year providing he doesn't get injured
again and if Linderbaum falls, take him and let them battle it out. I bet Linderbaum wins and we can cut ties with Hop after.
Get the RG and RT spots taken care of with veterans. Heck, Carman looked very good at LG filling in for Spain when we beat
the Chiefs the first time. I also like the Guards that will be available early and Samaree Salyer Guard out of Georgia is really
flying up my radar the more I see of him and he is athletic and plays mean.
Sounds like a fit for Pollack, let Salyer or another early Guard and Carman battle it out at LG.

That is all I am saying. I don't know if Raimann would start over Prince, that sucks man.

Love both these guys as well. Just want a RT for sure, these guys are both interior Lineman.
