I think there is a good chance Reiff retires.  I guess that ankle injury was pretty bad.  

I don't think they will go with Raimann.  They have two developing OTs in Smith and Adeniji that were pressed in to development at OG due to such poor play by Carman.  

Fred may be pretty close on the veteran additions, but I wouldn't be surprised if Hopkins is let go to sign Jensen.  They could offer him a lesser deal to compete at OG with incentives based on playing time.  

I am torn about Lindenbaum.  His arms are SO SHORT.  He's incredibly athletic, but I don't see the Bengals deviating from their minimum standards that they want out of positions.  He could very well be there now, as well.  I just don't see it happening.
