It's not like a missed block from the RT tackle lead to one of the hits that broke Burrow. Oh, wait.....

This is why I have strongly advocated that we pay Trent and then draft Mayfield or Jenkins at 25 or 33 to replace Taylor.

So you are advocating the totally illogical reasoning I just described.

Pay a huge contract for Trent on one side and then bring a late 1st early 2nd rookie to block one of the positions that broke Burrows.

So we will be replacing an early 2nd rd pick veteran with a late first early 2nd rd pick rookie and expecting that rookie to immediately play at a high enough level to consistently protect our new franchise QB against seasoned veteran pros.

Brilliant.
