Westerman is a guy who played a grand total of 87 snaps last year (about half the snaps of the last two games) and was annointed as savior of the O-line by some. The truth is that he probably isn't that good.
How many other Bengal back ups have left "Marvin's doghouse" in free agency and played well for another team?
Westerman played well last year so your argument is moot right there.
He played well, stop saying that he did not and he still is as a backup LG.

You totally are not seeing my point.. if he is not in the minds of the coaches which at this point seems pretty clear that he will not be the RG, and we go out and pick up a RG after roster cuts..., then someone has to go.. it wont be Hopkins.. he can play center and has more experience at RG.. it will either be Redmond or Westerman... now I would cut Redmond first over Westerman... but you seem to think Westerman is an All Pro untouchable from being cut..
Never said he was an All Pro, now this is getting ridiculous. He has just played well as a backup and i find it strange
that he is not getting a shot at RG. If he is bad there in practice i could see it but that is not what i am hearing.
