The Bengals got Joe Burrow busted up last season, by trying to put a swiss cheese OL together, from "spare parts" from other teams.  How did that work out?  The Bengals first, and foremost item of urgency this year, is to ensure that Joe Burrow is adequately protected.  That means going out and getting good talent for the job, weather through free agency, the draft, or a combination of the two.

Many Bengal fans seem to have this pipe dream, where the Bengals magically solve the OL with some cheap-ass free agent acquisitions, so that the team can focus on getting the shiniest new WR or TE on the draft board.  That's all well and good, but Joe is going to have a difficult time finding any open receivers from his hospital room.  

Will Steelers guard Matt Feiler continue to be the teams best lineman? - Behind the Steel Curtain
This is a terrible take. He is a good offensive lineman and he is only 29 years old. He is actually a better RT than a LG but he can play both well. That article by his own team's website says it all. My point is if they can sign him for around 3/21M then he can be penciled in for RT and if they want Sewell and he is there at 5 then great. Feiler can play LG. 

The Bengals need 5 competent offensive lineman. He would certainly qualify.
