As of right now, Spotrac says the Bengals have the 8th most money in the NFL committed to the secondary for 2022 and that's without potentially giving Bates $13m. They currently have almost 19% of the their total cap space spent on the secondary at $39.8m. Sure they will save money when Waynes is probably released, but most of that $10.8m savings will likely go right back into signing a new CB.

Bengals have spent a boatload on their DL and DBs.
They've relied heavily on cheaper/rookie contracts for their offensive and LB positions.

I think it's time to try to get more balanced.
Show the OL some love lol.
