Re: R3 P75: Kiran Amegadjie, OT - Yale

I expected him to look better in those highlights when you consider he’s playing against a bunch of civilians.. He doesn’t look nearly as athletic as Braxton, but he looks heavier which could be good or bad. My hope with this oline is that they look better with a better Qb, but we have a lot of que...

Re: R4 P122: Tory Taylor, P - Iowa

There are positions you can get damn good player in the 4th round, starter level or better. IOL, RB, TE and for you @dplank safety or linebacker all can be had in the 4th and can develop into players. I don’t think it was a deep draft and the talent got thin at that point. I think the chances of To...

Re: R4 P122: Tory Taylor, P - Iowa

But here's the thing. That WAS super important because we have only know how to win with defense, running the ball and field position. The Bears shouldn't need to be that team anymore. They should be a team striving to not have to punt or to make it far enough they are going for long field goals or...

He wants to go somewhere where he will actually get more action as he's already stuck behind Higgins/Chase in Cincy. It'd be even worse here. I agree. I wouldn't be surprised at ...

Re: 2024 Draft: Is This Our Greatest Draft Ever?

The payroll for the entire 1983 team was probably less than the $23 mil we're paying Keenan Allen. It was also damn near a half a century ago... I'm happy that we no longer have to look back at a draft that's 41 years old and be like "wow" the Bears really nailed that one. Maybe because I...

He's a 5th rounder, I'd be happy if he becomes a functional DE3. We will probably draft DE2 early next year so Booker does have a few years to develop.

Re: What about 2025???

According to the current 2025 big board at the NFL mock database, there are 12 DTs inside the top 53 players (which is nuts!) and 5 EDGE prospects in the top 25. Poles plans ahead. I think this draft pretty much proved that. He will probably take 2 or 3 DLine next draft when we have all those sweet...

Merging some of the rando draft related threads. Thank you. It was getting sort of confusing.

It's hard for me to accept drafting a punter, especially after drafting one a couple seasons ago.

But I'll trust you all that he's worth it.
