I believe our O-line will definitely be better with the addition of Glenn and Price, but we still have 40% of the line to replace. If we can't shore up those two positions it will be another long season even with the upgrades.
Hell of a post, fredtoast. Well stated, on all accounts.
I agree with you completely, on your opinion of the six players that we have fighting for two starting spots. Personally, I don't feel like our starting RT is even on the roster, yet. I made mention, back shortly after the draft, that I believe the Bengals aren't finished adding talent from other teams. I have a strong feeling that after the first cutdown day, that there will be several veteran OL looking for new homes, due to being slary cap sacrifices.
I feel like the Bengals can come up with a RG, from the bodies competing on the roster, right now. However, I think that RT position might need the security of an experienced veteran, in his last years in the league, to bridge the gap when a more permanent solution is found.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
