This is where drafting is going to be crucial to maintaining success.
Teams like the 2 in our division seem to always have good to solid defenses through strong drafting/developing. The Bengals will need to do this to maintain their Super Bowl window. The offensive stars are going to eat a lot of cap (as franchise QBs and WRs should in todays NFL) so they will need to keep the defense strong with young players. They should be able to re-sign Wilson and Bell to reasonable deals but I doubt they will retain Reader and Awuzie if they continue to perform as they have.
Tee is going to be tough. I can see him getting huge $ somewhere else but that would be a gigantic loss for the offense.
