LSU has always been a decent team, their QBs haven't been that great, but for some reason Burrow is considered "elite" from 1 season on a decent team? I don't buy it.
I don't really hate Burrow, the hype isn't his fault really. Yes I do want to have the Bengals be successful, but we won't be, and neither will Burrow. I know who we are taking and I just think it is a big mistake. If I were in charge, I would take Thomas easily. As far as QB goes... unfortunately Dalton is gone, so we need to address that. I like Eason as a 2nd round pick.
I'm assuming that a lot of these guys aren't old enough to remember Mike Ditka offering the Bengals ALL of the Saints draft picks to move up in the draft.
Mike Brown said no Thank you.
And promptly drafted his savior, a 1 yr wunderkind QB from Oregon. Gonna set the NFL on fire!! Drafted 3rd overall AKILI SMITH didn't live up to expectations:
During the four years he was with the Bengals, he started in only 17 games and threw just five touchdown passes next to 13 interceptions
Not trying to say Joe Burrow will flame out, and I hope like hell he doesn't. Just proves very high draft picks can fail...
The only thing I hate worse than Pittsburgh football...
