More proof of how good Paul Alexander is

And highly drafted OL bust all the time.

All the picks taken the year got Smith were busts.    And Smith was our top guy and we were panned for taking him at the time.    Alexander made him into one of the top RT in the league.

Eugene Monroe has 25 more starts than Andre. Oher has 32 more starts than Andre. So I don't see how these 2 were busts and Andre is "one of the league's top tackle's".

I'd say when Andre is healthy, he's in the top half of of the league as far as RT's go, but he's been pretty inconsistent as far as playing like a top tackle. Munoz literally laughed at the idea of Andre being a top tackle. Andre himself just said he's "tired of being mediocre". The Bengals just drafted a pair of tackles. Andre didn't get a sniff on the FA market.

There's plenty of evidence that Andre isn't as great as some think. 
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
