I think it was an interesting take that if Adam Jones is released, they could use that money on Zeitler....because, right or wrong, the Bengals almost never cut a player under contract. Look at what they paid Leon Hall last year. I would guess Zeitler walks and they draft a guard early....perhaps with the pick from an AJM trade.
FWIW, I think they will absolutely bring in a veteran CB as well. That is probably money better spent than on Zeitler. Before anyone screams about protecting Dalton, I think what Zeitler really lacks is the functional strength to be an elite RG and help in the running game. That player could be drafted, and this draft class is pretty deep with talent at Guard.
that OG we drafted last year is suppose to be crazy strong,. Westerman or something like that...
Id rather spend Zs money on bringing in a functional center.
