The idea of heading into offseason down two starting CBs isn't a very wise thing for this team, with all of it's other needs to address. 

I agree that financially it's feasible NFL contract-wise.

From a business aspect(that fits the usual Bengals model)they would be more likely inclined to draft more CBs this draft.

Resign Dennard for a reasonable price or let him walk.

Decide what to do with Pacman.  Probably cut and possibly resign if the price is right.

Next season decide what to do with DreK.

Replace with much cheaper drafted CBs.

I'm actually more upset with our current safety situation than the CBs.

Iloka is not playing to the level he once was and Williams is not so good either.  Fej is meh.

Now what?!?  Shawn's dead cap money goes down quite a bit each year after this one.
