Give me Darnell Wright all day long if they don't get a RT in FA. Fits a position of need, comes from a pass heavy offense and he's solid in the gap scheme. He has a ton of good tape against some of the best EDs in the SEC.
I wouldn't touch Wright before Day 3 for the Bengals.
Yes, we ran more gap-power towards the end of the year last year, but an 11 base offense isn't going to want to primarily use a run scheme better suited for 12 or 21 personell. Much like after they did the midseason shift to the pin and pull a couple of years back, we will likely be back to primarily an inside/outside zone scheme at the beginning of next year. If we're going T, it has to be a guy with scheme flexibility.
