Bobbie wasn't too bad in 07 and 08, but he looked awful because he was playing in between Eric Ghiaciuc and Stacy Andrews.
I believe that's the issue that's happened to Zeitler. Yes, he's had negative plays, but there are times it seems that he's trying to bail out Bodine's awfulness and makes himself look bad in the process.
He's also asked to pull and when he does, Bodine has to be able to make the block on the NT or backside DT without getting into the pulling guard's lane. He's weak at that and it causes a lot of "negative" plays for the guard.
