Who is "your guy"?

If they draft a linebacker they really need to sign Jason Peters to a one year contract or work out a deal for someone like Thuney.

I don't want Burrow to have his career wrecked in his first year like David Carr.

I love what they did in free agency on defense but our offensive line is still awful.  I don't buy the argument that stats show that Hart is good and our guards are not good.

Williams is a massive upgrade over what started and plodded along at LT a year ago.
Michael Jordan at the end of the year looked like a different player than the rookie that started...scheme change helped, too.
Hopkins is an upper tier center
We don't know much about XSF, but the Bengals liked what they saw in his limited action and he did it against what they considered to be top competition
Bobby Hart is far from great, but he IS ascending.  Doesn't mean he is good.  It means he has improved year over year.  He is STILL just 25.  Perhaps more than Hart, we should be excited about Johnson who came in and did really well at LT.  He will compete with Hart and could push him out of a job if he isn't getting it done.

I am not trying to say they are the best line in the league, but they are nowhere near what the Texans had that destroyed Carr.  And Burrow is VERY mobile.  It is kind of funny how many offensive lines are probably ranked better than they are (at least in terms of sacks) because they have an elusive QB.

This team is dead in the water if AJ Green goes down again.  They need to draft his potential replacement and a guy like Mims or Claypool in Rd 2 could do that.
