Well, someone jumps up to #3 and takes Tua
Someone else jumps up to #4 and takes Herbert (not that I want him)
So we are sitting at #5 missing out on the elite guys again.

No thanks. Not at all. We are just not good enough drafters to risk passing our biggest position of need in a year that a rare talent can be ours. We hit on Carson and AJ because they were no brainers. We missed on Ced O, Fisher, Ross, Price, etc because we suck at picking later when a lot of options exist. Dont f this up!
If they dont get Burrow, they should be forced into the XFL. Someone on NFL Network said that and I wholeheartedly agree with it.

He doesn't want a bunch of picks, he doesn't want to have to strategize and overthink the draft. If he trades down or passes on Burrow in any sense not only will the picks he makes in lieu of Burrow have to hit, but Burrow is going to have to be a bust when he lets someone else snag him.
He makes this one no-brainer pick and then he can draft Drew Sample in every other round and the draft will be declared a success.
Agreed, no way should we trade out of getting Burrow. There is Burrow and then a hurt Tua, no one else is even close.
You get your future franchise QB, and build a good team around him. Starts with FA in adding at least one Lineman and maybe
some weapons. We have plenty of dough to spend especially if we trade Dalton and move on from AJ. If we traded out of the
Burrow pick who is to say any of the picks we get will even start as rookies, let alone be difference makers in a crapshoot Draft.
