I agree with that 100% but their thoughts were that Willliams was only in his 2nd full year and they weren't going to move him to the right side then.
The problem is, they did (and may still) be thinking backwards; that Burrow can cover up the Oline deficiencies, with the the number of recievers they have.
They bank to much on potential and not enough on what's known and the "right way" to do it.
I was on board with taking Chase but i still don't like thier model. It's proven to bite them in the ass the last 3 seasons. One day they need to realize they have to build a wall and go from there. Also, they're way too loyal to some of thier guys *looking at Mixon and Tee*.
