Because Volson's was not good (6.04).
Jonah Williams had a 5.44.
And then you got guys like Billy Price who don't have RAS because they didn't test.
Andre had 4.02, which really isn't too far off from being considered "ok".

But then you look at FAs they brought in.
Cappa - 4.11
Karras - 4.93
OBJ - 0.70
Cordy Glenn - 5.37

Bengals haven't primarily gone for uber-athletic OL.

Eh, FA's and Day 3 picks are a lot different than premium picks.  Our 1st and 2nd round OL drafted this century and their RAS is...

Levi Jones 9.21
Eric Steinbach 10.0
Andre Smith 4.02
Cedric Ogbuehi didn't test
Jake Fisher 9.72
Andrew Whitworth 9.11
Kevin Zeitler 7.66
Billy Price didn't test
Jonah Williams 5.44
Jackson Carman didn't test
Amarius Mims 9.59

So, the average of the guys who actually tested was 8.09.  

Beyond that, in Booker's case, you have a guy at a position the club rarely drafts early, that doesn't possess the elite athletic traits the club typically looks for in a 1st round pick, and that the club hasn't visited with.  I have no idea where Dehner thinks he's a likelihood at 17.
