Giovanni Bernard suffered a torn ACL, while some players have returned to all of their former selves, there are no guarantees that he will be one of the lucky ones that makes 100% recovery. And, even if he does recover strong, he may not be ready for full action until somewhere in the middle of the season.
Jeremy Hill is also injured, and more times than not, dinged up in some sort of way. Though he's only been 3 years in the NFL, the wear and tear of the pounding from playing at LSU and with the Bengals is adding up fast.
Rex Burkhead finally was able to string together enough good film to go searching for a paycheck. You gotta think that this contract will be Rex's only NFL opportunity to make any serious money. I think that he will definitely be looking to go to the highest bidder, most likely more than what the Bengals will be willing to pay. (anyone remember Andrew Hawkins?)
Free agency? C'mon, this is the Bengals...
After looking at the questions surrounding the RB position, I can see a strong case for drafting a Dalvin Cook with the #9
