I like the idea of penciling him in at RT and moving inside depending on how the draft goes. Can I say I want both signed?
This could probably be said about any of the OL guys in their 30s, but I see Zeitler as a one year placeholder while a draft pick or current backup develops. Like you said, it may take a 3 year contract but I think you can count on one year and feel lucky if they can give 2 or 3 without a large drop off.
Matt Feiler is the one guy that makes the most sense to me to target first for the reasons stated above. He has played well at LG and RT. He makes the most sense in my opinion because he opens up the draft for the Bengals in round 1.
