Edit:  The Bengals currently have $34.11M in cap hit to their top 5 listed WRs (Green, Boyd, Ross, Erickson, Tate), that is over 17% of the new salary cap of $198M.  I wouldn't expect the Bengals to be adding much more to that position group, in terms of salaries.  The problem with dumping a John Ross, is that his entire $5.44M cap hit would translate to dead cap in the same amount.

Yeah, cutting Ross is not an option because they have to eat his salary regardless, but they will be in the position of having a QB on a rookie deal which opens up spending more than you normally could at other position groups.
