Bengals 53-man roster prediction has several stunners, dubious depth at key positions

We'll have a better grasp of how the Cincinnati Bengals plan to structure their team here soon once news starts surfacing of en masse cuts to the roster until they reach that magic number 53.

There ought to be several follow-up transactions that will alter the makeup of the roster's back end, which could explain why certain needy positions are temporarily left so exposed in the predictions of some. My final prediction already went up after the preseason finale, linked here for compare-contrast purposes.

Might be just me, but given some of the Bengals' issues, I have my doubts that players who get scooped up after being cut from elsewhere will come in and make a meaningful contribution, especially early on.
