Will We Bring In O-Linemen?

If they bring in new o-line players they will most likely be players cut from other teams.  Maybe an older guy that still has a little gas in the tank but was overshadowed by newer, younger players.  Even then given the importance of a solid o-line, most castaways probably won't be worth a damn either.  Several teams have already lost o-line players to injury during camp and the preseason so I imagine they will be much more aggressive than the Bengals when it comes to picking up players that might be worth a darn.

tl;dr Too early to tell.  P.S. I'm 6 beers into a good Sunday with Monday off work so probably not expressing my thoughts well.  :)

What typically happens is a few veterans on good money deals, are cut in favor of cheaper young talent.  You know, the salary cap game.  Now, I haven't studied all the teams, their salaries, draft picks for potential replacement well enough to tell you who will likely be out there.  But, every year it seems a few good vets are available at cut time.
