He knows Zeitler is a free agent and, likely, gone – the Bengals won’t pay a guard $9-10 million annually
On this subject. Why won't the Bengals pay Zeitler the money?. He is on $8m + this year and we are plenty under the cap and he is by far the best player we have becoming a FA. Surely its worth giving a 26 year old who is one of the best at his position a long term deal (5 years) at somewhere in the ball park of top 5 guard pay. It's not as if this team ever goes out and spends big on a free agent from another team, so why not pay what you can already afford on a long term deal on a proven player who is in his prime.
