Would you trade Burrow for Watson

I am very interested in seeing how Fields plays in the NFL. He could be a Watson like player. I am a bit weary of OSU's offense since they have produced no meaningful NFL talent at QB in the last...forever (seriously, has there ever been an OSU QB that has had success in the NFL?), but Fields does look like the real deal. 

I am really hoping he is drafted in the top 4. That will give us a really good chance of getting Sewell at 5 if Lawrence, Wilson, Fields and one other player goes before us, which may be Devonta Smith after that national championship game.

Crossing my fingers :)
