Yeah, the 2015 was one of the few drafts where I completely jumped the "wait 3 years to call a draft a complete bust" rule. Ogbuehi was the worst OL I have ever seen start in the NFL. Honestly he might be the worst starter of any position I have ever seen play. Good on him for sticking with it and turning himself into a decent backup, but man was he brutal with the Bengals.

(When I say starter, I mean someone actually intended to start. So a guy who's like 4th on the depth chart isn't the kind of guys I have in mind.)

It's crazy to think that the only person to last more than 4 years on the Bengals (and the only person to still be a starter in the NFL) from that draft was CJ Uzomah.
Ogbuehi: 4 years (Backup)
Fisher: 4 years (Out of NFL)
Kroft: 4 years (Backup)
Dawson: 2 years (Out of NFL)
Shaw: 3 years (Out of NFL)
Hardison: 2 years (Out of NFL)
Uzomah: 7 years
D Smith: 3 years (Out of NFL)
Alford: 1 year (Out of NFL)

Can't be anything other than an F.
