Hey Geoff, I enjoy your take, in the answers you provide to readers questions, and have one of my own. With our QB room having no NFL experience, what if we brought in Alex Smith. Don't think he'll ever play again, but let him coach Joe B Mike Bogan, Mineral, VA
MIKE: Thank you for reading. I'm so old, I remember Jon Kitna and Ryan Fitzpatrick, not just Bruce Gradkowski and AJ McCarron, so I'm a big fan of veteran backups because all of those guys ended up playing big roles either in the locker room or on the field or both. But it doesn't look like Bengals head coach Zac Taylor is as big of a fan.
Here's a guy that played quarterback. Who has scouted NFL quarterbacks for much of this decade. So he knows his QBs and in the two seasons he's been here he seems more intent on adding young talent. Plus, a veteran, say an Alex Smith, is going to cost some money that I don't think they have when it comes to an offseason they'd like to ink A.J. Green and Joe Mixon long-term.
With the return of Williams I am curious if it's possible they will put Price in at Right Tackle. I just checked his physical dimensions appear similar to Williams. I think that would make a SERIOUS line. Johnny Smith, Ellensburg, WA
JOHNNY:The only real question about Jonah Williams coming out last year is what some draftnicks labelled as his "raw dimension." His frame is only average in size (6-4 ½). But the Bengals answered with a resounding yes and took him with the 11th pick, making him the first offensive lineman taken in the 2019 draft. While his frame is average, his football brains, quickness and athleticism are why he was a standout SEC performer at Alabama. And from what I hear, Jonah has recovered well and is doing great in the virtual offseason. Arrow up.
Billy Price is an interior guy all the way and has played only center/guard in college and the pros. Plus, the Bengals have worked to develop more depth at tackle. With sophomore Fred Johnson and sixth-rounder Hakeem Adeniji, they don't need to make a guard-center into a tackle, and if it's not the linebackers, the offensive line is going to be my group to watch during training camp.
Which Bengal would be best able to compete in a golf match with Peyton Manning and Tom Brady? John Lamping, Cincinnati, OH
JOHN: Great question. With the departure of tight end Tyler Eifert, we have to do some scouting on that when they get back here. They may be lacking some depth there, but my guess is that punter Kevin Huber could compete a bit. But you could certainly tell which guy was retired and which guy wasn't. I don't know if many current players could duel with Peyton. He was really good last Sunday. For pure entertainment value, I might still suggest … the Ocho. Or the man formerly known as Pac. But that's just the kid in me. If it involves anything athletic, Adam Jones can do it. And he did to me in a round a few years ago on his home course here in Cincy.
