Was Kirkpatrick over Zeitler the right choice?

Never.

If you think Zeitler played well enough here to be the highest paid Guard in the history of the NFL you are a crazy man.

A crazy man i tell yah.

If you think he was a bad run blocker, I would ask that you to never speak on OL issues ever again please. Zeitler was a great run blocker sandwiched between a bad center and a bad run blocking RT. And just because you don't understand how contract markets work once they are reset, don't take it out on Zeitler. 

Osemele signed a 5yr 60 million deal in 2016. Decastro and Long also signed huge deals that year. Osemele is the only one of those I'd say is as good as or better than Zeitler. Zeitler is also the youngest of that group. But like Osemele, he reached FA the others didn't so naturally signed for less. Most teams are smart enough to not let top tier guards walk after rookie contracts. 

Numerous times he would actually block multiple people at once. But that's not good right?
