O linemen still on the board.

Reiff will be 33 in December. Maybe he plays well and we bring him back, but I still don't consider him the future at his position. I also understand there is next year, but waiting until next year is getting a little old.

Even if we say our starting OL is average, our back ups are currently far below average. Price, Jordan, Adenji, Sutherland, Johnson, Prince. I think Adenji could pan out, but we need some additional OL that has talent. Make no mistake, we took Chase and I hope he becomes the greatest WR in team history. I just still believe OL in a much greater need than anywhere else. Even being generous with what we believe to be to the starters talent, we are seriously lacking in depth. Again, that's not tearing down the pick of Chase at all. It's simply saying that we need to add some serious help tonight with both picks. Lets try to make things better for Burrow this year too instead of saying there's another draft next year.

I don't really count his missed first season for injury he had coming out of college. So he hurt his knee last season, lot's of linemen hurt their knees. That does not make him injury prone.
