You could basically have swapped Carman for Humphrey and then Smith for Hill which would have potentially solidified C and RG, but RT was still a gap if anything happened to Reiff.
And of course Reiff couldn't stay healthy by the end of the season.
It still blows my mind that the Bengals decided to put Isaiah Prince in at RT over Fred Johnson or D'Ante Smith.

Personally, I'm nervous about D'Ante Smith.
There were concerns of him being able to keep his weight above 300 lbs, as he played below that in college.
He got above that for his Pro Day, getting up to 305 lb, but he's back down to 294 lb this past season with the Bengals.
Weight isn't everything, but his lack of weight was seen as a big detriment for him specifically.

I'd bet we win that game if we had them
