Hawk started 11 games for the Bengals last season, but the signing of veteran Karlos Dansby gives the team a solid presence alongside middle linebacker Rey Maualuga and the versatile Vincent Rey.

Dawson, but it's fair to wonder if the club is targeting an outside linebacker in the draft with Vontaze Burfict suspended for the first three games of the year.
