I don't think any WR would be complaining about having Burrow as their QB.
And last time we did this WR/QB combo in rounds 1 and 2 it worked out well for us and them. I think the combo this time has a chance to be even greater. Not a knock on AD/AJ, just the possible potentiinal is better.

AJ had a freak injury last year. He has plenty left in the tank, and will prove it this year, either on the tag or on an incentive laden contract. He's not going anywhere. Now Ross might be shown the door.

Anything to keep the offense on the field longer next season is fine by me.

Interesting that Tee Higgins said his favorite team has been Bengals since they drafted AJ. Beat reporters confirm he has been telling them all along he models his game after, you guessed it, AJ Green.

They are building a video game offense. Gonna be a fun time in PBS for a long time. 1-800directv if you live outside the area.

Awesome that you have a spreadsheet! So do I, but no notes. That AJ comp is a good one.

Side note: Anyone else find it funny that a they are selecting players from Tiger mascot teams? Does Memphis or Missouri have any good players in the Draft?

Wanted to go OL or DL with this pick,
but still like this selection a lot. Have plenty of weapons now.
Welcome aboard Tee !

LOVE IT!
The first thing I thought of when I saw this pick was Chris Carter (AJ) and Randy Moss (Tee).
I realize that that's high praise and a high bar to set, and I also realize that Burrow doesn't have the arm that Cunningham had, but an aging AJ being a solid receiver that can also make plays with Tee opposite of him being a deep threat is an amazing thought!
And Robert Smith was an average back, but Mixon is on another level!
If we get the line together and maybe get a tight end, this offense could be explosive!

Welcome aboard Tee !
I wanted Josh Jones, but he's still available, so maybe he wasn't worthy of the pick and the coaches know more than us for once!
I'm loving the pick because I think he's dangerous opposite AJ because who do you double team?!
Burrow better work with Tom House to get his arm strength up because I want to see A LOT OF DEEP BALLS!

Lacks separation but knows how to play the football. Burrow will know how to get him the ball.
