Maybe after cuts, but not likely stud LB or OL is available unless team is wishing to cut salary and cap as any vets on 53 man on first week of season gets guaranteed money.

For year one here, ZT can only play with the hand he was dealt plus the current draft picks. It is up to him to convey his needs and no doubt that happens in the 'daily discussions' we hear so much about; but ZT does not sign players. 

In any well run organization, middle to upper management is always discussing what is known as "Talent Management' - strengths, weaknesses, gaps, who needs coaching, who needs help, etc. By no means am i assuming the Bengals are a well run organization.
