He was having a Pro Bowl season prior to being injured.

The Chiefs ended up spending more money on Jawaan Taylor (4yr/$80m) than we did on Orlando (4yr/$64m) and paired him with Donovan Smith last year who isn't in the NFL anymore and DJ Humphries this year who has been healthy for exactly 1 game that he was unable to finish.

Had 68 snaps for the Dolphins Sunday and graded like this. 42.2/47.5/43.0 (overall/run/pass), with 3 pressures including a sack.

3rd rate talent at a 2nd round price, what a bargain!
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

1st round talent if you believed the hype!
Quote:"He's a powerful guy. He can knock guys off the ball better than any lineman in this draft," Alexander told Dan Hoard on the Bengals Booth Podcast. "He can stop the bull rush, but he also has terrific balance and agility to pass block. I saw him as a first round pick. I know that Mel Kiper and friends probably had him lower, but I guess too bad. I think it's legitimate. I think it's a steal. I don't think it's a reach. I'd put him in the steal category."

Still another embarrassment for the Bengals talent evaluation team.

Besides the one penalty I thought Mims looked great against the Titans myself. BTW, props to Cochran who I thought also looked
decent, at least better than Ford at LT.

I don't see Mims getting pushed around often. Nothing like Jonah used to which was embarrassing, Jonah got ragdolled by Twatt notably...
