IF I had 1 - Burrow
2 - Young
3 - Thomas

That would be how I'd draft. And note: I'd be happy with Thomas. Addressing line is a big thing.

It's just, at some point we need a QB and picking 1 seems like a great time to take one.

I can understand this.  I just disagree with taking Burrow.  I don't buy into him at all.  I know a lot of people do, but I can't be counted as one of them.

I would just hate the pick and basically just watch him fail as this team will do nothing to help him in any way.  Taking Burrow and signing Conklin will only have us signing in a castoff that wasn't wanted by the team that drafted him.  It isn't like they couldn't afford him, they didn't even have to think about that, all they had to do was exercise the 5th year option.  You also mentioned his injury history, you know our luck with often injured players and you want to risk bringing in Conklin?

I am also not a huge fan of Young either.  Though I again understand the desire to bring him here, especially with the Bosa brothers and Hubbard playing so well, but a lot of Young's big games have been against Cincinnati and Miami (Ohio) University, which to me isn't the same as playing against Georgia or Alabama.  So while I understand the desire for us to take him and we do need help on Defense, I don't see it as the need as OLine is.
