Granted the line might be worse but come next year when we have to re-sign Burfict and maybe Eifert how bad would it be to not have the money thanks to blowing it on a bad o-line who's best player is in his twilight year?
Just because the line was bad doesn't mean that you improve it by letting your 2 best players go.
Plus...the cap is supposed to rise a lot next year too. We could have franchise tagged Zeitler AND still kept Burfict and Eifert. It wasn't an either/or scenario.
