Man you know this situation is dicey when we're rejoicing over picking up the Bengals oline scraps.

So true.  Ugh. Glad we're kicking the tires on someone because Elflein looked bad. But it's hard to think this is going to solve our problems.

Texans are signing him to their practice squad.

That does however mean that we could still get him.

Yeah, something tells me though, if we didn't put in a claim, we probably aren't interested.  And seems weird that as solid of a career as he had in college in addition to his measurables that no other team put in a claim either.  Must be some other concerns?

This could mean that we like our roster.   Michael Jordan may not have been a great LG (I dunno) but he played Center at Ohio state as well--maybe they want to move him there...It is concerning that Urban Myer (Jax) did not take him.

He might be the backup center and not a LG.  I firmly believe that Christensen will be at LG at some point during the season.

"His improved play was seen in Cincinnati’s first preseason game. Jordan only had eight pass blocking snaps against the Buccaneers, but posted an above average PFF pass blocking grade of 80.0. He took second-team reps during the second preseason game with Xavier Su’a-Filo getting the start over him at right guard."

    • The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.
    • I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.
    • He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
