i confess to lacking confidence in the Bengals selecting and developing Offensive Line prospects. After first rounders Price and Ogbuehi and 2nd rounders Carman and Jake Fisher, I've grown to prefer their recent trend of getting proven OL through free agency. Thus, my preference is for someone like Murphy, who Lou Anarumo can utilize, and keep using free agency for the OL.
But, if they are very confident in someone like Latham, then by all means move up. Just don't want to see them lose a 3rd rounder to do so. They still need the DL and TE and CB, as well as preparing for departures after this year.
