That being said, I'd rather have Feeney if we go that route.  I actually would take Feeney in the 2nd and put him at Center.

While I'm with you in spirit that we should keep Zeitler, I just don't think it's going to happen.  In Bengals math, Zeitler doesn't play a position worth paying veteran market value to.  See, in their minds, interior OL, LB, and S are not "premium" positions, (even though teams that are strong up the middle on both sides of the ball tend to fare well..) and those positions are not where they want to spend their money. 

Damn them, and their wacky philosophy!  I still believe that a team that can run between the Tackles, and stone the run and passes to the middle of the field is always a contender.
