Yeah, it was only a few years ago (2013?) that PFF rated him the top right Tackle in all of football iirc. If he's healthy, I think he can still play whether it's at OT or OG. I'd still like to see them add Mangold (I'm assuming he'd be pretty reasonable salary wise) to compete at OC/OG and let Smith compete at OT.

instant pro bowler! joseph campbell! do you hear your archetypes singing?!

Never said he was gonna be a pro bowler, just big like Dallas guards ( for run blocking ). The myth might be your reading comprehension skills.

perhaps your reading skills shall be summoned. it is i who am suggesting he will be a pro bowler, since somebody's gotta be it on this pitiful team

perhaps.lol

Gilberry is coming back, but it looks like the Maualaga era is coming to end. I'm pretty sure the Bengals were going to cut him a couple of weeks ago if they had signed Whit, but now that they added Minter they decided it was time.
