I'll spice this up by saying our starting 5 will look like this:

Jonah Williams - Clint Boling - Billy Price - Michael Jordan - Bobby Hart

Cordy Glenn will be a June cut and Jordan will beat out Miller in preseason.

I will counter your ballsy prediction by throwing one out myself:

The starting 5 will be:

J. Williams C. Boling B. Price C. Glenn B. Hart

You generally want your biggest, strongest guys on the right side and your most athletic guy at LT. Glenn has clearly lost a step at LT and was never really elite but he had road-grader capabilities in the running game.

Hart might be everyone’s favorite punching bag, but the guy is still a full 5 years younger than Whit was when he became a full-time OT. He can run-block, and with Glenn next to him, you have 700 lbs of beef to blow up opposing defenses. Plus, consider that Sample will likely line up next to him quite a bit.

I see big things ahead for Price in Year 2, and I believe Michael Jordan will be groomed to replace Boling. Outside of Glenn, you have the makings of a strong offensive line for years to come. And due to some smart drafting, they won’t cost a ton.
