They must have his replacement lined up already. Maybe a trade? Gabe Jackson perhaps? We put a second RD tender on Alex Redmond for a reason. Sucks, but that's who I see.

sparky151 Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 Good god, no. Alex Redmond is not the answer. We could probably get Lewis or Stenburg in round 4 or Muti in round 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

States he sees exactly what he saw in Whit when recruiting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claptonrocks Posted March 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 As for Sua'Filo.. He and Miller graded out close together.. Pff.... Miller 58 pass...54 run... Filo.....77 pass..48 run.. Lateral move basically but Filo can pass block alot better.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 He's cheaper than Miller. Maybe better, maybe not. Miller was an average member of the Bengals line while Sua-Filo was the weak link on the Cowboys line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esjbh2 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 XSF had a pretty decent rating for pass blocking. That's an upgrade in my book and a clear indication that this team actually wants to protect the chosen one. I'm good with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going out on a limb by saying Any of our olinmen last yr would ve wink link on Cowboys oline.. They along with the Stealers and Raiders believe in the foundarion is Oline on offense no? Very short limb lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 He got a good bit of playing time last year but let's not think he was intended as a starter by the Cowboys. He was the backup to Williams until CW went down, then became the starter by default. Presumably the Bengals want him as a starter, though he's only making 1 mil more per year than Redmond.

Wasn’t the Ketchup-Whisperer the OL Coach in Dallas last year? Point being: The starter wasn’t necessarily better than the backup. New question: Can he quickly unlearn what the K-W taught him?

I_C_Deadpeople Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Still a lot of work to do on the OL, hopefully in the draft because this gives me little comfort - hope and a prayer type of 'planning": “Do I think we’re in terrible shape? No, not at all,” Callahan said. “I think we have good, young talent that we’re excited about. I think the jump that Mike Jordan and Fred Johnson could make in Year 2, we’re counting on it. They have to make it. There’s really no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was merely pointing out that Callahan was spouting the typical team response to roster development - fingers and toes crossed that all young players develop and we have no injuries. They still need to add several OL in the draft IMHO and the higher up the draft the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claptonrocks Posted March 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Looking at Oline prospects I see a big dropoff after Austin Jackson at 6 or better.. 7 Ezra Cleveland .. 8. Matt Peart... 9. Isaiah Wilson All have promise but all arent wirthy of a 2nd riund pick Too many flaws that need corrected over time to be a high pick imo..

I did..i think hes in the mix with Cleveland and the others i mentioned..high to mid pick round 3... I saw one mock that had the. Bengals landing Josh Jones which would be good . Im thinking if the top 6 are gone Id be looking hard at backers or wr... Some have us drafting Zach Braun or Laviska Shenault in round 2.. Like i said before some first round picks will likely drop and Bengals draft first there plus every other top pick in each round is a huge advantage..

gupps Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 If there's not a good OL prospect at 2, LB is about the only other position I'd want to draft. Can always trade down if neither are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
