The running game will never go anywhere and the passing game will struggle if we can't shut down pressure up the middle.
I just have a hard time drafting a guy who struggled so bad against the better competition he faced (Georgia, Miami and NC State). He just seems like a guy with a very average ceiling and a very high floor.
I agree that we need a Center. A solid center option could be available in round 2 or a round 1 trade down etc.
We did spent most of last season hearing complaints about both the left tackle and right tackle positions.
Glenn should solve the left tackle position in the short term but right tackle seems unsolidified.
Jake Fisher could become a Guard option should a rookie right tackle get taken but a guard like Will Hernandez is intriguing.
I don't care how the Bengals get there as long as they button down the O-line by infusing some rookie talent. At least 2 guys fairly high.
What about getting all 3 (RT/C/Guard) ? with Will Hernandez (G) round 1, Frank Ragnow © round 2 and Orlando Brown (RT) round 3.
I am open to anything that actually works.
