Some may argue they need a touch more, like a vet corner, a true NT, and a complete TE, but you make a good point. The Bengals need to invest more in the trenches.
Currently the starters, sans Volsen, are average or above, but there's no depth or young players chomping at the bit to step up and take a position. Karras and Trent Brown are only on paper for the upcoming season, then it will be a scramble. Replacements may be found in the draft, but the Bengals recent history of finding and developing talent in the draft indicates the positions might still remain needs.
That said, I like having so many positions covered, as it opens up the draft a lot. That said, so many one year bandages makes me a bit uncomfortable, as it will be a mass shuffle for more bandages next year.
We shall see how it goes, but agree that solidifying the o-line around Burrow is the priority and the way to the Super Bowl.
