LT - Williams
LG - Competition between Boling, Westerman, Jordan, Hopkins
C - Price
RG - Miller
RT - Glenn
This isn't the first time I'm seeing possibility of a competition at LG either. Makes me wonder if Boling may not get extended.
Personally, if I was considering someone else at LG, I'm trying Boling at RT and look to release/trade Glenn this year or next. The cap space freed up from Glenn would allow the Bengals to extend Boling easily, and Boling is worth extending over Glenn anyway.
I like the thought from Dehner and i agree with you on keeping Boling over Glenn, Boling is cheaper, more versatile and just has been playing much better. If this is how it shapes up i hope Glenn plays well at RT, he definately has the size and dimensions to do it, i hope he gets that fire. He played soft last year.
On the other hand Westerman has played well pretty much everytime i have watched him at LG and could be a future Boling replacement there, but as we have seen, he is not near as versatile as Boling and seems to only play LG.
