Bengals 1st-Round Pick OT Amarius Mims Checking ‘All The Boxes’

Had the run on first-round offensive linemen turned out just a little differently, the Pittsburgh Steelers could’ve celebrated Georgia’s Amarius Mims as their first-round pick instead of Troy Fautanu. While it seems Fautanu was higher on their board, if the roles were reversed and the Bengals took Fautanu 18th overall instead of selecting Mims, Pittsburgh could’ve had a new face protecting QB Russell Wilson this season.

Though not as spotlighted as quarterback career arcs, there will be a battle to see which players turn out the best. Who will be the best offensive lineman from a solid class?
