The team needs at least two backers this draft fairly high in the slot positions.  They also need a find in TE and of course RG RT.  

They won't have any worthwhile comp picks this year so they'll likely only have one pick in each of the first four rounds. And you can't rely on a 5th round pick contributing significantly in any way, at least not for at least 1-2 years. So the Bengals likely have to utilize FA to help fill those gaps.
