Again, the point of this topic was to acquire a high level olineman in 2022 and a high draft pick from trading Boyd and his salary.

We have squandered the supposedly best WR trio in the league, and the #1 culprit has been bad oline play. 

Burrow should not need 3 great WRs if he has solid protection.  Mahomes has zero WRs and an aging TE.

Burrow and Chase with ok WR2 & 3 with a strong oline should be plenty.

Well i put in Higgins with your thinking from your view we were better off trading Boyd and we did not so have to do it with Higgins then.

Though I would argue with your statement we have not tried to upgrade at the line. We have spent a good amount of capital (signed 4 starting FA oline past two years), drafted Williams with 11th pick in 2019,2021 2nd with Carmen and 2022 4th with Volson. Probably every FA regressed playing with us and our draft picks have not worked out.. the most important change we probably need to make is replacing Pollack and putting Duke on the hot seat with drafting Oline.
