Agreed. Burrow took his team to the Super Bowl coming off an ACL tear and he only got #21 the following year. There was some (fair) skepticism that the 2021 Bengals may have been a flash in the pan.

It wasn't until he nearly did it a second time that they gave him the respect of a top 10 placement.

Not sure why that logic doesn't apply to Hurts.

But it's fine. I think Hurts is a top 10 player in the NFL, I would just put Burrow 1 slot above him haha.

As far as Burrow's placement, I think it's a little low. I think he's a better player than Nick Bosa and Jalen Hurts, so I'd put him at #4 overall. So it's not far off. Just a very slight underranking.
