We just have to have faith and trust Paul "The Process" Alexander.
In over 20 years as an O-line coach he has never had a a first or second round draft pick flop. So based in history both Cedric and Jake should develop into at least solid NFL starters.
We should also remember '09 when Paul's O-line featured. A second year undrafted free agent at center with zero NFL starts (Cook), a second year undrafted free agent at guard with 6 career starts (Livings), a journeyman OG who had been cut by the Panthers and was on his 3rd team in 3 years (Mathis), a second year fourth round pick at OT with 6 career starts, and a second year undrafted free agent with one career start at OT (Roland). They also had Bobbie williams and whitworth, but that team was coming off a 4 win season. No one expected them to sweep the division with that pile of scraps making up the O-line. But when you have a guru like Paul Alexander running the O-line anything is possible.
