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 am on it with you Brad. Brock Bowers is a stud and should be a stud in the NFL. He is about as sure of a thing as a 1st round pick
could be honestly. He is a natural pass catcher with elite athleticism. Brock would make an immediate impact in our Offense because
he has a knack for getting open and Burrow hits the open guy. Our TE's just have had trouble getting open besides Hudson.
I hope we get a RT and a LG in FA to open up the Draft so we can select either Brock Bowers or my other favorite Rome Odunze the
stud 6'3" WR out of Washington.
