The Bengals may use that extra 8 million saved cutting Cappa to re-sign Tee and look to the draft for Cappa's replacement
Another option if the Bengals want to upgrade the guard position(s) in free agency is instead of bringing in a free agent to replace Cappa at RG they use that 8 million toward a LG to replace Volson and they bring in someone like Teven Jenkins at LG. Following this approach you do upgrade the offensive line through free agency but you get a proven LG so that allows you to also cut Volson. I am not sure the Bengals can afford to fix both guard positions in free agency because of the cost of two free agent guards. Cutting Cappa doesnt mean you need to bring in a RG. The Bengals could instead bring in a proven LG like Jenkins.
