If he ends up a swing backup at both guards he will likely see playing time. Id rather have too many capable OL than not enough. We can't mess around with this and let Joe take 70 sacks again.
I do agree with that thought. I just highly doubt the Bengals took a second round pick on a LT, don’t start him year 1, and don’t start him year 2.
If we sign 3 O line FA + bates, we have no more CAP for anyone else. We still need 2 more DT, a starting CB, starting TE. I think Carman starts out of necessity.
