The way to truly "open up" an offense is to protect the franchise QB, and develop a strong rushing attack.  Those are things that Penei Sewell can help with, Chase, not so much.  To not be constantly in a "must pass" situation, able to run the ball with authority, and protect the QB when you do elect to pass is the ultimate opening up of an offense.

Wasn't the latter paragraph the thinking when we took Ogbuehi and Price?

It doesn't matter what your philosophy is if you draft bad players.  Ross doesn't prove Chase won't open up the offense any more than Og and Price prove that Sewell won't open up the offense.
