Quote: Being that so much of what the Bengals do in the running game is with a mauling approach, Andrew Whitworth should be able to make a natural full time transition to Guard. Yet, one question that's very uncertain at this time is whether Whitworth would prefer to remain with the Bengals if moved to Guard or would he rather go to a team that would consider him their starting LT?

That's a good question. He seems very loyal to the team and city, and acts like he would want to stay put. But, you never know in today's NFL if he would move on, or not.


A point of reference to this regarding Cincy:

Willie Anderson was a key fixture at Tackle for a long time (Cincy had an excellent O-line in the decade prior to this). Late in his career, as Cincy was drafting and retooling for the next generation of lineman, Willie left (or not re-signed by Cicny,, can't recall exactly). He played his last year or two in Baltimore, although age had finally gotten to him and he wasn't near the talent at the end as what he was in Cincy.


Maybe Whitworth will end up similar to Willie Anderson?
