Why sprinting to the podium at No. 2 overall with Chase Young on the card might be a bad idea

Since the Cincinnati Bengals clinched the first overall pick by losing to the Miami Dolphins in an overtime thriller in Week 16, it seems like a foregone conclusion that Joe Burrow is a future Bengal, and when the LSU standout beat up on the Oklahoma Sooners and Clemson Tigers like they were Division II opponents, this belief was only reinforced.

We at PFF think Joe Burrow's 2019 campaign was the best season we've seen from a quarterback in the (admittedly short) PFF college era and thus have little reason to doubt the Bengals will go with Burrow as the future leader of their franchise.
