Re: Kevin White

Leonard Floyd hasn't been healthy for a full season. Trubisky hasn't started 16 games yet. Miller is a first round talent.

If White is healthy, it will be like we had have 5 first round picks.

Re: Bears sign OT Nate Chandler

A junior college transfer in 2014, Jackson served as a reserve his junior season before earning the starting right tackle job as a senior at Alabama. Who is Jackson? And what do you mean by terrible?

Most likely he showed up overweight after being told to lose weight in the offseason.

Getting rid of more expensive veterans before they're done, replacing them with young, cheap talent.

I think it's pretty simple. Slauson is gone, either this offseason or next. I know it feels weird, but were becoming a team that has young players on the roster waiting to take over for aiging vets. We might even get rid of some players before they've outlived their usefulness. No more scrambling to...

Whatever they pick is going to most likely be an upgrade & I'm all for it. There isn't a position that should be off of our draft boards.
Last time I checked, we sent one player to the Pro Bowl, and that was as an alternate. No position is off the table.

Re: NFL 7 round mock draft - Bears picking offense?

It depends how the draft falls. I don't think we're going to pass up Offensive players we love just because of who we've taken with prior picks. Not staying true to your board is one of the ways you get in trouble in a draft.
