If it was up to me, I'd address offense more in FA and defense in draft. I think the Bengals have dumped quite a bit into defense now and it's time for those guys to prove their worth. Draft DL and DBs who can rotate with their high-priced counterparts. I think Bengals can and should get two quality OL upgrades and a cheaper WR3 in FA, but also should take one of Sewell, Chase, Pitts, Slater, or Darrisaw in Rd 1. Get at least two defense in Rds 2-4.
Something about Warford still kind of bothers me. I don't follow why the Saints cut him, as his cap wasn't too bad for his production. They cut him in May and he didn't find a deal right away and opted out in July, but I kind of wonder if teams were shying away from him and that is why he opted out. I know they drafted Ruiz, but they drafted Ruiz with the intent to cut Warford looking back now.
I don't know, I may be overthinking it but I wonder if there is some sort of red flag there the public doesn't know about.
