Basically here is a stripped down version of their cap space with Atkins a June 1 cut, Hart cut, and Uzomah cut as I see it.
One can argue the merits of Bernard, Tupou, Johnson, Jordan etc but I am not going to do that currently.
Basically, that gives the Bengals 32 roster players under contract. If 7 of the 8 drafted players make the roster then roughly you add 9 million in salary cap. Take out the 10M they like to carry over and Cincy has about 59.5M in cap room to add 14 players. Out of those 14 players, assuming some combination of 6 from K, P, QB2, RB4, WR6, S4, LB6 and probably Brandon Wilson together doesn't add more than 12-13M to the cap . That leaves Cincinnati with about 46.5M in cap space to sign 8 free agents.
Also, Cincinnati could cut Bernard and restructure Boyd and add 9m more. That would create around 55.5M to sign 9 FA including moving some of the cap hit into next season for when the cap goes back up significantly.
