#11. Cincinnati Bengals: Russell Bodine
PFF grade (position rank): -25.7 (34th)
2015 salary cap hit: $624,114
Bengals tailback Jeremy Hill caught a lot of flak from fantasy football enthusiasts who drafted him in 2015, as the up-and-down back rarely strung together consecutive consistent performances. A lot of Hill’s struggles could be attributed to Cincinnati’s interior line, however. Namely, Russell Bodine.
The king of the bench press at the 2014 NFL Combine, Bodine has yet to convert that extraordinary strength in the weight room into success on the field. Even though he’s played every snap for Cincinnati for two years running, he was actually graded more harshly by Pro Football Focus in 2015 than he was during his rookie campaign.
According to PFF, he was a better run blocker than only two other centers in the league. He wasn’t exactly stellar in pass protection, either.
