I'm optimistic

Man wouldn't it have just been easier to keep Zeitler? We've had to endure poor Guard play since he left.

I get letting Whitworth go because of age and tackles usually declining at his age, but Zeitler was like 26-27. We used a 1st Round pick on him. Playing at a high level. And they lowballed him. I wonder if they offered him a fair extension price if he would have signed it BEFORE DeCastro signed his.

Zeitler wasn't worth anywhere near the $12 million Cleveland gave him.  They realized that.  I wouldn't have paid him that, either.  He was never a top tier guard.  Whitworth was probably, as much as people hate to hear this, the right decision.  Numbers don't lie.  How many vets fall off a cliff at his age?  Almost all.  They had to see what they had and could develop with their first and second round picks (Ogbuehi and Fisher, puke).   He proved them (and everyone) wrong.  Maybe he was that good because he was that anxious to prove himself, or he felt rejuvenate in a new team.  Sad thing is, the offensive line wasn't that  good when he and Zeitler were here before they left.  

All history now.  And if they don't want to pony up on Thuney, I would hope they would use a fairly high draft pick on the interior of the offensive line and that pick could be used on a DT.  SIgning Thuney opens up so many things.
