Like many I voted 20-26. While Moss is not a fast as Mixon, I don't see him as any worse in short yardage. I also think that Moss will be as good as Mixon between the tackles with Trent Brown being an upgrade to Jonah. The Bengals never needed Mixon to be a home run back.. which is good because despite his athleticism he never was.
Chase is like Gio, although not half the blocker that Gio was. Chase is not going to break out unless he can work in space, which requires Burrow to throw downfield. That would require Irwin/Burton/Jones/Iosivas to be a downfield threat. Maybe Burrow will acquire chemistry with somebody other than Chase. Still, I expect the offense to be good enough to allow the Bengals to run more in the 4th quarter, which will keep them out of the basement running-wise.
Edit: BTW, next year's draft is filled with RBs of all types. Right now rankings are 3 1st rounders, 3 2nd, and 3 3rd.
