According to Ken Weinman from Baltimore 105.7 The Fan, Center Casey Rabach (not that Casey Ryback) is deciding whether to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals or Baltimore Ravens.

When Rabach isn't cooking dinner aboard the USS Missouri for Captain Adams, saving a stripper from mortal doom, Rabach is a starting center in the NFL. Drafted by the Ravens in the third round of the 2001 NFL Draft, Rabach played four seasons in Baltimore before signing with the Redskins, starting 95 games in six seasons in Washington.

According to Pro Football Focus (you knew that was coming), Rabach's grade of -14.3 rated third-worst on the team behind Jammal Brown and Trent Williams last season.

We highly doubt Rabach would be signed as a replacement for Kyle Cook, who recently signed as a restricted free agent, expected to start practicing with the team on Thursday. Cook is rated as one of the better offensive linemen behind Andrew Whitworth and Bobbie Williams, scoring the the team's second-highest run blocking score of 7.3.

RE:

He’s started every year at center since 2004, so beyond that, I don’t know.

Depth is crucial.

Bengals are thin at everything.

This would be good depth and experience but...

what about Donte Whitenr or a new gaurd. We need to get impact players. MB come on! Sign Whitner, Leron Mclain, and a gaurd and we should be solid going into the regular season.

These FA moves are puzzling.

WR is not a position of concern. If you sign someon on OL, it has to be a guard. Reggie Stephens is a more than adequate backup at C from what I saw last preseason.
