Those 2 games alone were enough to show anyone that trading away Burrow isn't smart in the least...
Completely agree, all Burrow's games against the top teams were extremely impressive.
The best QB's play best against the best competition and are clutch. Burrow does this, Dalton and Tua do not.
Tua is hurt and when healthy I wouldn't take him over Burrow.
This is the only QB in the Draft in Burrow's solar system and he seems injury prone.

His injury history is troubling and I just can't get over the fact that he has played some of his worst games against the best teams.
I can't get on Herbert either. I watched almost every one of his games the last couple years as he was supposed to be the next big QB (other than Tua) and he consisitnely disappointed me in both big games and some of his lesser games.
I just don't see how you could pass on Burrow if you are trying to win.
Feel the same, great post. The people talking about trading the Burrow pick don't seem to have a plan after that.
Who would be the QB if we traded out of the Burrow pick? A hurt Tua, Herbert, Dalton?
All of which play their worst against the best competition? No thanks.
