Hello,
I was reading a NY Times article that brought up some very good points which made me sick to my stomach about the NFL season.
And, that there's a very good chance that the NFL season will end up getting cancelled as well???!!!
I know, we all shudder at the possibility of that happening.
They brought up things such as OL vs DL contact/practicing against each other and both contracting the virus. Then, needing to be quarantined. Or, spreading it to a lot of players/coaches/staff/ entire team, etc...
Then they talked about states like California and NY having to stay shelter in place for longer than other states, or spiking up again during September or winter months and having to shut down.
It just seems scary to think that they could be right about this and that there is no NFL season either.
But, if that's the case, then me and my brother were debating back and forth about next year's draft possibilities.
If the NFL owners do come to agreement that the same Draft order would happen, and if Lawrence declares for the Draft w/o playing another down in College Football, what do the Bengals do with that "Extra" #1 Pick????? LoL
My Bro said to Draft Lawrence, have Burrow and him fight it out for the starter role, and then trade the loser of the battle for pick/s from best offer.
I just thought to trade the #1 pick right off the bat for a boat load of picks from any Several Teams begging to get into that #1 Spot and then Bengals just take the Tackle, Sewell from Oregon, or Ja Mar Chase to team up with his old partner in crime Burrow.
There would be several teams in that running. And, I'd imagine the Bengals would trade that pick away to an NFC team as to not compete against Lawrence until they'd hopefully meet in a SB some day. Lol
But, several teams such as NE, JAX, Tenn, Chicago, Indy, Detroit, Washington, etc....would all possibly be interested and competing for the best offer to Bengals.
It would be the most exciting thing to be in the Bengals shoes at that point though right?
I didn't at first agree with my Bro about the prospects of just taking Lawrence as well.
But, boy, it sure would be an unbelievable thing to have Burrow AND Lawrence on the same team; Although, it wouldn't be fair to the one who'd lose the starting job.
Still, say if Burrow were to win the job, they could also add RPO packages in with Lawrence at times throughout the game as well.
It sure would be an interesting dynamic/problem to have if you're the Bengals coaching staff at that point.
What's your hypothetical thoughts about taking Lawrence as well or not?
