Yup, Lane Johnson for the Eagles as well.

And you could say Wentz.... but Foles really won that game.

What I really saw in the trends of top 5 picks. QB is of course the biggest. Then DE/OLB (guys who are rushing the passer), then next, OT guys to slow down the edge rushers.

It's just interesting to see how little success comes from certain positions high in the draft. Again, I don't doubt Chase will be successful, I just don't think he is the right fit here.

We actually had this same discussion last season. I was against Burrow, not because he wasn't talented, but because the line sucked and I told you, if we take him, we will end up breaking him. 

Well... we did. They have to just cut their losses, dump lots of attention to the OL (I like Jonah, but he can't stay healthy yet) and let this be a bad season with growing pains and let the line gel.

Then, fire Taylor, and go after targets next year when Burrow knows he has a solid wall in front of him and he is fully healed.

I know they say he'll be back week 1, but really, do we want him out there week 1? I'd start Allen and make sure Burrow is 100%.
