The Bengals are expected to have about $40 million in cap space heading into FA and the draft (http://overthecap.com/salary-cap/cincinnati-bengals/).
About $10 million is reserved for draft picks and injuries.
With the above potential re-signings, you're looking probably at ~$9-10 mill for Zeitler (based on DeCastro's new contract), about $8-10 mill for DreK (given the prices for FA CBs nowadays), and likely another $8 million or so to Whitworth (he signed $9 million one-year extension last year).
Add all that up and you're looking at only about $5 million or less to work with. Very likely not enough to sign Pryor too unless you didn't re-sign one of the top 3 Bengals FAs.

There is no way I would sign Zeitler for anything near that amount.  Put Fisher at LT, Boling at LG, Bodine (or a previously mentioned draft pick) at C, and Whit at RG, and (Ugh) Ogbuehi at RT. 

Zeitler isn't worth near that kind of dough.  He walks, and becomes a 3rd round compensatory in 2018, hopefully. 

And you mentioned Lafell's contract, which they won't have to pay next season.  

I really think they should pursue Pryor.  Whenever a team takes away AJ, this team has no offense.  Lafell is nice, but can't generate the separation to make this offense stupid explosive.  I think Pryor could.
