Fixing the the O-Line should be top priority here.
They just can't have drafted players and FAs that play like Hart, Fisher(non productive), Redmond, Ced. O, and even Glenn for that matter.
If they do. We're right back here in the same discussion next year.
That's a whole lot of failure and Price could be added to that if he doesn't improve.
So as much as we need a stud LBer we need this line fixed even more.
Otherwise we're wasting Mixon, Boyd, Green, and yes even Dalton.
I'd say we need a stud DT even more than a LBer at this point.
The war is in the trenches might sound cliche, but that's what is killing us!
To me, this more than anything! Not only does having a good O line make Mixon a better runner, imagine Andy having all the time in the world to throw. Plus instead of the usual 3 and outs, we have the offense on the field more, which rests our D, and in turn makes them better too. I think fixing the O line is paramount to the Bengals being a 10 win team next year without fixing anything else. (not counting coaches only players)
