Joe Burrow Can Succeed Right Away With the Cincinnati Bengals

For the sake of drama, it would have been fun if the Cincinnati Bengals had pulled a fast one on us and gotten wild with the first overall pick. Start this puppy off with a bang.

Alas, 'twas not to be. Instead, the Bengals did the right thing and took Joe Burrow. How selfish.

Although Burrow-to-the-Bengals was always the assumed outcome and thus not exciting in itself, it's far from a bland move. In fact, it figures to make the Bengals a fun team to watch from the get go.

They're still a flawed team with holes to fill elsewhere on the roster.
