I do think we need to look at RT long term, but not sure Brown will not be the starter in 2024.

I see DT and CB as the more pressing need as of now but could change if we add anyone in FA.

Also, just saw Ei Apple is only 28. Seems like he has been around forever. Should Bengals try a reunion with Eli for depth?

I heard that Eli didn't play near as good last year though.

Yes, if some player like Brock Bowers or Byron Murphy fell to 18 I could see them taking one of these two same with Newton.

But RT is the most likely in Fuaga, Latham and I am warming up to Mims now with the Trent Brown addition.

Gives Mims a year to learn behind a very good veteran Tackle.

But if the prospects left if there is a weird run on tackles would be significant reaches, we don't have to feel obligated to reach, and end up in another Billy Price situation. 

That's how I see it at least. 

I see it the same. Guyton still scares me a touch and could be that Billy Price type of pick that we don't want to make.
