The Maestro's body of work over the past 20+years of work is proof positive.  How many late round or undraft players has he coached up to pro bowl status?  I am tired of seeing players, who he covenants, masquerade as turnstiles especially at the center position.  He was part of the lost decade and the stench of his involvement during this black period will always be present.  He is very expendable as a coach!

His defenders will point to Willie Anderson, Levi Jones, Andrew Whitworth, Eric Steinbach, and Kevin Zeitler. However, what irritates me with that argument is that those players were all top-50 selections. They are expected to be very solid players at worst. Congrats to PA for not having those players be a disappointment? ::golfclap::

I'd be much more impressed if he could continually churn out talented OL that were late round picks.

The only thing I can hope for is that hopefully since Ogbuehi and Fisher were first and second round picks, they can play up to their draft status. Otherwise, PA has really failed at the one thing he's been good at in his coaching career with the Bengals.

Related note: If Ogbuehi is really struggling, what are the chances the Bengals and Anthony Collins can repair the bridge that was burned? He's only 31 and was solid in a swing tackle role.
