All the metrics I've seen point to Volson being the guy he his now and not really improving. I think waiting to address tackle is risky enough but aren't Karras and Cappa free agents next year? We need to be adding talent/depth elsewhere in the line as well. Maybe they shock me but I seriously doubt we spend a day 2 pick on OL if we go there in the 1st.
I agree. They absolutely have to start hitting on olineman in the draft.
It's ridiculous. I can't even begin to count all the failed draft picks at the position in the last 15 years.
I don't know how they can go from adding players like Whit, Zeitler, etc. to guys like Ogbuei.
So many misses. It's really set the team back. And not retaining players like Whit and Zeitler put us in a position to draft Burrow/Chase.
Bengals have to hit this year on 1, maybe 2 lineman to ensure long-term success.
Its a big task but I'm glad the draft is supposedly deep this year on oline and dline.
If they fail this year it'll set us back much further than years past.
