I haven’t been shy the last several weeks about suggesting that the Cincinnati Bengals would be doing Joe Burrow a disservice by selecting former LSU football wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
It’s not that I don’t like Chase — it’s actually quite the opposite, I think he’s the best wide receiver in the draft.
It’s just that I think the Bengals should use that pick on an offensive lineman to help protect Burrow for years to come.
