No clue what your referencing, this just came from a guy who usually gives me really good information.

Where are the 3 gaping holes?

Not gonna lie, if this doesn't happen I will be extremely disappointed unless we bring in Daryl Williams if he is even still
available. A draft pick isn't going to be better than Prince even, unless it is Penning who won't fall to us. Have to solidify
the RT position.

RT, LG, what other “gapping hole” is there?

TE

Hurst is fine. His career best year was better than CJ’s.

TE is not a weakness at all this year. It’s a potential hole next year

Correct Hurst was a stop gap to prevent need

Free agency isn’t over if we don’t get Collins. We still have Carman and can probably bring back Spain cheap to compete with him. TE is fine and not something we use enough to flip out over. Hurst is more talented than CJ. I’d say corner is a much bigger need than TE even after bringing Apple back. We will be in good shape when the draft rolls around to take BPA.

The fact we currently don't have a top 50 TE currently on the roster means it would be considered a need heading into draft. More of a need than LG to be honest.

[MileHighGrowler]

We’re all impatient to find out what happens next but I can’t believe the game day thread chicken little approach is exploding like it is. Suddenly the team is horrible, everyone needs to be replaced, holes all over. C’mon. This isn’t the Reds…

Hurst is a top 50 TE. Significantly better than that.

SI reporting that the Bengals are all in on Collins and the only hold up is the physical results.

You don’t need a top TE in this offense, with this trio of WR’s. But yes, they will very likely draft a TE. That doesn’t make it a “gaping hole” though.

Which if true must mean Collins is having a problem passing it.... in which case we don't want him. Relax everyone.

I expect either Carman or D'Ante to make sure LG is not a gaping hole. Both are talented and will grow as players.

RT is the only gaping hole on the roster right now. Get the Collins deal done or bring in another vet.

Yeah, don't know why this is even a thing honestly. Hurst will have his best year this year barring injuries too I bet.

The TE position has been upgraded and we can still add a dude like Jelani Woods or Jake Ferguson in the Draft.

Depends on if we extend him after a good season.

Lots of great Corners in this Draft, I just think we need to have the RT position filled in order to draft the best of the pack.

Prince isn't the answer, he is just a good backup.

[RunKijanaRun]

I need this to happen. Down in my balls.

Yeah, if the hip is that bad we need to add someone else but I don't think we would be all in on him if it was that bad.
