I don't want the QB of the future to start off on a losing team with bad coaching and a 2 win season behind a crap O-line.

Pass this year, beef up other places, you will still be in position next season to get Lawrence who I truly believe is a better prospect then Burrow.

At that time, you have more guys in place on the O-Line, hopefully Zach has improved as a coach or is gone, I'm looking long term on this deal not just quick fix, because there isn't a quick fix.

We are so screwed up as a team, why bring in a guy like Burrow and let this place ruin him? 

I honestly believe, if we take Burrow, he ends up like Tim Couch, Klingler, David Carr, etc. Great talents who went to a team that was so bad, that it ruined the rookie QB before he got to develop. 

Let some journeymen vet take the snaps next year, and let the young O-line guys you get this year learn to play in the NFL, then... then you get the rookie QB and place him behind a decent line and he has a chance to survive.

And what happens when you miss out on both Burrow AND Lawrence? Then what?

Nope, you take the elite QB when you have the chance. Period.
