If this FA period was as successful as they say, then those would be options. Unfortunately, it wasn't and thus a pick other then Sewell will be panned everywhere, and the lack of protection and focus on the Oline will be the story.
You want the luxury pick? Do what the Charges did for their star QB. For them, the draft is open. For us, there's calls to make the same mistake we've made over the years, which is going for the shiny toy while our QB gets destroyed.
Just cause we pick Sewell doesn't mean he will single handedly make our OL tops either.
You cannot just be stuck on one player as we have seen time and time again in the first round, especially with OL.
Og, Price and then Jonah got hurt his rookie year, the draft is a crap shoot man and there are good OL after the first.
We have to have a WR that can separate and we have to have a good OL to give Burrow time. We can do this with Chase or
Pitts in the first and OL afterwards. Same if we went Sewell in the first and a speedster later...
There just isn't as good of WR's as Chase later IMO.
