To be honest, I'm not very high on OSU O-Linemen after seeing so many fail. I also believe it was Michael Jordan, another OSU grad that allowed the hit on Burrow that got him hurt. Jordan has been God-awful.

Thankfully on this end, the two former OSU Offensive Lineman on the Lions, LT Taylor Decker and LG Jonah Jackson,  have performed much better than the two Bengals former OSU Offensive Lineman. Decker signed a contract extension last summer and went on to have a Pro Bowl caliber season. Jackson had his share of growing pains as a rookie in 2020 but he looks like a long term solution.   As many mistakes Bob Quinn made when he was the Lions GM, to his credit, Quinn did a very good job in drafting Offensive Lineman. 

With Joe Burrow coming off a major knee injury,  there's no question the Bengals need to prioritize protecting him far better. 

If they don't Bengal fans are gonna riot! When I see mock drafts where they have the Bengals passing on Sewell, I kinda laugh. If they did that, people around here would set the stadium on fire. Unlike the Eagles, who had a ton of injuries on the O-Line, but do have some talented players, the Bengals just flat out lack talent. Jonah Williams is the only decent player they have on the O-Line. Most of their other starters would be backups on other teams.
