Yeah after the Burfict extension something like $12 million. They could have gave Zeitler a $10 million contract before he hit free agency and had a couple million left.

They could have waived Jones and/or MJ to create more.

They could have signed John Sullivan at Center for what $1.5 million a year?

Line would be Smith/Zeitler/Sullivan/Boling/Fisher or Ced.

Or instead of Zeitler...giving Ronald Leary $8.5 million a year.

Plus Kirkpatrick has been pretty bad this year. They could have signed Zeitler instead and sat at exactly the cap space as now.

There were definitely ways to improve the team.
