With an aging Reilly Reiff being a one year bargain signing, and Jonah Williams being healthy for a total of 8 games in 2 seasons, the Bengals need quality shelf stock, now. Fred Johnson and Hakeem Adeniji looked like they didn't even belong in the league last season, Two Tackles should be a must.That would not be good to ignore other positions,and adenji did not look bad. Willie Anderson even praised him on Twitter at the time for his feet. Fred Johnson is a average ot at best,when they tried him at guard he did very bad. Michael Jordan and Bobby hart was the major weak links. There's pics of Bobby hart looking stupid.
Interior isn't looking like a Granite wall, either. Hopkins is coming off a severe injury, and Price has still yet to show anything worth keeping around past this season. Spain and XSF are fair to average Guards, but the shelf is pretty barren after them. At least one interior OL, preferably a man that can play well at both Guard and Center is also desperately needed.
The simple truth is that the Bengals need to build the OL, and develop a steady rushing attack. If they fail to do so, they are putting Joe Burrow at serious risk of another season ending, and possibly career ending injury.
