1. Jonah Williams was the best pass protector on the Bengals. He's the last person you want to replace on the OL.
2. Sewell has more experience at RT and less experience at LT than Williams does. So logic would dictate you put Sewell at RT because he's more experienced at RT and less experienced at LT.
3. People are looking "hard" to protect Burrow because of OG and RT pass protection. Jordan, Spain, Redmond, and Hart were bad pass blockers. Su'a-Filo was similar to Hopkins in that he was a good pass blocker but not good as a run blocker.
4. RT is just as important as LT in today's era, as there are just as good (if not better) pass rushers coming at the RT as there are at LT.
5. Sewell hasn't played football in over a year, so he might need more training and grooming than Williams. Do you want to take that risk for someone protecting the blind side?
6. Williams didn't play his rookie year because of his shoulder surgery, which the Bengals opted for him to do. They felt it would be better for him in the long run. He played his last year at Alabama on that injured shoulder, and played well. He probably could have played his rookie year if he didn't get the surgery.

I thought Fred Johnson played quite well at T (he did not look good at G)  at end of yr so if Jonah cant get off the matt and we do draft Sewell ...I think we may be good at Tackle
