I think it has a lot to do with the Bengals past success in hitting on the draft in later rounds on guys like Geno, Sanu and Marvin Jones and us hoping the Bengals will hit on all their picks because they used to have great drafts. But we tend to have huge expectations for guys who haven't even played a single down of football and hoping and assuming they will be very good. Guys like Billings/ Hardsion Dawson come to mind or guys like James Wright who make a few nice plays and people expect them to be great.  Hopefully Westerman pans out we need all the help we can get on the O-line. The Bengals need to kill this draft their last three haven't been great coupled with the fact that they don't fill major needs in free agency. 

Completely agree with this.

Whilst people are sceptical on the OT's we drafted there seems to be a bit of an assumption/consensus that Westerman is the answer in the interior.

We've not seen him at all at the moment (or Billings for that matter on the DL) ...yeah, they're NFL.com draft profiles may sound great and Alexander may talk him up (like he did for Ogbuehi) but that's not worth a  whole lot till we seen them in a regular season game
