Pats/Pats/Cheifs/Steelers rarely use a 1st rounder on an offensive skill player.  - Chiefs did take CEH last year, but when you're set, you can take luxury pics. 


During Bradys 12 year most dominant reign, 2005-2018, they spent 2 1st rounders on Offense Skill - Maroney and Michelle 

The packers have NEVER spent a 1st rounder on a skill player for Aaron Rodgers - have to go back to 2002 when they took Javon Walker 

Granted, they took Jordan love last year, but that doesnt help them now. 

I think Burrow can get it done with Boyd and Tee Higgens, and mid-late round picks. If they want to spread the defense out with 5 wideouts like they've been doing, the offensive line needs to be really good though. A more balanced attack would protect Burrow; but again, you need a good offensive line to both run the ball and pass block.

Investing in the oline and defense should be top priority with their early picks.
