He rarely, if ever, loses vs power.
It comes down to what you want or expect from your OT.

It's not a killer flaw but is a flaw. He still has great hand work, shows plus strength and is a strong run blocker.
In theory, this can be fixed. Especially because he seems very well rounded everywhere else in his game. But it's enough to keep him from going top 10 IMO without it being a reach unless this class is just dreadful after all is said and done.

If you want a run oriented offense then McGlinchey can be a great OT for you. If you want to throw it 40 times a game, you might be best off looking elsewhere.

With the QB and RBs the Bengals have, it's probably for the best to morph this offense into a run oriented offense.
Unfortunately with the current players on the OL and the person coaching the OL, it's probably much easier said than done.
