The Cincinnati Bengals made a low-profile move this offseason by acquiring linebacker Oren Burks, who comes in with a promising upside. Burks, fresh off a Super Bowl victory with the Eagles, signed a cost-effective two-year deal worth $5 million. His standout moments came during the playoffs, where he was notably the highest-graded linebacker at 80.7, showcasing his potential as a valuable asset on the Bengals' roster.

With the Bengals' linebacker core in flux following injuries and trades, Burks presents an intriguing option for a team looking to bolster its defense. The departure of Akeem Davis-Gaither leaves a gap that Burks may fill, though it's unclear if he will be projected for a significant role right away. The Bengals could still look to the draft for additional reinforcement in this area.
