If the Bengals organization doesn't put all of their eggs in the o-line basket the next few years they are even more inept than they consistently show.  I'm not saying every draft pick but try to upgrade every year.  Not scrap heap re-treads as usual.  Draft Sewell and go after and get / pay the best free agent guard available.

Ehh...... The Stoolers didn't have a GOOD oline until about 2016 or so; before then, they continually ran out Trai Essex, Ramon Foster and Marcus Gilbert, below average and overrated guys, not to mention Pouncey, while good, is super overrated as well.

They also didn't get a competent LT until Beachum, but he wasn't a Villanueva-type (who is much better); they always had 1 or two really good players, but 2016 is when the whole line started to be excellent.
