Mack is a terrific player. If the Bengals acquired a player like that in the offseason, I'd be pretty excited.
This isn't the offseason. Offensive lines thrive on chemistry and familiarity. I'm not sure grabbing a center from another team and inserting him into the starting lineup would net the upgrade that people would expect. It takes time, even for excellent players, to get used to playing alongside new line mates.
