Are the Bengals in No Man's Land?

Most of the names floated out there for who the Bengals would be interested in would also be available a little later on, or at least there would be worthy alternatives. I think of any draft in recent history, this is the one to trade down in unless something breaks weirdly up front. The problem is, I don't know if anyone will be willing to come up.

It'll be interesting to see how things play out when the draft gets here.

At 9 , the Bengals should have a shot at Foster, Reddick, Davis, Ross, Williams, Charlton, possibly one of the safeties, Howard, and possibly Fournette. Those are all good gets. None would be considered reaches. I'm not sold on Barnett. He's undersized, and lacks quick twitch explosion.
