When the Bengals opted to bypass on drafting Stanford guard David DeCastro, the most highly-touted guard to come into the NFL Draft since future Hall-of-Famer Steve Hutchinson came out of Michigan, many criticized the team for taking Wisconsin guard Kevin Zeitler instead. It even came out the Bengals had higher on their board than DeCastro, a view shared by few, but it continues...
Bengals coaches impressed with Zeitler
Cincinnati Bengals 1st-round pick Kevin Zeitler has impressed coaches during the preseason and is expected to start at right guard in the season opener.
Bengals offensive line coach Paul Alexander told the Cincinnati Enquirer: “you always hold back a little bit (in terms of expecations), but I think he is pretty good right now… There were plays where he looked like a 10-year vet.”
Kevin Zeitler - rookie most likely to start the regular season opener
Really. If the Cincinnati Bengals wanted to endear themselves to an old grizzled Bengals fan, who has promoted unfathomable fandom behind a Hall of Famer Anthony Munoz and Willie Anderson, they would simply draft an offensive lineman every year. Need a running back? Draft a 300-pound lineman to pound idiot safeties crashing the hole (despite being a defensive lineman, think Domata...
Media members believe Kevin Zeitler was best offensive lineman in draft
The Cincinnati Bengals angered a good number of fans during the first round when they passed on Stanford offensive guard David DeCastro, allowing him to slide to their arch nemeses, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Instead of going after DeCastro, they decided to trade down from pick 21 to pick 27 and select Wisconsin guard Kevin Zeitler. Many questioned the move at the time, but the Bengals...

Bengals sign 1st-round pick Zeitler

Are the Bengals the biggest threat to take over AFC North?
Many people outside of the "Bengals bubble" scoff at us when we believe that the team will be serious contenders again in 2012. We know that the team laid a good foundation through the last two drafts and they received massive praise for their haul again this year. The nay-sayers point to the inability of the Cincinnati to string together back-to-back solid seasons, as...
Welcome to the jungle Kevin Zeitler
With their second pick in the first round the Bengals tried to improve their line on the offensive side of the ball. Guard is a need for the Bengals and in picking Kevin Zeitler, the Bengals probably improves the position on day 1 this season. Being a Buckeye fan, I got to see Zeitler play a couple times over the past few years and in that time the Wisconsin running game has been...
