Sewell or trade with QB needy teams?

I really think this is the best strategy. You have two lineups here...

Sewell - Thuney - Hopkins - Spain/XSF - Williams

OR

Williams - Thuney - Hopkins - Spain/XSF - Sewell

Sewell has never played RT, so I think option one is better. Even if they don't get Thuney, you run with...

Sewell - Spain - Hopkins - XSF - Williams

and I think that line is the best line Cincinnati is going to field. You have replaced Hart with Sewell, basically, and then replaced Jordan with Spain. This is all dependent on Sewell working out, but from the tape I have seen, I feel confident that he will. You will still have some long-term question marks at G as Spain and XSF could very well not be the answer, but I believe they would provide better play than we have seen for most of the year (I think Spain has played quite admirably). Still, best case scenario would be grabbing Thuney and Sewell.
