Too old, too expensive for us

9. G KEVIN ZEITLER, DETROIT LIONS

How does one of the NFL’s best offensive lines remain elite? Adding a player like Zeitler, who has slotted in seamlessly at right guard. In 2024, Zeitler has recorded career highs in PFF overall grade (90.0) and PFF run-blocking grade (88.7) while still posting a 97.8 pass-blocking efficiency. Zeitler sits as the third-best guard in PFF overall grade this year and is playing at a level transcendent to his one-year, $6 million contract.


Hindsight is always 20-20, but how many of this year's close losses go the other way if the Bengals had invested $6 million in  PFF's third best guard?

For that matter, would Super Bowl 56 have turned out differently if it was Zeitler and not D'Ante Smith blocking Aaron Donald on that last play?

Smith did not play in the SB.
