The Bengals have franchised DE Justin Smith keeping him off of the free agent market.  Smith will get paid $8.6 million dollars for one season.  It’s possible that the Bengals try to lock up Smith on a long term contract at some point in the off season.  Smith played in all 16 games last season and he had 81 tackles, 7.5 sacks, defensed 3 passes, forced a fumble and recovered 2 fumbles.
