Since drafting Joe the O-Line picks have been...
Hakeem Adeniji 6th round
Jackson Carman 2nd Round
D'Ante Smith 4th round
Cordell Volson 4th round
We drafted none last year.
Problem with this is that Frank Pollack has ZERO ability to develop and cultivate talent, even if we did draft it early.
His only credit is that he was given the keys to a lambo (Dallas's O-Line) and didn't wreck it. The best we can do is replicate that here by getting proven free-agents with good track records and handing Polack the keys.
That said, seeing pundits and the Bengals org insist that "this guy totally isn't worth getting this early" only to see these players do well on other teams gets really, really old.
