Get Thuney and either a draft pick to push Hart at RT by Fred Johnson.  Johnson did pretty well in his limited opportunity at LT last year, and is built like a RT.  I would rather, as many have said, go after a guy like Thuney for the RG position and Whit at the LG position than invest any money in Glenn for any spot on the line.  

I remember reading somewhere that Taylor emphasizes the middle of the offensive line and I can't think of one that might be better, and relatively affordable, than Whit-Hopkins-Thuney.  Have Williams at LT, Hart and Johnson battle it out at RT, and draft another OT to develop.  

I love Whit and want to see him retire a Bengals but I don't think it makes sense at 37 for him or the Bengals to play for a rebuilding team. I love Thuney he's been a stud since starting as a rookie. Interior line play doesn't get the average fan excited but's it's extremely important. This is a great free agent guard class Thuney is the number one free agent guard if they can't get him I would look at Brandon Scherff or Graham Glasgow. Glasgow might be the most realistic option his brother Ryan already plays for the Bengals and he might be cheaper with Thuney and Scherff more than likely to get signed first. Jordan, Miller and company can battle for the other guard spot and we can look for a RT in the draft.
