For the Cincinnati Bengals, there’s 1000% no debate that Joe Burrow is the top guy for what hopes to be many years to come.
But what about the other two guys to build this team around?
While many will say All-Pro Jessie Bates is an easy choice, safeties don’t have the same value in today’s NFL as positions like wide receiver, offensive tackle, or defensive end. An argument could be made for left tackle Jonah Williams to be one of the three given how important he is to keeping Burrow upright, though injury concerns make Williams a hard player to call a cornerstone piece right now.
