Some might say that the feeling is mutual.
The Bengals say they can't wait for him to start blocking. Whatever team signs him needs to take out a policy to cover their QB.

Also praising Bobby Hart and saying that he's played well?

Yeah, Ced should just be happy he was drafted by a team with a soft hearted owner that has very strong loyalty policy. Most other teams would have cut his ass after year 2.

He can hit the bricks along with Sloppy Fart.

I just found it ironic that Ogbuehi is looking forward to second chances in a new environment, when in reality he should have just been counting his blessings that he's made a few million dollars more than he likely should have.

I'm sure Andy will miss him.
Hell Russell Bodine had a pretty good year after he left. Maybe the same thing happens to Cedric.

If he thinks Bobby is playing well, that explains why he sucked so much. His standards are below rock bottom.

I really doubt he gets a second chance somewhere else. He is a bust because he just stinks.

I'm pretty confident that some team will pick him up, just to see if there is anything there that Alexander and Pollack might have missed, that's just how the league works. But, like yourself, I really don't see him catching on anywhere, and magically developing into a starting Tackle.

What's even funnier, is that he want's to be looked at as a RT only. Have you ever noticed anything in his game that speaks "aggressive, powerful run blocker"? Yeah, me neither..

There is enough film of him standing on the field, hands on his hips, and looking back several yards watching his QB pull himself up from the playing surface. That's all any future team needs to see imho.
Some say you can place your ear next to his, and hear the ocean ....

Yep, and his run blocking looks similar to an awkward TE, running a short hitch route.

I predict he gets picked up for an offseason, dropped before 2019 starts and then out of the league.
Worst tackle I've ever seen, and he only lasted this long thanks to the worst owner in pro sports.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

This would be a really fun time to go back and revisit the 2015 draft threads. From what I remember, about half the boards were like "WTF?" on the selection, and a lesser contingency was like "Just wait til he heals up, he's going to be great!".

Whoever signs him will cut him at the end of training camp (if not sooner)
