If the front office thought Kirkland was the answer, they would have inked him to something longer than a one year deal.
I want to see two vet guards signed in free agency, preferable Zeitler on a two year deal (11M total), and Bechton on a four year deal (16-20M total?)
Let it be a dog fight for the first guard off the bench, because Burrow deserves proven players protecting him. Plus the vet leadership would be invaluable if something happened and Lee was forced to start at center.
I agree Rugby. Just throwing others off our intentions is all the coaches are doing. Cutting Cappa means we are going to get a FA Guard
and there are about 6 or 7 of them that should be available that fit our needs. Like you say, Zeit, Becton and Fries, Daniels, Tevin Jenkins,
Risner, Scherff etc.
We will get at least 1. No way Kirkland is starting unless he wins the job. He has enough trouble staying healthy. I like him when he does
play though, especially at Washington and last year in the Preseason where he shown growth before getting hurt.
