All is great as long as the plan works. If it doesn't. The "I told you so" card is in the hands of the FO. How will fans react?

Question?

Does that put pressure on Burrow?

I mean, sort of I suppose, but it's not like he plays poorly one way or another. He seems to be steady regardless of the scenario, so not sure it changes things much for him. 

He has two #1 WRs and a host of other weapons. A breakout young RB that can catch and run like the wind. A vet TE that is a nightmare matchup for most LBs, and two monster starting Tackles. He's probably feeling pretty damn fired up right now. 

Realistically we are only one or two successful drafts away from being capable of making another run, imho. I think the young DBs are about to show their worth and growth this season. Add in a bare minimum, one more decent LB, G, and pass rusher. These players can be drafted on team friendly rookie deals.

We're making another run people. Count on it!
