This gives the Bengals $42,979,130 in current cap space, per overthecap.com. This is calculated via the Bengals’ $149,795,718 in top 51 cap hits in addition to their $2,363,427 in dead money, which is mostly made up of Carlos Dunlap’s remaining prorated signing bonus.

As of this posting, the Bengals have the fifth-most cap space in the league, and free agency officially begins a week from now.

We basically have four; Jackson, Lawson, Green, and Alexander.  And it just so happens that CB and Edge rusher are two of the more expensive positions to replace.

Bengals should be able to fill those four spots and still upgrade a couple more.  I am not saying we don't have a lot of cap space.  Just pointing out that it would be better to have less cap space and all starters under contract.
