2011 NFL Draft Grades: Clint Boling Adds Depth to Bengals Offensive Line

2011 NFL Draft Grades are in for Bengals Who Take Clint Boling in Fourth Round

2011 NFL Draft Grades are in for the Cincinnati Bengals, and the team that needed a quarterback ahead of the 2011 NFL draft took some much needed pass protection in the fourth round.

You can't get a better pick than Clint Boling in the fourth round. By the fourth, all the real proven prospects are taken. What is left are players with big time question marks.

Boling is one of those rare late draft picks that can actually crack the starting lineup to start 2011. He has the footwork and upper body strength to slide inside to guard.

If the line suffers the same injuries they have last couple of seasons, Boling can easily slide to tackle. This is a versatile player the Bengals will enjoy having.

I even liked the Bengals taking safety Robert Sands in the next round. He is another player that can figure in at some point at the safety position. The Bengals killed this draft in the middle to late rounds.

Grade for this pick: B+
