"Best tackle on the market is doing insane work for Orlando Brown," Solak told Sheil Kapadia, who hyped up the signing. "Because he's the best tackle on the market. Sure, I'll give you that, but I'm not even sure I agree with it, but I'll give you that. He's not a top 20 tackle."
"Having watched all those defensive films in the Bengals against Kansas City," Solak said. "Lou Anarumo, the Bengals defensive coordinator, has no respect for Orlando Brown. Every time he goes one-on-one hunting. He puts one of his explosive rushers, either Trey Hendrickson or Joseph Ossai, which are not insanely talented names, against Orlando Brown and they always win. When Lou learned that the Bengals were signing Orlando Brown to a big contract. I think his head was spinning."

To be clear this is some dbag from The Ringer’s opinion, not Lou’s.
And it’s a garbage take. Trey Hendrickson beats lots of premier LT’s. To suggest he’s not a “insanely talented name” is just ignorant. He’s been one of the best pass rushers in the league the past 3 years.
Apparently this guy is a known Bengal hater so I’d take this with a grain of salt.
