Sign two mid-range FA Guards. That shouldn't cost much and would be a huge upgrade.

Dehner floated trading a third for Rob Havenstein of the Rams to play RT.

Tyler Dragon is reporting that Hopkins will be ready to go by camp.
Trivia: In three games against the Bengals, Bo Jackson carried the ball 27 times for a total of 353 yards. That's an average of 13+ yards per carry.
In 33 (32 Starts) games at Arlington Stadium (not the BP Arlington, where he had 11 PA's) he OPS'd 1.023 over 136 PA's w/ 29 RBI's and 25 Runs. Project that out to a full season, and he'd have 175 RBI's and 150 Runs (65 HR's). Texas fans saw the very best of Bo.Originally Posted by texasdave

Kyle Rudolph, former UC Bearcat and Cincinnati native released by the Vikings.
Yay or nay?
Not a chance. He's so not as good as he thinks he is. Don't need that attitude in camp or around a young QB. They released him because he was whining about not being thrown the ball enough in the Redzone last year. They preferred to give it to guy's named Adam Thielen (caught 17 of 23 w/ 13 TD's), Justin Jefferson (caught 8 of 14 w/ 4 TD's), Irv Smith (caught 8 of 12 w/ 5 TD's), a RB (Cook and Abdullah caught a combined 5 of 6 w/ 2 TD's), or someone else (5 of 8 w/ 3 TD's), while Rudolph only caught 2 of 5 w/ 1 TD. Oh, and handing it off to Cook was also a very, very good idea [68 rushing attempts in the Redzone (most in the NFL) w/ 13 TD's]. In Rudolph's Defense, they did hand it to Mattison too often (26 times w/ only 2 TD's, but Rudolph would not be an option even here as Irv Smith is a better TE).
Rudolph's career has been over for a few years. MIN hung onto him too long as it was.

Now,...if you want to add Jared Cook, who got released today, then absolutely, yes.

Would be a great addition at a very, very cheap cost. Burrow could use him.

Kyle Rudolph is a Cincinnati guy but went to Notre Dame instead of UC. I'd be somewhat interested but probably not at a price he'd be interested in. The Bengals have too many other needs to throw much money at a declining TE in an offense that is so 3 WR heavy.
Interesting choice of words, went to ND instead of UC.
Anyway, I was thinking about this and it seemed like a Bengals type of signing. Rudolph is pretty involved in the local community, he signs a year or so deal with the Bengals and then lays the groundwork for a career after football in the area.
It reminds me somewhat of what the Bengals did with AJ Hawk.
I didn't mean anything by that as if the two are apples to apples. I was just stating that he went to Notre Dame and not UC, as was previously mentioned.

Either way, I stand corrected. Thought he was a UC product but I may have been thinking of Travis Kelce.
For the Sewell truthers, Matt Miller mock today:
5. Cincinnati Bengals—OT Penei Sewell, Oregon
Get used to this one. You’ll see Sewell predicted here all the way to April 29 given the intel available. I was hearing from league sources in December that Sewell was already locked in as the Bengals’ target in Round 1
Well, that's what those words mean. He was here. If they don't keep him, he will have been lost/subtracted. I headed out the door today with two shoes on my feet. If I don't return with them, I have lost them. If I do return with them, I haven't added them. ---M2

Never before has there been so little intel available.
Not one whiff of Watt to Arizona. Stafford to the Rams was a surprise.
Nobody knows anything.

Never pay league-average or better for a Guard. Never ever. It's a complete waste of resources.
Never draft a Guard in the first four rounds. Never ever. It's a complete waste of resources.
There is no argument that can justify it that I can't completely blow out of the water.
