Jesus christ that is an absolute haul. Negates Derrick Brown, Jaycee, Ickey, and another first round talent. I mean I guess but I wouldn't particularly like it

As well as YGM (yawn) and Chinn. Even with all that loss, Burrow is a stud so I’d probably have to be reluctantly ok with it. I’d have flipped my poo at the time though

No.  As good as Burrow is, still, no.

If you had an extremely talented GM, you might be able to do that trade and still be competitive before Burrow's rookie deal ran out.  However, if you had an extremely talented GM he would negotiate a better deal from the start.

Nope.

Putting any QB ever in their prime on this team would be horrible.

This is exactly like what we talked about with Deshaun Watson.

Selling the farm and not being able to build around him would only lead to poor performance, injury, Derek Carr syndrome, etc.

Meanwhile, your future is mortgaged for years and you cannot afford anything.

If you knew he would turn out the same way he is now it honestly would be tempting. There is just no way to know that. I’m not a fan of 3 first round picks for a “sure thing” rookie QB, much less 4 and some. The biggest concern would be him possibly saving Rhule’s job as already mentioned.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
