I'm sorry, but Zeitler has not played at the same level as DeCastro. There is absolutely no way in hell I would pay Zeitler anything more than $8 million per year. Why should he get paid All Pro money when he doesn't produce like an All Pro?
I understand we roll over a ton of money, I understand that we save more for draft picks than necessary, I understand that we keep WAY too much for an injury pool. However, I'd rather the front office continue to do stupid things like that than to give Zeitler a huge extension he hasn't earned. I'd be much happier dropping $10 million per year on a short term deal for Whitworth than dropping that kind of money on Zeitler. Whitworth has earned it, Zeitler, not so much.
