"I've mentored and been there for a lot of guys on this team," Whitworth said. "Yeah, there's guys who are concerned. I'm concerned as well. There's nothing I can do about it. It's out of my hands."
The 10th-year veteran was surprised — just like everyone else — when the Bengals took Cedric Ogbuehi (oh-BWAY'-hee) in the first round and Jake Fisher in the second. Ogbuehi is still recovering from knee surgery, making him more of a down-the-road option.
Whitworth said the team's refusal to discuss its plans with him makes it difficult for him to function as a leader,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping.

Several days later, Whitworth still doesn't know what to say.

"The starting five,Cheap Hockey Jerseys, they'll be out there, and I'm on the starting five,Cheap Jerseys Free," Smith said, referring to the line. "Who knows where it may go? Just compete and don't worry about it."

Right tackle Andre Smith is entering the final year on a three-year deal and doesn't know what to make of the Bengals' decision to go for two tackles at the top of the draft.
"I've tried to find out where I am,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping," he said Monday. "Not about the (contract) extension as much as: What's my status?
