omgdrdoom Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 C - They'll re-sign Bodine or draft someone. Richburg is still a realistic possibility if he sits on the market and comes cheap. RT - Hobspin already said we probably won't pursue re-signing Andre because of the Bobby Hart signing. I'd also guess that Ogbuehi backs up both OT positions. LB - What is "LB2"? MLB? SLB? We need 2 LBs? 2nd best LB other than Burfict? Honestly not sure what you mean by that. Regardless, we need at least 1 decent linebacker signed or drafted. Not sure we go after a guy like Whitehead now since he may cost a few million, but that'd be my choice. DT and RG are probably already on the roster even though I like Will Hernandez in the draft quite a bit. TE - Would be nice to add a TE that can catch and block. Just re-sign Eifert to an incentive laden contract and cross your fingers. There aren't many well rounded immediate starters in the draft. WR2 - don't care, we have a million guys on the roster already QB2 - don't care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR2 - don't care, we have a million guys on the roster already QB2 - don't care Hobson said we wouldn't pursue Andre because of Bobby Hart? I missed that. A LB2 would be any second LB. Burfict can play 1 spot. Either WLB or MLB. We only really play 2 LBs and have the talent to take up the 33% or so that the 3rd LB plays. Vigil can at least be that. There is a great group of FA LBs but we would need to be flexible there. Some would be more MLB some more WLB.

"Glenn is the second starting tackle they’ve acquired in the last month before free agency even opens Wednesday. They signed Giants right tackle Bobby Hart to a one-year deal on Valentine’s Day, so it looks like right tackle Andre Smith is no longer in their free agency plans." Hobson isn't right about 100% of Bengals related items but he usually gives fans a heads up with stuff like that. He's calling Hart a "starting tackle" too so take that FWIW.

I could still see them drafting a tackle if someone they like is there with one of our early picks, but I'm pretty sure you can rule out any free agent OTs, even Andre unless he comes at a huge discount.

I got the feeling initially that Hart was seen as a guy to grab just because he was out there and could have an upside. This seems like they might be counting on him more than I would like. Probably Fisher/Hart at RT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFT is reporting the deal is 5 years, $47.5 million total, with $28.5 million guaranteed. He is now the second highest paid center in per year average and he has the third biggest overall contract for a center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jensen ended up signing with Tampa. Reported at 4 years, $42 million total, with $22 million guaranteed. Higher average per year than Richburg but less guaranteed money.

I blame the sabermetrics people leaking over from MLB. Stats are a lot more useful applied over 180+ games a season. NFL seasons can get tanked because some guys got a cold at the wrong time.
