If he looks the part, then I let him rip and don't look back. Jonah can move inside, or maybe Reiff, but I like Jonah better as a candidate for a position change, maybe even at center, probably at LG.
If they add Reiff and Golladay in a dream scenario, they could very easily take Sewell in 1 and a G in 2. the 2nd rounder is right in the sweet spot of where the team invests in guards like Zeitler and Steinbach. I'd even look at center if Humphrey or Dickerson are available there. A line of Sewell-Jonah-Humphrey/Dickerson-XSF-Reiff would be a major infusion of talent. You're taking a gamble with 2 rookies, but that's where they are.
Honestly, I think if they sign Reiff they dont draft Sewell. It's not an immediate need. They can draft Slater and put him at guard until he takes over at RT. Me personally, I'd sign Reiff, sign Trai Turner at Guard, and sign Galloday that way you dont have to draft for need. You draft the best player available. You can trade back and get additional draft picks. This needs talent and a lot of it.
Draft Pitts or Chase in the first round. Give Burrow some weapons to work with. If you take an offensive weapon with the 1st pick then I'd take a G/T in the 2nd round. Again, if you look at how we've developed drafted OL since 2015 you'd hope we don't ever draft OL again
