Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd both look quite capable in the roles they're meant to play. Clearly though they are not going to be consistently effective in generating downfield separation.

This is why i struggle in the thought of drafting Sewell or Chase.  

This team struggles on the OL and the QB can't throw down the field w/o time in the pocket.  

Could it be that Burrow couldnt hit on any deep passes last year because he didnt have time in the pocket to let the play downfield develop?  

Then i look at our WR.  We IMO don't have a true #1 receiver.  We have 2 very good receivers.  Tate on any other team would be a 5th or 6th receiver sorry.  

This team needs a player with speed.  Basically a guy like John Ross but who can run routes and catch the ball...oh yea and stay healthy. 

There's no players on this team that can do that right now.
