Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?

You are right, I'm sorry. His NFL ability is not unknown. He has played one season so it is known that he can put up 17 catches for 168 yards and 0 TDs. I want more than that for our number 3 receiver for our shiny new QB. April 25th is fast approaching. We'll see what happens that night. What does...

As I said to dplank, he certainly could still be a bust...but ascribing him as a non-factor, or "unknown" is, again, most likely not accurate. You are right, I'm sorry. His NFL ability is not unknown. He has played one season so it is known that he can put up 17 catches for 168 yards and ...

And, yet again, thinking Scott has already proven to be a bust is kinda premature, IMHO. :) Please show me once where I have called Scott a bust or said I don't want him on the roster? I like Scott. He needs more time to develop. He shouldnt be handed the #3 spot. None of that is even negative. No ...

Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?

I don't think Scott's a wash, but he needs to do *something* to merit a roster spot. JMO but I think his roster spot is all but assured, they just spent a pick on him last year and he got some P/T late in the year. He should be much better this year and it would be odd to dump a guy that fast after...

Re: Caleb Williams/Keenan Allen avatars

1. If Caleb Williams is a top 5 QB, Tyler Scott can develop into a 500-600 yard guy. I've wanted to talk about this for awhile (because people have been shitting on Tyler for awhile), but good QB play obviously makes the entire offense function better. Players NEED consistency, and Tyler Scott's jo...

I feel like Ainias Smith has been in college forever. Heh. He turns 23 in May. Smith was the least productive receiver of the five, though the most prolific punt returner.

Re: Justin Fields traded to Pittsburgh for conditional pick

The Bears have always put a premium on doing right by their players and Poles is just the newest GM to do so. Sometimes being a good human being is better than doing something better for the team in what is just a game.

I have more confidence in Bates and Coleman then any of the "centers" we've fielded the last several years. Caleb should be able to actually step up into the pocket when Jones gets pushed back into him.
