Tee has a lot of strengths as a WR, but his biggest weakness seems to be an obvious discomfort playing in the slot. I can still remember Chase last summer saying he was trying to get Higgins more comfortable moving both outside/inside, but that certainly didn't happen for a few different reasons. So last year they wanted to move Chase all over the place, but WR2 was only comfortable outside and WR3 was only effective in the slot. Chase being a position-less receiver only works if the other receivers on the field are versatile too. Otherwise, the defenses aren't quite as stressed with the offense.

 

The coaches are hoping that Iosivas and Burton will eventually be able to play effectively on the inside as well as the outside. Iosivas is working on that now in Georgia with his personal WR coach.

 

Think that's right. He's going to go be WR1 somewhere doing what he does best. Also worth noting, they did franchise tag the guy. He's not gone yet and they will want to get their money's worth. Know he wants to have a big year.

I'm not sure how far along Joe was with this meal, but I've heard over and over that you should never interrupt a celebrity while they're eating. Maybe there's more tolerance if you're a teen.

1st base line seats at GABP are pretty nice for watching the river & much cheaper. God knows you need some distraction from whatever's happening on the field.

If they're going to do it, they need to go back to 1968-79 (not 1980 - I want to see gray facemasks), even if means buying a second orange helmet for everyone. The one in the tweet is too close to what they have now.

…and if they ever do throw-back jerseys, it should NEVER be the black jerseys with the white side panels.  😡

Orlando Brown Jr.'s struggles spotlighted in new OL rankings

The Bengals double-dipped at offensive tackle this offseason, signing Trent Brown in free agency and selecting Georgia’s Amarius Mims in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. But the unit also needs left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. to get back to his old form. The former Chiefs and Ravens lineman earned a career-low 66.1 PFF grade in 2023 which ranked just 45th among offensive tackles.

OLT Round One next year?

Not a bad bet esp is a good one is out there.

Might take a couple of years to happen, but Mims has all of the physical tools to eventually slide to the other side and become an elite LT in the NFL. That is, assuming that he becomes the type of tackle they expect him to be, and that they can sign him to a long term extension after his rookie contract is over. Of course right now they are even having trouble signing him to a rookie contract, despite the fact that the contract is slotted and should be easy to get finalized.

Not likely, OBJ still has 3 years on his current contract. It would be a very un-Bengal like thing to do. I think when his time is up here you move Mimms to the left side as he is athletic enough to do it, then draft a RT
