I get that, and it makes sense in hindsight but I didn't think Zeitler was worth 9-10 million either. He was an above-average RG in the NFL. Between the two, I would have rather had Whitworth. I thought Whit would move inside and finish his career at guard. Then, he could still be our leader and help teach the young guys. I was dead wrong.
Oh well. The could get the best guard (next to Quinten Nelson) for the next four years and I would do everything to try and make that happen.
