Letting Fat Andre walk wasn't the mistake...he was out again for being fat, I mean injured. Not starting Fisher at RT over Ced was the mistake, and at the very least, make the switch earlier when it was obvious to everyone else he was not ready.
I like Zeitler, but he simply isn't worth the kind of money he is likely to be looking for. A team like Cleveland, with a ton of cap space after their purge, might over pay him but that doesn't mean the Bengals should. Maybe sign a veteran FA Guard if they aren't sure about Westerman, and there is always the draft.
