Andrew Whitworth on Bengals deal

[Bengalitis]

Whitworth was painful because we weren't able to draft a good replacement for him and is still hurting us, take a look at our center. We drafted one (Price) to take over and flopped, but we can live with it because we found a Center (Hopkins) that can do the job instead, and does it well.

Whithworth was a roll of the dice. And it didn't work out. At least he didn't flame out in Cinci like Andy did.

The way they planned Withworth's exit seemed good on paper.
