The Oline - where is it really ?

The problem with Price is this...
- He's a better fit at C than G. This has a decent amount to do with his incredible lack of length.
- The Bengals found a better C in Hopkins, so they tried him elsewhere so that they weren't putting a 1st rounder on the bench.
- He hadn't played Guard since 2016, so he was very rusty trying to go back without having a full offseason to prepare.

At this point, the best option is to keep Price on the bench for a year and really groom him at Guard. Yes, it sucks to do that with a 1st round OL in his 3rd year in the league, but they don't really have a better option at this point.

Agreed. He also dealt with quite a few injuries since being drafted. He tore something working out for the draft, believe he hurt his foot and back to? That stunts your growth.Sucks the most that Bengals have really tried to fix the line, but have swung and missed so much recently. Rather odd to miss on that many lineman that high in the draft.
