Whitworth is the oldest starting Tackle in the NFL. He's going to decline soon and it may be sharp.

Kirkpatrick is above average but not great.

Zeitler is the best Guard...but he's not great either.

IF the Bengals would commit that money to upgrading other roster positions...it wouldn't be so bad. But they likely won't.

.....and that's what is so frustrating in all of this.  Losing these guys would be no big deal if we knew they would work FA to their advantage and hit a homerun draft....but we've all seen this dog and pony show 5 too many times.
