Alexander has been the Bengals O-line coach for 21 years and until we drafted Og and Fisher he had never had a high draft pick that did not pan out (unlike every other team in the league). Only one O-lineman taken in the top three rounds over the last 22 years has failed to become a starter (Rod Payne, 3rd round, 1997)
On the other hand Paul has developed many players who were not high draft picks. Mike Goff was a 3rd rounder who was an NFL starter for 10 years, Rich Braham was released by the Cards and signed off the street by the Bengals, Stacy Andrews was a 4th round pick. Kyle Cook was an undrafted free agent. Nate Livings was an undrafted free agent. Anthony Collins was a 4th round pick. Boling was a 4th round pick.
