Westerman will be a HUGE downgrade to Zeitler.
I'd go as far as to say that if Zeitler is allowed to walk and they think they'll be able to replace him with Westerman, and Bodine is the starting Center...that there's little chance we'll win a playoff game.
And you know this how???
Plenty of players get drafted in the first round and don't get resigned either because they stink or they become over priced. I love Zeitler and think he's great, but I'm not paying a guard 12 mil a year when we have several other holes on the team.
As far as winning a playoff game, we couldn't win one with him when our line was rated as one of the best. Also we have Lewis as our coach so really it wouldn't matter who we have on the team, he's shown his inability to get this team to perform when needed.
