Bengals now only have three quarterbacks on their roster; Could they draft one early?

The Cincinnati Bengals are now down to three quarterbacks after they cut backup Zac Robinson, a third-year player who struggled with elbow issues the past year or so. The team announced it was waiving Robinson under the category of “failed physical.”

Robinson’s release gives the Bengals a cap savings in 2014 of $570,000. He is the second player the Bengals have waived this week. On Monday, practice squad center Scott Wedige was cut. 

The bigger question is could the Bengals look to draft a quarterback?  The team does pick later in the first round, and let’s face it if Teddy Bridgewater is there why wouldn’t the Bengals consider drafting him?  I think the team could pull the trigger if a top tier guy is there when they pick.
