Bates also replaced by a rookie starter taken at #31?
Not going to happen. Most late first/second round players don't start as rookies. Can't see trusting two rookie draft picks to fill crucial roles as starters.
I mean, you can take another DT in the 3rd or 4th or 5th. I didn't get that deep into the draft.
Yup, so the defense potentially gets worse. So be it, I am fine with that. That's the price to pay to guarantee Burrow the OL he deserves. You know what's a harder roster spot to fill than DTs and FSs? Legitimate franchise QBs. The Bengals have one, so protect him. You're going to have to take a hit somewhere because you can't fill your entire roster with quality vets. Somewhere some rookies and/or average players are going to have to be starters, and I would much prefer it to be on the defense than the OL.
