We all talk about what he did on the field. His speech when he won the Heisman caused people to donate thousands to an Ohio food bank. Its incredible what he has done in a short amount of time.
Here is an article showing his selflessness. I dont know how successful he will be in the NFL, but he is the right mix of cockiness, competitiveness and humble. I'm really excited to see what he can do when the bengals draft him

Thanks for sharing! If somehow....some way this kid ends up on the Steelers, I would wanna die. It would be hard to root against him.
I used to be jmccracky. Or Cracky for short.

That ain't happening Jmccracky, Burrow will be a Bengal destroying the steelers for years to come.
Good to hear from you again brother BTW.

Steelers would need to give the Bengals their next 10 1st round draft picks before I'd consider giving them Burrow... that's still a stretch if I'm being honest.
Cincinnati is already married to this dude. If Mike Brown picks anyone else he will lose the city and would need to relocate.

I hope you are right! Burrow is my favorite player in the draft since Billings.
I was still reading the boards every day. But for some reason, I was locked out for months. It's weird because this is the second time it has happened. I think it's because I changed my handle name back to jmccracky. So when I have to change my password, it wont let me. Bengalholic helped me out though, and hopefully this is the last time that happens. Lol

True! I've never been one to say I'd jump ship, but if he decides to "Mike Brown" this pick, I'm gonna lose my sheet! Lol

Burrow will make it much easier as well. He’s definitely going to be in stripes.

The draft may be getting delayed. Can they just go ahead and sign him now?
Everything in this post is my fault.

The very thought of this made me throw up in my mouth...the steelers won't have him, but they will be gearing up for low shots to take out ligaments.

Cameron Hayward is going to follow in the footsteps of the great Kimo. If that happens again we all will know that the NFL doesnt like small market teams.

I don't see why the draft should be affected by Covid19. The NFL may have to forgo their yearly TV extravaganza.
The picks can be made by phone or computer and announced by TV talking heads. In fact, that's the way it used to be done...

The most that will happen is they may not have the massive crowds. They will still have the televised draft, even if it's done over the phone. But I suspect this will be long in the rearview mirror by the time the draft rolls around.

As much as (we all) dislike the Stoolers, Hayward is an absolute stand-up individual and has been since he came into the league (unless anyone has any dirt on him).
Dupree, Hargrave (if he comes back) or McCullers would be the guys to do the deed, I'd think,
