You can count on MAYBE adding 1 through the draft this offseason (and that's still a roll of the dice). Bottom line is we are going to have to shell out some cash on this Oline in FA. If we can keep Green and do that, great. Otherwise you gotta pick building the trenches first.

I get it, he has freakish talent and measurables. That also works against him too. The guys you see in the league for a long time generally have more compact physical builds. Most likely, his best days are behind him and he will only continue to deteriorate and become injured more often. You won't see me chasing him out of town, he's made Bengals football bearable to watch ever since Chad left. But if the FO decides to go another direction I still think that's completely reasonable.
All great points Treee as usual but I think we have our Center of the future on the roster in Hopkins, Jonah should be our
LT of the future and Price I think will grow into a decent Guard on either side of Hop. A Guard in FA and and early pick on a
RT and we should be muchly improved in the trenches.
We aren't trading AJ so that is a moot point, Taylor said so.
Extend AJ for a 3 years or so on a reasonable contract citing his injury history as of late and either trade Dalton or move on
completely. If we lose to the Ratbirds big time Sunday, start Finley for the rest of the season who has shown some pocket
awareness.
