Bodine is their guy for 2017. I imagine it's similar to what happened with Clint Boling. Remember that?
Boling struggled early on so the Bengals didn't do an extension with him entering his final season. He played great in 2014 and got a new deal after the season. I see them doing that with Bodine. He hasn't done much from a positive standpoint, but I'm guessing his new deal will be based on this season. If he steps up and becomes the center that we're constantly told he can become, then we'll bring him back. If he plays like he usually does, then I see us looking elsewhere in 2018.

You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
