Just throwing this out there, if positional values doesn't matter, is Burrow even the best player wearing 9? Tucker imo is the best kicker ever and wears 9. He's the best at his position and while some here may argue against this, Burrow is the 2nd best at his position. So should Tucker be on there rather than Burrow?.

I can't see all their choices but I'd go Bates over Ekeler at #30. Ekeler can do different things but he's a complementary piece from front to back. Bates is like a defensive coordinator in the backfield. Totally locked in on every play and smart as a whip. It's one of the reasons I'm a bit slow to jump on the bandwagon for this season. Bates and Bell were essential to our success and they leave big shoes to fill. That could take some time.
But that's a different topic. For now, Bates #30. Bell gets honorable mention for #31 behind J.Simmons. They might not be Bengals anymore but I love 'em to death.
