I think the players are likely graded very closely by the team, and the NEED would definitely make you lean Sewell...but this team has always (over)valued having a name WR...and as much as people won't want to hear this, I'm sure jersey sales are a factor.
You don't think Chase will sell a million more of those fancy new jerseys than a boring lineman? He even has a cool name and will likely rock a single digit number. As much as we love sports, in the end it's a business. They're in it to make $$$. Just peep the pro shop out and you get the picture. They're riding the Burrow hype train HARD. Now they can add his college teammate?
They'll take Chase. Then Hobson will put out a spin article claiming that the Bengals fixed the line by adding Pollack, Reiff, a 4th round pick and getting XSF back. The line will be better this year, but will still have it's issues. Then maybe next year we can hope for a lineman in round 1 after Reiff walks.
Probably very accurate, but depressing. And I don't mind us picking Chase at all. I just want o-line addressed on day 2.
