Of the 12 QBs heading into the playoffs, 2 can be questioned if they're franchise quality. If you have a chance at a franchise QB, and Burrow sure is looking the part, you dont pass that up. If our coaching staff thinks that Burrow will be a franchise QB, it would have to be nothing short of an absurd Ricky Williams-esque offer to get us to trade.
This is my thinking, too. Most teams first round picks work out about 50%. Extra picks give more chances of hitting on a good player. Also, in most years I would draft Chase Young if I didn’t trade back because a pass rushing RE is the most important position in a 4-3, IMO. But, a franchise QB is the most important position on the team. I believe Burrow is a franchise QB. Although I recognize there is at least a 50% chance I’m wrong.
