Besides, it's not like Willis is the guaranteed starter. He's a backup DE.
My expectation of the DE depth chart (or at least how I would do it):
LDE - Dunlap, Willis, Wynn
RDE - Lawson, Hubbard (Hubbard is first DE off the bench)
If the Bengals draft another edge, I think Wynn is the more likely player to be cut over Willis. Wynn has never had more than 1.5 sacks in a season but he's been in the league five years. He has less chance to develop into a better player than Willis. Plus, Wynn actually costs less in dead cap if released but more toward the cap if kept over Willis.
I don't think Lawson can hold the edge for run downs. so i'd have someone in front of him starting.
