This Offensive Line is still ASS

- Reiff and Spain are free agents
- Hopkins is washed
- RG is a total question mark next year. XSF is bad and made of glass. Carman hasn't shown much.

So looking at all that, you may as well say we're going to need a complete overhaul.

All this doesn't mean we were wrong to take Chase. It was probably the right choice anyway. But all of what I said above is also true.

The o line needs a significant overhaul in both the draft and FA. A quality interior o-lineman signed to a 3 year deal is preferable to a one year band-aid. The Bengals will not be a legitimate title threat until they field a quality line. The defense will need CB help and another pass rusher.
