Team said they could address Bodine gone early in draft, which they did. Team also said after draft they can cut one or two players to get under the salary cap, which they will. I can think or a couple of higher paid Bengals that team is getting kind of frustrated with who would get team under the cap, plus it seems like their replacements added to team last 2 months. So coaches and players are having practices today on Monday after the draft. The additions have been made, but salary cap demands that now subtractions be made of one or two higher paid veterans. One player will have fans on here screaming if cut, but his situations put him in with players team can't count on in games. Anyway, veteran cuts are coming to be followed by fans angry on this site. They must get back under the cap. They did get Buffalo's Left Tackle and Linebacker, but the price tag forces somebody out the door. After last 2 losing seasons, the team said changes were a coming. Team said they would make cuts to get under cap probably soon after the draft, and draft is now over.
Cuts necessary ONLY if Mikey insists on "rolling over" ~$10M to his family bank account. Otherwise, the franchise does not need to make cuts. Although I would approve of certain cuts.
