Price is probably the only center we'll ever draft in the first round in my lifetime.
Sucks he busted.

Only if Pollack works relentless hours in his lab to devise an elixir that makes someone be the best NFL O-lineman.
He'd probably take it himself and cut Price anyway. Pollack for Pro-Bowl calling my shot now.

Thanks Lapham for giving our pick away that year

If it was possible to opt out of the 4th year of his deal, I’d be thrilled.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.

A. J. Green WR
Dre Kirkpatrick DB Kevin Zeitler OG Tyler Eifert TE Darqueze Dennard DB Cedric Ogbuehi OT William Jackson III CB John Ross WR Billy Price C Jonah Williams OT Joe Burrow QB Last eleven 1st round picks. Not a lot of history of greatness for year 5 for these guys.

Less than two weeks later, the Lions watched their starting center sign elsewhere. If anything, blame the Cowboys. They took Vander Esch, who the Lions really wanted. Sadly, the Bengals had no shot at Ragnow after the trade down. Plus, a lot of media members have mentioned that the Bengals also thought very highly of Vander Esch and were a darkhorse team to draft him.

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. Sorry for Party Rocking!

With Ogbuehi, Price, and Ross they did not even reach that level. Me either. I wanted Ragnow, but was kinda impressed with the consolation prize. Price I thought would be better than Bodine, and we got Glenn. That turned out to be a very bad deal for the team. "Better send those refunds..."
