I just think that this gives the Bengals options on 3rd down packages.
Burfict and Dansby would both be excellent in coverage or blitzing in the Nickel, which is a very common package the Bengals employ.
Rey can work into that package as well, and Maualuga or Hawk are there to fill in on obvious running downs. This gives the Bengals OPTIONS and depth. Dansby doesn't have to come in and play every snap. He can come in and be a factor as needed. Perfect.
LB is now a strength for the Bengals and a DEEP position with play-making, tenacity, and experience. Hopefully this ends the 3rd and medium BS where the other team always wiggles a TE or RB loose for a 1st on a completed pass.
