I tend to lean towards Mims over Guyton due in part to his shear size & weight.
Mims 6 foot 7 & 3/4 inches tall 340 pounds at the Combine 36 & 1/8 arm length 9.58 RAS score
Guyton 6 foot 7 & 3/4 inches tall 322 pounds at the Combine 34 & 1/8 arm length 9.71 RAS score
Mims appears to have nice balance when he blocks, moves well with the defender and makes it hard for them to get to
either side of him.
I think that Mims handles defenders trying to go around him better than Guyton does and whoever the Bengals get has to deal with
TJ Watt & Myles Garrett.
Either one or both might do just fine and it is up to the Bengals to get it right.
*I wonder if Burrow would have trouble seeing over them if either played at Guard for a while as you suggested. - LOL They are TALL.
I keep forgetting that Mims is 340 pounds. He looks so fit it is hard to see that much weight too him. Must be all muscle.
I guess muscle DOES weigh more than fat. The great balance is what stands out the most to me when watching Mims, something you
cannot teach, he moves really well as you say. Guyton is the guy I am scared of, even if he is a big guy, namely tall he just does not
impress me in his film like Mims does. Latham is big and fits, but I think we need more athleticism on the OL and that is Amarius Mims.
They are tall, but remember Joe is 6'4", not like he is a midget or something lol
