BILLY PRICE, Offensive Line

If you haven’t noticed the theme of attempting to attain recent high draft picks on their 1st contract, let me point it out here. Kansas City needs to add some pieces that will be around for a while at a low cost. Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Billy Price has the potential to be a steal.

Price has struggled to secure a spot in Cincinnati, but it was not too long ago that he ranked as a highly-touted center prospect from Ohio State. Andy Reid has a knack for getting the most out of failed offensive line projects, and Price could challenge Reiter for a starting spot. At the very least Price would be another versatile backup for the interior.

The best part: Price could be had relatively cheap. Most speculation says a fifth-round pick could pull the former first rounder from the Bengals in a trade.
