At this point, I think the Bengals addressed their biggest problems from last year. Glenn, Brown, and Baker filled clear needs based on development (or lack thereof) for the young guys behind them. Price addressed C well. The rest of the draft picks were for needed depth, and for the most part I think they were good picks.
They are reliant on their young WRs and young OL on the right side to emerge this year. If not, I expect those positions will be addressed early in next year's draft.
On defense, they addressed LB and DT with quality veterans. They drafted mid-round players for depth purposes. They need some of these young guys at LB and DT to emerge though too since Brown and Baker were both 1-year deals. If they don't and Brown and/or Baker are not brought back, expect the Bengals to also address these positions next offseason.
