The Cincinnati Bengals selected Wisconsin offensive guard Kevin Zeitler with the 27th overall pick of the 2012 NFL Draft.

Fantasy analysis: Cincinnati added guards Travelle Wharton and Jacob Bell this offseason, but the journeymen appear to be nothing more than stopgaps. Zeitler plays with a bit of a nasty streak and is tenacious run blocker. He is also a very competent pass protector.

Cincy will play the best configuration after training camp battles take place. Zeitler may not start right away, but he shouldn't be a drop-off if he does.
