Sign one of the top 3 FA centers.
Sign on of the top 3 FA RT's.
Move Hopkins to RG, and extend him two year at 4.5 per to get his number down.

So with only two major signings you have anchored the ends and middle of your OLine, you have a veteran who knows the scheme and is coming off a major injury the previous year (Hopkins), who the team still likes and has faith in to bridge between the new C and T.

Carman moves to LG.  Left is his natural side, and now he has excellent veterans on either side of him to help him mature into the position.

So in the end you have this:

Williams
Carman
Top C
Hopkins
Top T

You only pay big for two upgrades, but arguably upgrade 4 (if Carman pans out, which I think he will at LG).

Thoughts?

Love everything but keeping Hopkins at RG. I haven't seen him play well at Guard. He HAS played well at Center though.

I either keep him at Center or cut him. Great point about Carman at LG, he looks much more natural there. D'Ante Smith 
also looked great at LG in the Preseason last year when he was healthy. I would do something like this instead of keeping 
Hop I would cut him and go like this to be somewhat like your scenario Stewy...

LT - Jonah Williams
LG - Jackson Carman/D'Ante Smith/Early Draft pick
C - Bozeman
RG - Austin Corbett/Laken Tomlinson
RT - Morgan Moses/Trent Brown
