My honest belief of what happens.
Pick 5 - We take Chase to make Burrow happy and get the fans all excited, gotta sell tickets.
Round 2 - There is a run at the end of 1 into start of round 2 on O-line, especially with the Jets and Jags both getting rookie QBs, and we decide the value isn't there and take an edge rusher or... we reach for a 3rd round prospect like we did with Sample.
Round 3 - Maybe now, they actually take the G from Illinois or Tennessee.
Round 4 - LB/TE/WR
Round 5 - See above but remove what was taken.
Round 6 (a) - Developmental QB for 3rd string
Round 6 (b) - Random CB
Round 7 - K
Why take the chance on maybe getting your guy in round 2 for the line when you absolutely know you can get a guy that is better then anyone you have in round one?
Fans will roast the team for doing this. Nothing like ignoring a premier prospect at a position of huge need.
