If we draft a deep threat like Dyami Brown, Amon-Ra St. Brown or Tylan Wallace in the 3rd round, Burrow should be better off than his rookie year when all he had was an ineffective AJ Green in that 3rd spot. Not to mention Higgins will have a year under his belt so he should be improved as well. He may even be "true #1 WR" level. 

Plus having a guy like Sewell will improve your running game which will force the defense to play with more defenders in the box which also opens up your passing game as well as your play action game. 

I agree with the last paragraph, and it often gets overlooked. Rebuilding the OL will Make your passing and running game
Better, which will also make your defense better. I think if Sewell and Reiff do what we think they can then bengals can go 8-8 with a balanced team.

I think chase gives them some highlight reel plays and big games but ultimately they win 5-6 games and are touted as “up and coming”.

I’ve gone back and forth, but I think I’d rather not see him tear an ACL again. I’ll go OL
