Odds of draft CB Benjamin Morrison increasing?

Unfortunate reality is Bengals have A LOT of starters entering final year under contract or hitting FA this coming Spring, so CB may still happen even if we think it should be DL.

Hitting FA now:
BJ Hill
Mike Hilton
Vonn Bell (Will Golden want Battle to replace him?)

Entering final year on contract:
Geno Stone
CTB
Dax Hill
Sheldon Rankins
Germaine Pratt
Trey Hendrickson
Sam Hubbard

That's basically every starter except for Logan Wilson.

Golden, Zac, and Tobin have a lot to plan for extending or replacing all these guys.

Thing is, they can pick up the 5th year option on Dax and have Turner to replace CTB.  Newton was thought of to be Hilton's replacement.  And that's if they don't extend anybody. 

S would seem more likely, depending on how Golden sees Battle.  It's also a good FA S crop, so that can be addressed there.
