He could have let his agent negotiate an extension with someone else and got a 6th out of it at least.
So a 6th round pick is worth more than treating players well? Shipping one of your guys off to a team who would have rented him for 1 season, meaning no security for Sitton, for basically the equivalent of a priority UDFA. That looks terrible and sends a message to your team that they won't be treated right when their time in GB is over. GB wants to retain guys like Lang, who will probably sign his last deal in GB this season/offseason, and a move like that tells Lang he's going to be screwed by GB when he nears the end of his time in GB. Sitton got a solid deal from GB, his value was at max at a time when camp was done and teams knew whether they needed an upgrade at Guard. GB didn't lose and still did the right thing by a loyal player.
