Had we picked Sewell in the 1st round and taken a WR in the 2nd, instead of taking a WR in the first and O line in the 2nd. Instead of having Chase and Carman, if we went in the same order we would have Sewell and most likely Rondale Moore (Cardinals-1st WR taking in the 2nd after we would have picked at #5, also the 1st WR taken after Carman) I haven't watched Moore play, obviously he is no Ja'Marr Chase. And whether Sewell would be a better RG than Carman in debatable as well. Of course, there's nothing saying we would have gone WR in the 2nd, I just thought it was interesting to look at what if.
I'm just happy the Bengals are on the better side of one of these "what if" threads. So many times it's been "what if" we'd taken the guy who turned out to be a stud while we were left with ho-hum.
Just look back at 2017 when Mike Brown and Tobin overruled Marvin and took John Ross while Lattimore and Mahommes were on the board.
