Pay him a mint -- he's earned if. Or if you must be stingy, franchise him. I know it sort of wouldn't be great for him (though getting $16 million this year would've been nice) but it would be what is best for the team. Meanwhile, you spend draft picks on OL not skill guys. You do that until your OL is good into the future. If you have to reach, so be it. This team is going nowhere if Dalton is injured or rushed so that every throw is inaccurate.
It seems the consensus among fans is to not franchise tag Whitworth or Zeitler...let them walk. Have a bad offensive line and put $16.6 million cap space into the Bengals pockets.
