Hart was the #40 starting OT according to PFF.
XSF had 53 starts for two different teams before coming to the Bengals.
Hopkins and Hopkins are not great players but they are starter quality.
These guys are not "bottom of the roster fluff" that you can just replace with anybody.
XSF was a backup immediately prior to signing with the Bengals. How many of his starts were due to injury?
Topou is easily roster fluff.
Price is a complete bust. Fluff.
Gio was 49th among 51 qualifiers in yards/carry, yet has the 12th biggest cap figure among RBs.
All easily replaceable.
Geno is tougher, but the facts are that he's 33, dealt with lots of recent injuries, produced nothing last year, and costs 9+ million.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
