Since Eifert was a first round pick we can actually keep him for two more years. But that fifth year gets expensive. Right now we are paying Zeitler over $8 million for 2016. If we could work out a long term deal with him we might actually SAVE money against the '16 cap. Most players will take a pay cut for one season in exchange for getting more guaranteed money over the length of a contract.
