After drafting Chase, the Bengals will have an elite QB in Burrow and an elite WR in Chase on rookie contracts. They have another very good WR in Tee Higgins on a rookie contract, and they signed Boyd and Mixon to extensions last year. The skill position groups (minus TE) are damn good and at a fraction of the cost of most teams.
This will allow the Bengals to be aggressive in attacking the OL while also upgrading the pass rush. They can certainly get some help there over the next few rounds of this year's draft, next year's draft, and they will have the cap space to be aggressive in free agency due to not being bogged down with big skill position contracts.
For the first time in awhile, I feel really good about where this team is headed. Who Dey!
Yeah and if these current coaches don't make the Playoffs this year they should be gone and replaced with someone competent.
The new HC and coaches will have an excellent team to work with. It hasn't been the moves or picks that have been back under
Taylor and company it has been the coaching. Just win baby, this team right now could be really good with a couple more starting
caliber OL to protect Burrow and open up holes in the running game.
Maybe 3rd years the charm? Could very well happen. I don't think we will be the doormat of the AFC North this year.
