Burrow is the obvious #1 overall. Especially with the injury to Tua.
Herbert will be drafted by Dairy Queen ?
OK, dumb joke aside, here is another reason Mike Brown should want Joe Burrow. TICKET SALES. Besides no wins, the Bengals have many empty seats, Too Many. Joe Heisman will SELL TICKETS and probably be the #1 selling NFL jersey going into season. Another reason they should give him # 9 that he has worn at LSU. That he is from Ohio and has local fans already won't hurt TICKET SALES either.
This is Pro Football so MONEY is a factor. Not that it isn't a factor in college. The word PRO means MONEY. Mike Brown has one very empty stadium on the banks of the mighty Ohio. Lets face it, Burrow is going to sell more tickets this off season than Herbert would.
So just take Burrow and use next weeks Senior Bowl to look at a Blocker top of 2 and a 4-3 LB top of 3. I say the Blocker first because just as The Mean Machine in The Longest Yard, PROTECT THE SUPERSTAR. Plus that Blocker will help Mixon also. Drafting first in 2 and 3 should bring us a 1st round talent Blocker and a 2nd round talent Linebacker to add to Heisman Burrow. There are very good Blockers and Linebackers at this Senior Bowl to FOCUS on, with Pick #1 pretty much locked in now. Such as Wanogho and Dye. With the unwrapped package of Alabama Blocker Jonah Williams still under the Christmas Tree from last years draft, if they add a Blocker top pick in 2 this year, we might just start having some Blocking for Burrow and Mixon. 2 Bookend Top Pick Tackles from Alabama and Auburn blocking for LSU Heisman QB and Mixon sound right to me. Again that top pick in 2 is pretty much an extra round 1 and good place to get a Blocker. Joe B and Joe M could be exciting if we get some Blocking.
Now one thing Mike Browns bald little head loves is Money, and Joe Burrow is the fastest way to fill all the empty seats.
