There are a lot of options here and honestly i think we might see a pretty big overhaul on CNJ cross class skills, since it was mentioned they will rebalance cross class skills around the board and CNJ is already very lackluster for PLD.
I agree with you and CNJ is looking really lackluster for BRD as well.

If they were to change our other cross class to CNJ, I would prefer that they change the skills to function differently in a bard's hands than in a WHM/CNJ. Cure would change to either a regen song or a increase healing done by 20% song. Stoneskin could change to a song that reduces damage taken by 10-20% or something. Aero can change to being a song that applies a DoT to a mob. Anything like that would find a place on my hotbar. Unfortunately, those changes would take a lot of work on SE's part, and I doubt that we could hope for anything similar to that.

If they do rework cross class abilities, I'd be willing to get rid of BfB and have it exchanged for a ranged version of Leg Sweep. That would tone down our DPS a tad and gives us some utility while keeping Invigorate for AoE heavy fights.

Only time will tell as far as what they actually are going to change. I'm just glad they didn't mention messing with the mobility aspect of BRD as that's what drew me to the class. I really enjoy being able to kite things around.
