Well no one said anything about Tua but ok. A lot people like to talk about how Tua had all this elite talent around him but isn't that the same with Burrow? 

Again, this isn't to say Burrow will be bad but if we are being honest, wouldn't you take the LSU offensive players over anyones in the country?

And if you are banking on AJ Green being healthy.... Yikes.

I get where you're coming from. The context was regarding Brady though. Not Burrow. They made it work together. But you're comparing a guy going from college as potentially the number one overall pick to a team that's going to be in a pretty stout division and is well known for being extremely cheap and unwilling to break the bank for quality players. 

If anything. They'll take chances on head cases and hope for the best. Which 9 times out of 10 results in it backfiring on them with a sideshow distraction at some point. In Brady's case? I just feel it's personally too early to give him a shot already at the next level. Make him do it again at LSU with a freshman or transfer first. That's all I am saying. 

1 year isn't enough IMHO. Same can happen for Burrow. He came out of nowhere last year. Haskins did the same exact thing at OSU, obviously, not as good as Burrow, but he wound up on a [BLEEP] team with an overbearing owner and Burrow is headed for roughly the same exact situation in April.
