Thus the arguments like "it being an OL heavy draft" OR "the number of OL on the boar being so many more than WR on the board the rest of the way out" do not register for them whatsoever. Because of that lack of trust in the FO, then they only saw the simple solution "Draft OL high because FO too dumb to get one later".
Frankly with FO's history of NOT building an OL from the last two years AD was here until now, I really can't blame them. But it doesn't excuse the childish tantrums people are throwing on these forums. It's embarrassing.
I truly think Chase is a special talent. However, I dont think he's a talent that's going to make us win this year. I think we could've gotten a WR1 next season to balance out the WR corp. So in 3 years the Bengals will have to decide which WR they want to keep.
Anyway, I have no trust in the front office. None, 0, period. They havent proven to me they can put an OL together.
I think they were incompetent when they came out last year and said "we believe in our talent on the OL and we believe in our coach". They believed enough to fire Turner and sign a 33 yo RT.
I'm going to be patient and see what they do the rest of the draft. I think they only take 1 or 2 OL because I still think there's some people in the FO who believe theirs talent in that OL room.
