My Question to Hobson

But we hired an O-line expert who told us Zeitler was better or as good and traded out of our slot for an extra 3rd round pick it seems. Think we took Sanu with it. 

Am fine with what we did and so was most of the board after seeing it play out. 

The debacle and what separates us from the steelers is that we let our guy walk and they retained theirs. 

Does not make sense to hire a O-line guru for a pick that is only going to be a few year rental.

Bungled another one. 

All true except Decastro turned out to be better than Zeitler in my opinion.

Or the Steelers have a better philosophy on blocking and better o-line coach- that is also a distinct possibility.

Mixon would be killing it if he had an o-line that could hold their blocks like the Steelers do for Bell.
