You have to do everything possible to protect you prime asset Joe Burrow.

If we cant run the ball and Burrow is getting killed on passing downs the second round WR is useless.

Not to mention you have to worry about targets to AJ Green, Tyler Boyd, Auden Tate, John Ross, Joe Mixon, and Gio Bernard. Add in Uzomah or Sample if the Bengals decide to incorporate the TE more as a pass catcher.

It's going to be difficult giving a drafted WR a lot of targets as a rookie. If they do, it means reductions to the others listed, which I'm not sure we want.

Drafting a WR should be more about replacing Green/Ross after this year.
