I love it.

People saying that we shouldn't use a first round pick on a slot corner absolutely baffles me (who says baffles?) because look at the best slot receivers in the NFL: Kupp, Jefferson, Kirk, Lamb, etc., and you think we shouldn't take a first round guy to guard them, especially when he can play safety?

Aside from that, he's 6'1 with long strides, and he can absolutely play outside, especially since he runs a 4.49 40, which guess how fast the average NFL corner is? That's right, 4.49, which you might say he should be faster since he's our first round pick, but his other abilities make up for it.

Regardless, he's a playmaker and a great pick.

Giving Burrow that kind of receiver at tight end would make our offense pretty unstoppable. I have seen a lot of sites saying he could be faster, but he ran a 4.56 40, whereas Michael Mayer ran a 4.7 and Kelce ran a 4.6. I'll take a guy that can be a force over the middle and occupy safeties and backers all day. I'd love to keep Tee but he might demand too much money and I'd rather have Sanders because he'd occupy more defenders, help us move the sticks, be Burrow's outlet, and be a nightmare in the red zone.

Love improving the IOL and the d tackles would be amazing if we can get a rotation on the defensive line with those guys (along with our current tackles and ends) I think our pass rush could be dangerous. I'm a crippled OSU homer, so I love the Williams pick and then I think Sweat could be a hell of a steal since (if I remember correctly) the only reason he would fall that far is because he was out-of-shape and lazy his junior season, which could (hopefully) scare some teams away because he's having a hell of a senior season.

LOVE IT!
