Of course we chose Jonah

[*ochocincos*]

Jonah was a good prospect whom many considered the safest OL pick in the draft.
The selection made sense and the coaching staff likely had some part in why Jonah wasn't more effective in Cincy.
Bengals needed a LT at the time.
Jawaan Taylor wasn't considered a great fit for LT.
The closest other player who was thought to be a LT in the draft was Andre Dillard, who has not panned out.

Bengals could have chosen to keep going with Cordy Glenn at LT, who was not performing as desired, was not happy, he was getting older, and he was only signed through 2020.
Bengals could have chosen to go for a DL to groom as an heir to Dunlap or Atkins instead, but that would have been putting all their chips in on the Cordy Glenn train.

I don't blame the Bengals for the selection they made.
In fact, it was a good selection at the time, IMO.
