Starters:

LT- Williams

Bench:
T- Prince, Adeniji
G- Smith
C- Hill

Practice squad
C - Lamont Gaillard

They're still a G short and a couple practice squad guys but the only real area of need is another good backup G. I don't see how they re-sign Spain unless they're willing to push Carman and to a lesser extend Smith back a spot, or unless Spain is brought back (agrees) that he's starting off behind Carman. I'd prefer they go with Carman and find a cheap(er) option to fill out the roster before they grab a couple guys in the draft. 

There are a few good guys left for their needs, vets and younger guys. 

Ryan Bates. (RFA-visited Vikes and Pats and there are some rumblings that he may sign with Chi after his visit with them)
Ereck Flowers. A previous Bfine mention. Played well with WFT last year. If he doesn't get a starting gig, he's a guy the Bengals should be eyeing.
Trai Turner. Guy people wanted last year. Still <30y/o and our allotment of Trai, Tre, Trea, Trey's is dwindling with the release of one yesterday. Like Flowers, it may come down to him signing as a backup.

EDIT: So, apparently they re-re-signed Fred for 2022? I guess plug him into a backup T and move Adeniji back to G...or ignore everything i just said. 

This OL rotation makes me want to give Spain 18 mill


It’s horrible. If anyone gets hurt again it’s bad news
