Imagine Chase, Tee and Boyd.  I have, and that's why I run to the podium in that scenario.

Adeniji did look pretty good. He did give up 2 sacks once Finley went in. There's no doubt Finley held onto the ball well past the time he should have, but the reps were not pretty for Adeniji in those plays. With that said, you could chalk that up to the teamwide deflation the Bengals experienced following Joe's injury. You saw it on the defense as well. After containing the WFT offense for an entire half, they suddenly were giving up everything once Joe was down. So I think that may have played a big part in Adeniji's decline following the injury. We'll have to watch him play over the next 6 games to see if he's the future at RT or not. 

I think there's no doubt that LG is our biggest weakness on the team right now and Sewell doesn't fix that problem. So it would be awfully tempting to take Chase at 3. Hopefully, we're headed towards a good off season.
