## Resource

The Bengals made bold defensive moves this offseason, bringing in Dexter Lawrence to pair with Joe Burrow—but their linebacker corps is a mess. Rookie Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr. need massive improvements to even be average starters, and despite early hype, the team’s patience may cost them. With few veteran options available and trading for someone like Jordyn Brooks too expensive, the Bengals are stuck hoping undrafted free agents or big leaps from Carter/Knight save the day. Confidence is high from the rookies, but with minimal margin for error and no clear backup plan, this could be their biggest offseason gamble yet.
