We'll be chasing the elusive OT for another decade. In the meantime, replace band-aid as needed and move on. Hardest position outside of QB to fill out we had a fleeting chance. It's a love hate thing. I'd love to have locked up OT for the future and secure our QB solid blue chip protection. I'd also hate to let this moment define what direction we're heading towards. Especially if the unspoken happens to our QB. I will not be saying I told you so but you can certainly bet I'll be thinking it. But hey, we just got a killer WR and that's not a bad thing. Go Bengal's. Whodey !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BengalFanInTO 720 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 You might say some folks already had their jerseys ordered, right Elizabeth? Not the right pick in my opinion but a hell of a football player. I look forward to Ja'Marr Chase proving me wrong for many years to come. Welcome to the Bengals, kid.

VonBlade 693 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I get that Chase might be special and his chemistry with Joe is worth extra points. I get that we have other draft picks. BUT We already have two excellent WRs and, in Tate, a good slot guy. We've got a very good RB. Skill positions we're good if you work on the 3WR-1RB set basis. But we have 1, maybe 1/2 of the FIVE OL guys we need, and Burrow has already been toasted. One day we'll learn that football is won in the trenches, but it's not this day. We need to draft OL 3 of the next 4 picks. 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tibor75 109 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Hope I'm wrong - but simply an idiotic pick. OL is a weakness Your franchise QB got hurt Your WRs aren't bad and you just spent a 2nd round pick the year before on the position There is an OL available who some consider a franchise player. There is a reason this stupid family has won a grand total of 5 playoff games. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A Rock 118 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I wanted Sewell badly. That said, I'm taking solace in the fact that Burrow really wanted Chase. It's baffling to me. Joe was exceptional last year considering he was continually running for his life and getting drilled, yet his enthusiasm seems to have never wavered. Even after the inevitable and his knee got blown up. He's been nothing but positive and he seems okay with it. Either his mindset is contagious and holds with this team, or he probably gets blown up again. Seems like the wrong move to me, but it's his health and career, we DID get an awesome receiver, and like last year I'll be interested to see what happens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
