In Ced I Trust

[Fan_in_Kettering]

Let's look at the scouting report on Cedric Ogbuehi prior to the draft:

STRENGTHS: Gifted athlete with foot quickness and ability to move easily in space. Has feet to slide and meet speed rushers. Easy weight shift to recover against counter moves. Is a second-level winner. Gets on top of linebackers quickly and can adjust in space to moving targets. Played in warp-speed offense and is well-conditioned. Keeps feet moving through contact on zone plays and sustains blocks until he wins. On gap plays, works to secure inside shoulder and gets defenders turned. Has played both tackle spots and right guard. Has matched up against premier college defensive linemen.

Let's stop there. Forget about the weaknesses. Focus on the positive. If Cedric is going to be the Bengals' left tackle, let's get behind him and be as supportive as possible. It's not his fault the Front Office drafted him.
