DT is the obvious one, depending on what happens with Carter.
Hill and Reader I would expect are gone after their current contracts are up, or maybe a 1-year extension like what Hendrickson got.
NT likely the next up to be drafted from defensive side.
For DE, they just drafted Murphy. If Ossai isn't in their plans, I can see a DE coming probably not in 2024 but likely in 2025.
DB I feel we're gonna be pretty good with CTB, Turner, Hill, and Battle in a couple years.
Slot CB will be a need though.
LB is locked up with Pratt and Wilson for the next few years.
They usually go BPA, but CB would be one with Awuzie's contract being up.
DT would be another, regardless of Carter
S could be another until we know how the current group fares.
The Bengals like to draft a year ahead, some of those positions that seem set will more than likely need more bodies. You can never have too many pass rushers or CBs.
