They need to hit on another OL in later rounds for depth.  

You really think they are going to retain Higgins?
I think it's extremely likely he wants to go be WR1 on another team (or at least paid like one).
Also, I don't think Bengals can afford to dish out so much $$ for a NT once they have Burrow and Chase under veteran contracts.

Bottom line is we are going to see at least 4 of the following guys walk within the next couple years to make room for $80+ mill in cap for Burrow and Chase every year:
- Higgins
- Boyd
- Hurst
- Williams
- Bell
- Wilson
- Reader
- Awuzie
- Pratt

(Not even including Bates since he's almost assuredly gone after this season)
