Good safeties over the top make cornerbacks better. The Bengals could cut Pacman Jones and save some dinero to get a better free safety than Shawn Williams. George Iloka isn't bad at strong safety but even he has his share of whiffed tackles.
In free agency the Bengals could pursue Eric Berry who had a nice year with the Chiefs or even look the almost-Bengals from the past like Donte Whitner and Dashon Goldson who are all free agents. If Cincinnati prefers to get a safety in the draft Ohio State's Malik Hooker might be there at #9.
My personal favorite defensive back in college is Minkah Fitzpatrick from Alabama. He's hard to accurately label because he can play both safety and cornerback and play both positions well. He's an old fashioned hybrid defensive back and Nick Saban says he's extremely intelligent along with being physical; basically a defensive back version of Vontaze Burfict minus the propensity for cray-cray penalties.
