The way to truly "open up" an offense is to protect the franchise QB, and develop a strong rushing attack. Those are things that Penei Sewell can help with, Chase, not so much. To not be constantly in a "must pass" situation, able to run the ball with authority, and protect the QB when you do elect to pass is the ultimate opening up of an offense.
What would your line look like if the pick is Sewell? I know some people say start him at G, but with his potential, any plan that doesn't involve moving him to LT at some point seems like a waste to me. I would probably start him at LT and work out the kinks as soon as possible with Williams moving to RT.
I still think the way to build the line would be to trade down to acquire picks and pick up an true OG since that's where the real problems on the line are.
