It's easy to say something like "we can fix the OL with FAs, and 3rd round draft picks", but how well does that strategy generally work out in Bengal land?
For one, finally having a good coach.
Two, hopefully signing Jensen in free agency (we'll see if Mike finally lets Marvin be aggressive in free agency like he's saying he will be) to solidify the middle of our line.
Third, being active in free agency for tackles and guards.
Fourth, Pollack hopefully being good at evaluating players in rounds outside of the first two.
It's doubtful that any of the scenarios I suggested happen, and it might better to just go the safe route because our line is not something we want to chance.
