Westerman or TJ Johnson might be better than Bodine, but I feel at this point it's more than a hope rather than a certainty.
If he flounders again this year, I really want to see a center with experience at that position in college drafted by the Bengals within the first three rounds. Given the Bengals' lack of priority for investing a first round draft pick at the position, I'll hope for someone like Frank Ragnow in the second or third round (currently where projected according to CBS Sports).

Personally, I hope that there's a Mack/Pouncey/Fredericks type available in the first.
