After getting a couple extensions done before the madness ensued, the Bengals took a rather surprising approach to start free agency. A few holes were filled, but many more remain and time pressing on does not make matters easier.

With the first part of free agency in the books, it's a good time to put together a seven-round mock for the Bengals. For this mock, we are using Pro Football Focus' mock draft simulator. Starks could be a legitimate top-10 talent in this draft class and safety is still a key need as the Bengals look to revamp their defense with new defensive coordinator Al Golden.
