The WR FA class is quite deep with a variety of good options. I don't think they'll be at the top end with guys like Diggs and Godwin, but I can see them looking at a B tier guy like Dionte Johnson, Darius Slayton, Amari Cooper, or JuJu. Not a particularly inspiring WR draft class, with 5 currently ranked in the Top 50.
With the Edge rusher FA class, honestly, some big names, but if we're paying a star edge rusher over 30, it needs to be Trey. Josh Sweat and Michael Owenu are the only decent options under 30, and then you start getting into 1st round dissappointments like Chase Young and rotation players. 9 Edges currently in the Top 50 draft prospects, though.
DT, honestly, BJ Hill might be the best of the bunch in FA. There are 7 in the Top 50, but several are NT's that don't offer much pass rush.
The FA S is good this year, but the TE group doesn't inspire much confidence. You're probably looking at another classic Bengals 1 year prove it and kick the can down the road unless you're going to address it in the draft.
T honestly, they can probably just bring back Ford, who isn't great, but he's only allowed one sack, so he's at least keeping Joe upright. They still need a 4th T to groom, but they can grab one on Day 3 or earlier if the right value is there.
G is a huge problem. Fortunately, it's a very strong FA G class, headed up by Trey Smith and James Daniels at RG and Tevin Jenkins and Evan Brown at LG. All four have an RAS over 9.0, and can help with the serious lack of athleticism on the OL. Daniels had a 92 PFF grade before and Achilles injury in October, so could be had for less than market value may typically be.
