Thornton's breakdown of the OL

[icehole3]

says Levi is still the best LT, his back was more of a problem than his knee. Then he missed a lot of practice, him and big Willie sat out the pre-season and the Bengals felt he could play in the pre-season and so the Bengals got pissed and decided to bench him early on, he's saying Levi is back in good with them, Levi was upset with the Big Willie release, but he wants to be here in Cincy.

When asked about Girlcheck, he talked about how tough Braham was, how he was great tackle in college and was very tough.

His view on ASmith is he felt all the guys (the top 3) are right tackles and that if he was GM he would grab a RT later, he said he feels the Bengals biggest need was scoring and pass rush, he wanted Wells or Orakpo.

yeah I'm glad he's not the GM...lol

Hmm Levi saying he thinks they don't need to draft a tackle in the 1st round - big surprise. Levi was horrible last year.

I'm thinking they'll start out Andre at RT and keep him there, unless Levi and Collins fail pretty miserably on the left side.

So when he was asked about Girlcheck, he changed the subject to Braham quickly, eh?

Musta been taught by his mama - if you cant say anything nice, dont say it at all
