Had the Steelers allowed DeCastro to hit free agency...what do you think he would have got? Possibly more than 5 years and $60 million.
The Steelers worked out an extension. The Bengals reportedly low-balled Zeitler. There is likely no way that the Bengals would have given him $9-10 million a year.
And there were other free agent Guards out there worth signing...that the Bengals didn't pursue.
