While it’s early, there’s never a wrong time to do a mock draft. For the purposes of this mock, I will be assuming that the Bengals re-sign Andrew Whitworth and Dre Kirkpatrick, but lose Kevin Zeitler and Brandon LaFell.
Ideally, you don’t let your 26-year-old guard walk. But, with the way guards are getting paid now, Zeitler might be priced out of our range. He might not be quite as dominant as Kelechi Osemele, but he sure will be looking to get paid like him. And considering Osemele just signed for an average annual salary of $11.
