"He's a Large Human"

I don't want to mess up the offensive line positions, but a part of me still wonders after watching Boling at LT if their best line up isn't:


Boling- Westerman- Price- Redmond- Glenn

Redmond is one of the strongest, if not the strongest, guys on the team.  His run blocking suits RG very well and he is going to be a mauler.  Run right all day long, pass whenever you want.  Boling might be very underestimated as a LT as he does have really good mobility, and is more finesse than mauler.  Westerman is not as quick, but has that nasty, road-grader mentality.  

Either way, it should be fun to watch the offensive line shake out.  It is common that teams go from bad to really good in one season in the NFL.  The offensive line of the Bengals is going to be a much different group from last year, and that is a good thing.

You make valid points. We’ve seen in the past what it’s like to have a good D and a shitty O.

Twice the size of Clint Bowling? So Clint is actually 3'3" and 172 1/2 pounds? 
A little hyperbole goes a long way, huh?
I don't even know what 3'3" 172 1/2 would look like .. Rather strange I would think . lol

I think this way we could get all our best Lineman on the field at the same time at the positions that fit them best.

Boling has good feet and hands, i wouldn't call him finesse, cause he is a good run blocker, but he is no mauler like
Glenn and Redmond are that is for sure. Westerman's natural position is LG, this just makes a lot of sense SHRacer
even if they have Glenn slated in at LT right now, this is a possibility if Pollack truly wants his best 5 OL on the field
at the same time.

Great stuff.

I'm still concerned about RT. I see Og, Fisher, Perkins, and Hart in the battle at RT. Odds are that it is Fisher's position to lose at this point in time.

If the Bengals were willing to take on a risk like that, that's what I'd do.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

That does look like a good option.  Would certainly solve the RT situation.

When they were drafted, I thought Fisher was a better prospect than Og.  I'm concerned though that Fisher is kind of in 'unknown' territory at this point even though he is cleared.   

Also, something tells me that that Fisher's best fit is that of a LT which isn't going to happen.  Just my opinion I guess that he was never really used right.  His athleticism best fits there imo.  So be it though, he's a RT.

I agree, had Fisher as the better prospect and always thought he was a better LT prospect, he has good feet and
athleticism, but like you said he won't be starting there regardless it seems. Still liking SHRacer's thought with Glenn
at RT the best.

Large human indeed. Pretty sad when I feel small. I can't wait to see him play.

I'd be all for this.   I think we get the 5 best linemen on the field, Boling has demonstrated his ability at LT, and the right side of the line would be all power.  Hope they give it a look.

My fear is that they'll be so intent on working Og or Fish in at the RT position that they won't entertain the thought till it's too late to get them acclimated.

Glenn reminds me a lot of Whit. He was expected to kick inside to guard or play RT. A lot of people had a first round grade on him, but he fell to the second. They both wound up being very good LTs. Hopefully his foot issues are behind him and we can get 5-6 years out of him.

5-6 yrs would be excellent. Specially if this OL is doing great.
