[quote name='bengaled' timestamp='1334337954' post='1118227']what happened with matt roth? did he already sign with someone else and i missed it?[/quote]

I haven't seen anything, so I think he's out there.

He had a pretty bad concussion last year and Jax didn't want him back, but he reportedly got a clean bill of health and is looking to land somewhere. I've always liked him... Good pass rusher, plays hard all the time. Can play standing up or with his hand on the ground.

rotoworld still lists him as unsigned.

The Bengals worked out free agent WR Limas Sweed on Friday.
The 53rd pick in the 2008 draft, Sweed flamed out quickly with the Steelers after a poor rookie season and torn Achilles'. He was out of football in 2011. If Sweed is back to 100 percent, he's worth one last shot at age 27.[/quote]

[b] Busy in free agency[/b]

Friday marked the one-month mark in free agency. The Bengals didn’t make any moves the first four days, but they have been busy since then, re-signing seven of their 19 unrestricted free agents and signing seven from other teams. Five who were on the roster last season have signed with other teams . Seven who were on the roster last season remain unsigned.

“We’re going to continue to improve the team in a number of ways,” Lewis said. “We’ve hit our offseason goals so far and continue to be just as productive in anything that we’re doing.”

The signings of guards Travelle Wharton and Jacob Bell give the Bengals a pair of players with a combined 199 starts, but Bell is on a one-year deal. Even though the Bengals have never selected a guard in the first round, if Stanford’s David DeCastro is still on the board at 17, he would be difficult to pass up.

Among other targets on offense in the first round, a running back at 17 or 21 would be a bit of a stretch. With the Bengals still looking for someone to line up with A.J. Green, Notre Dame’s Michael Floyd would be a great pick if he falls to 17 or Baylor’s Kendall Wright could be available at 21.

On defense, there will be plenty of competition for spots at cornerback during training camp but Adam Jones and Terence Newman are on one-year deals, and Nate Clements is in the final season of a two-year contract.

With the need to add a young, shutdown corner with one of the two first-round picks, many expect either Alabama’s Dre Kirkpatrick or South Carolina’s Stephon Gilmore to be available.

It also would not be surprising if Alabama linebackers Courtney Upshaw and Dont’a Hightower got a look.
