Hobsons choice: no need to invest more in the offensive line?

To me this is their first season where they've(coaches) had as much time as any NFL team to make their evaluations of picks and FA's.  

It's also their first season to evaluate what they have on the roster.

Jonah Williams
Trey Hopkins
M. Jordan
Billy Price 
John Miller
Bobby Hart
Fred Johnson

Cody Glenn is probably gone.

I don't know how they'd rate these guys, but I'd have to think they'll target at least 1 G and 1 T in FA and/or the Draft. Most of us know better than to get our hopes up about FA, but who knows? They might surprise us. As far as the draft goes, we'll get some extra picks for Andy and Dre K. But we might have to package them to move up in the draft in order to get a decent Olineman and still get a WR and some needed parts for the D. 

The front office and coaches have their work cut out for them this year.
