Even if he's a backup, it's better than what we have now. We have guys moving around the line. Winston and Ogbuehi have apparently struggled all camp.

Now if he fails badly this year, then yes, we will have to look at him as a bust and probably look to the draft next year

Cam Robinson also could have been moved to offensive guard, as some teams had reportedly viewed him.

Also, what do you mean his "proper position"?

Left tackle isn't his proper position. Never was. He played offensive guard his first season and right tackle his second season. Both years he did much better than his senior year where he was put in at left tackle. He did well in the beginning and then started to struggle mightily. He struggled so bad that they ended up moving him between right and left tackle. He never played a full season at left tackle.

And bad players are always taken in the 1st round. It happens. But Ogbuehi's issues from college seem to be the same in his 3rd year in the NFL. Won't call him a bust just yet, but he hasn't looked good.
