I'm Not Seeing Any Great Left Tackles

Very true. I don't view Smith the same type of player as Ogbuehi, just using him as an OT example. They're both totally different tackles.

Ogbuehi was a boom-bust pick. He has a high ceiling but also low floor. It will take time for him to improve, I didn't like the pick, but there's still a chance with him.
