Im dense? You’re a moron. Burrow was drafted in 2020 and then Bengals retooled their team in 2021. They did the exact opposite of what you’re suggesting.
Agreed. They did do the opposite of what I’m suggesting. I’m suggesting we don’t have 30 years of terrible teams having 16 top 10 picks and multiple #1 overall picks over that time in the hopes that one day, one day we don’t draft a David Klinger or Akili Smith, but we find a Joe Burrow. And we basically sign a whole new team the next year because we don’t pay our own players or free agents which is why we are so bad in the first place.
That’s what you are suggesting we do. You want us to draft David Klinger so that one day in 2050 we will eventually get Joe Burrow.

Bills before drafting Allen- 9-7
Ravens before Lamar 9-7
Cowboys before Dak- 4-12
Steelers before big ben 6-10
Seahawks before Russel 7-9
Eagles before Hurts 9-7
The only truly stacked team was chiefs before drafting mahomes were 12-4. And Alex Smith was drafted by the niners not chiefs you freaking moron.

If anything it makes sense for us to draft a qb in the upcoming draft or trade up for one. These records completely disprove your point.
You are the moron. If you have a great record, you don’t need a quarterback. Your team should be able to be competitive and then your young QB can take the team up a level. Our team is getting old and a young QB is going to drown with our aging talent like Cam, Mathieu, Davis, Thomas, Kamara, etc. The players that QB will grow with will be Penning, Olave, Ruiz, Miller, and guys like that who are just okay. And you want to trade our future picks to move up to get a qb, so there’s no talent in the pipeline to help over the next few years. That’s how you kill your future.
I’m advocating that we let guys like Carr, Peat, Thomas, Cam, etc., play out there contract and move on. Draft guys like Joe Alt, Jared Verse, Brock Bowers, Trotter, Jr., or guys like that to build around. There are “great QB classes” every year. Next year people will be saying we need to trade up for JJ McCarthy, Shedure Sanders, Carson Beck or whoever had a good year. You can get one next year or the year after.
Taking a QB this year is woefully shortsighted. Especially since you can’t get rid of Carr next year.

First you say its hard to draft a quarterback and now you’re like there are great QB classes every year lol. No they’re not man. You can’t spin it both ways.
So let me get this straight you rather draft guys like Joe Alt, Trotter or Brock Bowers because in your eyes they’re less likely to bust than a rookie qb. You act like any rookie qb we draft will be shitty but if you draft any other guys that are not qbs- they can’t be shitty??? Its like you’ll take a risk with a highly touted TE but you won’t with a QB? Like wtf is your draft philosophy??? Why does any qb we draft end up being Klinger- just cause you said so??
Now you backtracked from all your examples. We’re 8-8. How is that any different than the eagles, bills or ravens being 9-7 and drafting a qb??? Did Hurts, Allen or Lamar drown in aging talent. Your argument is complete shite.
