Ja’Marr Chase’s track record vs. top players is good thing for Bengals
That leaves the opinion of Bengals fans somewhat deadlocked between the two. Should the Bengals take the high-upside tackle prospect who bullied college football at the age of 18 or the top wideout in the class with a rare all-around skill set?
Bengals and Ja’Marr Chase smokescreens hitting overdrive before NFL draft
This is especially true with Chase. He has, for example, noted that he’s talked with the Bengals multiple times. And a recent report hinted that Burrow himself has nudged the Bengals toward drafting his former teammate.
