You don't know that nor does anybody on this message board.  The draft picks might step up at tackle and center. Andre Smith may help. Winston not bad to have as back-up. You have no idea who gets drafted in this 2017 draft.  They can still add players.  They have Spring and Summer to coach these guys up.    Nobody is playing any games this weekend.  Come September we will see.  It could be that in September they are good enough and by November and December they are very good.  NOBODY on here has any idea how the drafted tackles in 2015 are going to be.  Certainly the draft plan taking them high was for them to heal from their injuries and as veterans be very good.  

If they get coached up and come together as a unit, and can fire off the ball and block, we can win.  If they had to play right now they would stink.  This is why you have Spring and Summer practice and Preseason.  They are big enough and talented enough. The coaches need to earn their pay and the players have to come together as a tight unit by eating together, doing off field things together as the Bengals Super Bowl O Lines believed in. Go bowling together or whatever they have to do to come together as a team, as an O Line that functions as a unit.

I am in favor of dumping the Hue Jackson split O Line formations. They never ever work anyway. Putting tackles out with WR never works. Garbage can that mickey mouse nonsense and just practice all Spring and Summer these guys playing tackle. Since these tackles have so much coaching up to do, just dump the Hue Jackson split Line junk. Hue is long gone anyway. Get away from the Wicky Wacky Bungle Plays and just work on protecting Dalton to get the ball to Green and others and open run lanes. DO THAT, AND WE WIN.
