With all of the perceived depth in this year's WR draft class, I would expect the market for FA WRs to be lower than what they might typically expect.
Edit: The Bengals currently have $34.11M in cap hit to their top 5 listed WRs (Green, Boyd, Ross, Erickson, Tate), that is over 17% of the new salary cap of $198M. I wouldn't expect the Bengals to be adding much more to that position group, in terms of salaries. The problem with dumping a John Ross, is that his entire $5.44M cap hit would translate to dead cap in the same amount.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
