Imagine trying to work in PR for this organization right now...

The fluff is in overdrive, I had a slight moment of weakness were they started me thinking "well the NFC south is soo bad......." 

3 win team even with a great draft.

Corbett has always been a good, lineman.  

I know that natural response is, "deep, he's a gard, he can't play center, derp!" 

I honestly don't see how he could be worse than what we had at center this last season.   Most NFL linemen have position flexibility.   Instead of stating he sucks being a center before he plays a snap for us...why don't you let our veteran line come together.  Corbett 8s going to have 2 good guard on either side of him. That's going to help not just him, but both our tackles too.  

I also wouldn't rule out the team drafting a center if they get the opportunity to do so. 

Dan and Dave have busted their tails to improve the oline, which was horrible at best, last season.  

I personally am looking forward to seeing the starting 5 come together. 

You win and lose in the trenches. I like the efforts they have put in. All quality lineman.  Our LT will benefit greatly to not just consistent, but improved guard play by the man beside him. 

This oline, on paper, has the talent to be the best this franchise has ever had.

I am most concerned about the exchanges when you have a guy who has not done it full time. 

Shouldn’t I be? Bad snaps errant hikes, all that stuff, not a concern? 

I understand that whoever takes the job is in the best position a new guy could have in terms of having those guards on each side. Except one of those guards has to cover/support the questionable LT in pass sets.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
