Possible Cuts:
Nate Solder, OT, Giants
Bobby Massie, OT, Bears
James Carpenter, OG, Falcons
Weston Richburg, C, 49ers

1) Zach Ertz, TE, Philadelphia Eagles: There has been trade buzz about Ertz, but a straight release wouldn't be a huge surprise. He was not moving well last season on the way to 335 yards. With the 30-year-old due an $8.25 million base salary, it's hard to imagine he'd get that much in free agency.

13) Kyle Rudolph, TE, Minnesota Vikings: Rudolph has mentioned not being thrilled about his role in Minnesota and has zero interest in taking a pay cut. Perhaps the Elder High legend could return home to Cincinnati for the final years of his career.

Current Free Agents:

5. T TRENT WILLIAMS

9. G BRANDON SCHERFF

12. T TAYLOR MOTON

13. G JOE THUNEY

Prediction: Cincinnati Bengalsfour years, $57 million ($35 million guaranteed)

It’s no secret that Cincinnati’s offensive line has been among the worst in the NFL for quite some time now — they have ranked in the bottom five in PFF grade in each of the last four years. Last season, they came in at No. 30 in combined offensive line PFF grade.

Left tackle Jonah Williams and center Trey Hopkins performed quite well relative to their counterparts, but the rest of the line was a downright liability. And following the season-ending injury to Joe Burrow last year, they know they can’t afford to ignore the line in free agency.

They have the cap space to make a massive move in free agency to address that fact, and Thuney — who grew up just outside the Cincinnati area — could well be that big signing. Thuney ranks sixth among left guards in PFF grade since entering the league in 2016. He also has never ranked lower than 13th in a single season among all guards in WAR generated.

26. C COREY LINSLEY

33. T RUSSELL OKUNG

34. T ALEJANDRO VILLANUEVA

41. T DARYL WILLIAMS



Predicitions on Two Biggest Free Agents for Bengals besides AJ Green:

16. CB WILLIAM JACKSON III

Prediction: Cincinnati Bengalsthree years, $40 million ($22.5 million guaranteed)

28. EDGE CARL LAWSON

Prediction: Cincinnati Bengalsfour years, $55 million ($30 million guaranteed)
