I would argue that the Bengals do, at least to some extent.

The Bengals have a good amount of money spent across the 9 starting OL/DL spots currently.
They brought in Hendrickson, Reader, Hill, Cappa, Karras, and Orlando Brown from outside.
The only guys who were drafted by the Bengals were Jonah, Hubbard, and Volson.

The big thing for the Bengals when it comes to OL/DL is they don't:
A) Draft good enough talent
B) Don't have a good plan to develop/use that talent

As it stands right now, the team has been good at developing talent at DB (Anarumo's specialty), LB, QB, and WR.
Saying this out loud now does make me worried about the upcoming draft since they likely will (or should) be drafting at positions they haven't been very successful at lol.
