Year 1: Ogbuehi played in 5 games, taking 65 terrible snaps on offense.
Year 2: Ogbuehi played in 14 games, starting 12, taking 677 terrible snaps on offense.
Year 3: *Andrew Whitworth Leaves*
He was heading into his 3rd year, not his 1st. IT'S NOT HINDSIGHT. OGBUEHI HAD ALREADY PLAYED 742 OFFENSIVE SNAPS OVER 2 YEARS PRIOR TO WHITWORTH LEAVING.
Jesus, how clear can I be on this?

If you offer an All-Pro a lowball 1 year contract, well below the other 3-4 offers he got, that's your fault, not his.

....just forgot about that one again too... man.
While I absolutely agree on the premise (and you're right about after year 2, we needed to see no more), he didn't have 65 terrible snaps in 2015; he came in as an extra T and heavy TE and he played fairly decently, in the small sample size.
