No one seems capable of understanding but they sucked last year WITH THOSE GUYS. The problem lies in the middle of the line and with the coaching scheme. Whit will not be the first player to beat Father Time, but I hated to see him go regardless.
The play at LT is an issue, but it isn't THE issue. Run blocking and scheme. That's it.
Yeah...the we were bad WITH those guys last year excuse doesn't fly because they were our 2 best lineman. You let them go and you get worse...and 2 quality players more away.
Zeitler may not be great for the Browns...but in our system he was good.
The Steelers paid DeCastro $10 million. They still managed to:
Franchise Bell
Extend Brown
Extend Tuitt
Extennd Villaneuva
Sign Haden
WITH LESS CAP SPACE THAN US.
Paying a Guard $10 million this year is the equivalent of paying them about $7.5 million a year in 2012 as the cap rises by about $10 million a year.
