Similar position to Browns in 2016 who passed on Wentz for a ransom, with thought of getting QB in QB heavy 2018 draft.Funny thing is, they could trade back and would likely be in great position to grab Justin Fields next year. He's not from Ohio, but we definitely love him here. But they will take Burrow basically guaranteed. I just hope they don't waste his talent by surrounding him with shit and expecting him to elevate the team by himself.
All comes down to how they rate Burrow obviously. If they think more highly of him than the Browns did Wentz I think bird in the hand at QB? Gotta take him. If you are confident there's a better one next year? Maybe hold off.
did it work out for Browns? Hard to say with Wentz' injuries as I'm sure that was one of their concerns coming out of college. Think it comes down to Baker. If he's a franchise guy it worked. If not (and Wentz stops getting hurt? They blew it.
