You could arrange that OL a half dozen different ways, so this is as likely as anything else. However, if I'm the Vikings I'd want to try put them where I see them long term. And, for me anyway, that would mean switching Reiff and Cleveland or moving O'Neil to LT, Reiff inside and Cleveland to the right. That would mean when Reiff leaves in '21, you just have to find a LG and your tackles, center and RG are in year two or three at the same position. There's value in that. 

With that in mind, I think I'll stick with my earlier projection:  

LT: O'Neill
LG: Reiff
C: Brad
RG: Samia
RT: Cleveland/Udoh competition.

If the Vikings drafted Cleveland with the intention of having him play LT, they shouldn't be moving guys around this season.

O'Neill has arguably been at Top 10 RT (at a minimum) since his rookie year.  I would leave him there unless they think Cleveland would be better moving to the right side.

If Cleveland is ready to play Day 1... cut Reiff and re-sign Kline to play LG.  The cap savings alone would allow us to potential bring back Griffen or sign another edge rusher...  Or extend Dalvin.
