Draft Bowers
#13

He'd occupy safeties in the middle of the field and also keep backers occupied. He'd also make it easier for Burrow because Burrow wouldn't have to look all the way to the other side of the field to find his #2 target.

He'd also be a great safety outlet for Burrow because, yes, our line should be improved with firing Pollack and drafting or signing free agents, but it's doubtful that they'll suddenly be elite and teams are investing in the pass rush more than ever because it's a passing league.

I would be all for drafting a lineman early if this were a strong class for linemen (tackles), but it's not, meaning that we'd be passing on a game-changer for us and drafting a guy that might not make much of a difference.

We'll be picking in the top ten, and we'll want a player that will make an impact, and no lineman in this draft could possibly make anywhere near as big of a difference as Bowers would.

Am I the only one on the Bowers train?

I agree, but there's a couple things that stick out:

1.  I wouldn't be shocked if he's gone well before we pick.
2.  I wouldn't call this year's OT group weak by any means.  In fact I think it's one of the better ones we've seen in a little while.
3.  While #2 may be true (or false), the reality is that we need interior guys.

I think some of the stuff we've seen lately with the TE postiojnn may actually lend them some desire to take one that can really impact the offense.  I don't think it's off the table early like it was in the past.
