The problem for me is that QBs as great as Burrow are so rare they almost break the rules. If the Giants go QB in the next draft and find another Burrow, draft him and we'll work on the line later. We'll figure out what to do with Jones
(1) A lousy OL with a great QB who must run for his life most of the time and cannot count on a decent run-game to at least make the opponent honor his run-fakes, in which case you need an offensive line (THREE TO FIVE MORE DECENT PLAYERS) before you get your QB killed. -or-
(2) A solid OL that opens holes for the run-game but which can't stop the defense from putting eight men on the LOS because the QB is useless to the passing attack, so nobody fears that he might do damage (in which case you need ONE GOOD OR GREAT PLAYER).
