MD4L Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Just now, Scoundrel said: You think Pickett will be that? Okay so overrating Pickett is the narrative here. Fair enough. Let’s be clear, Burrow has elevated him self to a significantly higher standard this season. Last year left us with some questions on how good he’ll be and in the last 7-8 weeks, it’s all come together. He ended year one with a torn ACL too, so there was a respectable amount of concern as to what he could do this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah so Pickett doesn’t have to set the world on fire year one to be Burrow lite, but I can see him being the facilitator to a team capable of winning playoff games in the right environment within his rookie deal. Thus the Burrow comparisons aren’t completely asinine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that is where if you believe he is other than that you would be underrating him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Pickett for example ended up in Minnesota QB: Pickett RB: Cook/Mattison WR: Jefferson/Thielen TE: Irv Smith OL: Darrisaw/Bradbury/Cleveland With the Vikings defense and former Rams OC Kevin O’Connell could definitely make some significant splashes in the next 4 years. I also said Burrow was top 5 so it’s not like there are only 4 QBs who elevate talent around them. He’s got a swagger and moxy to him, and his running/escapability has become a staple of his total package that again has come into the forefront admist this Bengals run in the 2nd half of the season.

MD4L Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Burrow escaping Chris Jones on that 3rd down in the AFC Conference Championship game to get the first down in the 2nd half is one of the biggest moments of this season IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realize I'd missed that trade when updating the picks. I'll get it next time. Also realized I forgot to change New Orleans to Flint, my bad on that as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Good mock @rackcs would be thrilled if I could get an edge at 2 and still get Hamilton at 7 but don’t see that happening. It’s a deep edge class and as much as I love Hutch Going Hamilton at 2, Sauce at 7, Karlaftis at 9 would really excite me. Don’t see Dean getting close to 31 but I’d be happy to snag Jahan Dotson or David Bell there to group with Chase, Smith, and DPJ at receiver.

MWil23 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Kenny Pickett has more of a chance becoming Mitch Trubisky or Colt McCoy than Burrow or Burrow light. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
