Hobsons choice: no need to invest more in the offensive line?

Jordan may work out, but generally 4th round picks don't.

There were 93 OL drafted in the fourth round from '01-'16.

Only 19 (about 1 in 5)) started for more than 4 years (any year with 8+ starts)

Only 18 had years year's worth of start (64).

Former Bengals Mike McGlynn and Russell Bodine were two of the 19 who were starters for 4+ years.

I’m assuming the numbers are even worse for undrafted players ? That’s why I don’t think Fred Johnson will amount to much. He played at a big time program at Florida and 32 teams passed on him in every round. Not saying undrafted guys can’t workout but usually they go undrafted for a reason and rarely workout percentage wise.
