OK, here we go. Easy stuff first.
1) Keep Jonah. Our only guaranteed starter returning. He is a decent but not superior LT.
2) Upgrade C. Jensen is the primary target. Release Hopkins. Jensen will be pricey but Hopkins going will save us $6+ million. Unlikely Linderbaum falls to us.
3) Find a RT in FA or via trade. Unlikely we get a starting RT at #31. I'd be willing to deal a pick for Collins.
4) Re-sign Spain and go get a mid-tier FA G or fill with a draft pick (Zion Johnson, Kenyon Green, etc). I think the Bengals do not like to pick out of need and would rather have this taken care of pre-draft because we pick so late. IF an OL falls to us and we are overloaded, we can always swing a deal.
