The Bengals had offensive line issues long before they watched Andrew Whitworth move west, but that and the loss of Kevin Zeitler made the position a major liability.
They originally tried to replace Whitworth with Cedric Ogbuehi, but that was a foolish endeavor. Last offseason, they acted aggressively to try to improve the offensive line and, in part, repair that blunder. They signed Bobby Hart to play right tackle and parlayed their first-round draft pick into center Billy Price and left tackle Cordy Glenn with the help of a trade with the Buffalo Bills.
