For this team, watch to see what Hunt and Clarke do through preseason and the first couple games.  If they bust, Freeney could probably be signed fairly cheap and it might help their chances if they are 2-0, 3-0, etc.  

The Bengals wouldn't need Freeney for the first half of the season, but for a stretch run in the postseason.

This is true partially. His salary is guaranteed if he is on the roster once the season begins. Bring him in now and the Bengals can decide in preseason if he has enough left in the tank or not plus he gets acclimated quicker to our defense. If he is not worth it, they can cut him before season starts and it costs them very little.
