Yup, I am really glad they retained one of their safeties ( though I was hoping for Nelson, but Iloka came at an okay price, so that's fine too) and I really thought Adam was the #1 can't-lose guy this year for the Bengals and he actually came at $1m less than the 3yr/$21m I predicted. So there should still be a pretty good defense for the team.

That said, now it's time to look at adding in both FA and the draft at WR. They have the money to do so even if they want to claim they're poor. Go get Matthews and Boldin, then draft a guy to learn for a year (because he's almost certainly not going to be ready in 2016). Eifert is an injury waiting to happen, and you can't just leave AJ all alone with Tate, Krummy, and some rookie who probably won't be ready.
