Jermaine Eluemunor was a hot name for the Bengals last season when people feared Jonah Williams would force his way out of the building because of the Orlando Brown Jr signing.
He ended up re-signing a 1 year deal with the Raiders, probably because he didn't get the traction in free agency he was hoping for.
He had a good year too. Nothing elite, but a 68.5 PFF grade is above average and would be better than what Williams gave us last year or the year prior.
He does seem to be a bit prone to penalties though, with 10 in 2022, but he brought that back down to 5 in 2023.
I would really like it if we could sign him to a 3 year deal to be our RT for the next few years.
He'd likely be fairly affordable (he only made 3 million last year, and he'd be a good deal even at twice that price), and he'd be good enough to stabilize the Oline so that we aren't forced to take an OT at 18.
We may still end up taking one at 18 if they're BPA, but it would at least give us options.
In addition to him defending Burrow on Twitter, he also has stated he wants to play for a team that can beat the Chiefs when it matters.
Well...is there any team in the NFL better suited to make that claim than the Bengals?

Quote:"You can call me a hater, I don't care," he tweeted. "I don’t like the Chiefs at all … We beat them this year. Yeah cool, but I want to beat them when it matters. Don’t care who comments on this players, fans, I don't care. Congrats to them for making another Super Bowl, but I hope I get the opportunity to beat you when it matters."
