Cincinnati Bengals

The Bengals D/ST has improved its fantasy finish each of the last three seasons, with 2022's 16th-place showing the unit's best outcome since 2015. The step forward last season was powered by not allowing many points (seventh fewest) and forcing a lot of turnovers (seventh most), though there's room for growth in the sack department (fourth fewest). Most of the 2022 Bengals defense remains under contract, but the exceptions are big ones: both parts of standout safety duo Vonn Bell and Jessie Bates departed. Even with those losses, the Bengals' defense looks solid on paper and could be very good if 2022 early-round picks Cam Taylor-Britt and Daxton Hill make a second-year leap. With the likes of D.J. Reader, Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson anchoring the unit, the Bengals' D/ST looks like a fine fantasy option.
