Free Agent QB instead?

Everyone is drooling over Burrow, but he doesn't have a huge sample size, and QB is a very hard position to evaluate. They don't have to "rush" Chase Young onto the field... Line him up and turn him loose. This team has a ton of needs, and we need a home run this draft. If we miss on a QB (and it is more likely that Burrow will miss than Young will) it will set this team back even farther. They'll probably draft Burrow because teams get foolish every spring, but I like the way the 49ers now and Seahawks years ago built themselves into contenders.

I'm actually really excited to see Young and Burrow square off in January... Hopefully it happens.

1. There is no sure things when drafting.

2. Taking Burrow would be in absolutely no way “foolish.” I’d actually argue passing on a QB when we don’t have a franchise guy would be the foolish move.
