I think they are committed to improving the o-line. Two factors to consider here.
1.) Chase is a true generational talent and will change the nature of a game all by himself. No one I can think of has criticized the Bengals for taking him first (at least no one with a credible opinion). Chase is much more impactful at his position than Sewell.
2.) This draft is a "tale of two cities", so to speak. It's not very deep overall, especially past the first round. But it's incredibly deep with regard to offensive linemen. Sewell is a good one, but there are several others who are within spitting distance of him. One or two of which should be available in the second round. Jenkins, if the Bengals can land him, will make this a much better draft for them than if they'd picked Sewell first. Guaranteed.
GO STRIPES!!!
