Revisiting Joe Burrow draft

Exactly. You think Burrow is an LSU hero, he's from Ohio. Cincinnati was in the perfect situation. No way they were giving up that pick. It was the easiest pick they ever had to make in the history of the franchise. It was a no brainer. Literally no thought necessary. Taking Chase the following the year the smartest pick they ever made. Now that pick took sheer genius to make. 9 out of 10 franchises are passing on an elite WR for a good guard.

I got crucified when I told people here the Bengals were taking Chase all the way regardless of who else was on the board. People really didn't grasp the value of a game breaking talent at Wide Receiver back then.
