Re: He Gone: Trenton Gill Cut
I love Ryan Poles. Yea, he blew a 6th round pick on Gill but misses in the 6th round happen big whoop. What he didn't do was ignore the obvious problem at a position that isn't considered uber significant, instead he admitted his mistake and cut his losses (literally lol). He did the same with Chas...

I dunno. If you really like a QB, you take them if they're available when you pick. If you're right about that guy, it won't matter who else is in your team, even at the same position.

Re: R4 P122: Tory Taylor, P - Iowa
This whole punter thing is crazy. There have to be enough FA punters to block out the sky. Or get somebody from a soccer league. I do not understand the fascination with people cheering us drafting a punter in the fourth round. I mean OK, a good punter is worth an extra X in field position. I agree...

Re: Some last minute fill ins for the roster
Well the offseason roster limit is 90. Not counting the recent UDFA additions, the Bears have 73 players on the roster (including futures contract guys). So they are going to have to fill out the roster for camp, but I would imagine the final 3rd TE comes via waver wire during camp cuts. They signe...

Re: UDFA
Kromah is definitely a late breakout after being buried at Rutgers — there's often a Schiano element to that there, but he didn't do much his first season at JMU either. I have Kromah down as a strong-side DE and don't see much potential for him to turn into another Demarcus Walker. But I've certai...

Re: What about 2025???
Walker's interesting cos he basically plays a 4i DE-DT hybrid in their scheme, which suggests he has decent agility.
Handful of promising guys next year. TJ Sanders, Walter Nolen, Mason Graham. I'm willing to bet Thor Griffith and Joey Slackman get some pub as transfers too.

The more that comes out about the deal, the better it looks for the Bears.

City (and fans) carry all the real r...

Kiran has a lot of promise, but I'm not handing him anything.
If he earns it, fine and good. But I'm not calling him a future anything until he performs in the NFL. Then we'll see.

I like Cam Ward from that list, and Riley Leonard (thanks @wab) and Jaxon Dart from not on it. Sanders is also quite good, but there's a storm coming along with that dude.
But it doesn't matter, because the Bears have their QB.

UDFA class across the league is unspectacular this year for the same reasons the late rounds were below average. Fair enough.

Randolph getting a shot makes me happy. Bates is at least fast. Not a whole lot of size, but decent athleticism. Kromah was productive, though he's a limited athlete and probably a long shot.
