I just don't think the Bengals can come out of this draft using the 1st overall pick on a QB and thinking "that'll fix things!" they need more because otherwise you'll still have an OL of...
Jonah Williams who has never played in the NFL
Bust Price
Trey Hopkins if he doesn't leave in FA
John Miller
Bobby Hart
...and having to watch that another year will make me sick. It also seems increasingly clear that AJ Green leaving in FA is a probability, and a WR group of Boyd/Ross/Tate doesn't do it for me. They also don't have a single starting quality LB on the entire roster. None of that is fixed by Burrow.
No one pick is going to automatically fix the Bengals but they need a QB and the QB effects the game more than any other position on the field. Passing on a chance at a franchise star QB would be a huge mistake.
If Joe Burrow is the guy and it's looking like hes the best QB to come out in a few years you take him and build around him.
