I'm sure many are hoping for a trade down, but as the Bears currently pick fourth on Day 2. So who are your top 4 guys?

Trade down.
Trade down.
Trade down.
Trade down.

Oh, and my remaining Tier 3 guys are:

Kevin King
Fabian Moreau
Larry Ogunjobi
Forrest Lamp
Jordan Willis
Taylor Moton

Trade down. The Bears need to heal from the raping the Niners laid on them.

I'm not sure how to deal with Depressed WAB. Like it's getting kind of meatbally at this point.

All the rumor mills are going nuts about 4 or 5 teams wanting to move up and select QB's. So it is possible we could end up with more than what we gave away to move up one spot.

My thought is we are taking the top CB in this draft left.
I would take the freak Obi Melifonwu. Could you imagine the PR this pick could get you.

Obi One controling the Force known as the Bears :) (Obviously I don't work in marketing)

I know I know. I'm less upset about what they gave up to get Trubisky after doing the math. And I like Trubisky. I'm just sour on Pace's approach to building this team. His schizophrenic "lets see what sticks" approach is frustrating.

If the Bears can trade down or come out of R2 with a DT or OT I'll be happy as a clam.

I like the way you think, but is Dawkins a LT? I've had my doubts, and Cam Robinson has looked like eight different players when I've tried to assess him, so I've been thinking more about the Davenport/Garcia/Ware tier...for which it'd be really nice to have a third-rounder.

You did a decent job this time. You hated White, I hated Floyd, we are both cautiously optimistic with Trubisky.

trading down would be the best option IMO but I'm thinking that is not what Pace will do ... hell, he may trade up to pick first on day 2

top 4 guys for day 2 :

* Budda Baker, Safety
* Taylor Moton, OT
* Forrest Lamp, OG/OT
* Jake Butt, TE
