Re: UDFA
I've already touched on Randolph, Bates, Kromah, Steward, and the tryout offensive linemen (I don't claim to know anything about Benedet, but Jacob Infante is a fan, so that's a fair endorsement). Austin Reed is strictly a #3 QB, with a mediocre arm and adequate athleticism. He can get you out of a ...

Re: R3 P75: Kiran Amegadjie, OT - Yale
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.

Re: UDFA
Did a little more digging into the other two tryout offensive linemen. Noah Atagi was a four-year starter at LT and three-time team captain at FCS-level Weber State. He doesn't have the feet to stay outside and winds up on the ground a lot, so his only shot is moving inside to G; and considering he ...

Re: UDFA
https://twitter.com/AaronWilson_NFL/status/1784629462815871060?t=TFv-thMqMgX0WCY-MNgfOw&s=19 That seems really high for a UDFA - unless PS salary can be counted towards the guarantee. 17 wks of PS comes out to 204k. So it would essentially be guaranteeing "you'll at least be on the PS all ...

Re: What about 2025???
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.

Re: UDFA
UDFA class across the league is unspectacular this year for the same reasons the late rounds were below average. Fair enough. There are always some who come in and contribute, but there might be fewer this year than most. I suspect the majority of UDFAs who stick will be super seniors who are physi...

Re: UDFA
Benedet might be the Jenkins replacement. A UDFA replacement for one of the best guys in the league? https://i.makeagif.com/media/3-18-2017/K56Php.gif Yeah, I'm not willing to go there. Jenkins has proven he can play in the NFL, and Benedet is a UDFA flier. Sometimes those work out. Usually they do...

Hmm, Gillum is a fringe guy. Sixth year senior and former walk-on at Kansas State who eventually earned a scholarship (27 starts in 45 games, all at C) and was voted a team captain in 2023.

Re: UDFA wish list
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. Steward played well at the Hula Bowl, but didn't get a call-up like some others did. He's a ballhawk in the ...

Re: R4 P122: Tory Taylor, P - Iowa
Some quoted excerpts from Bob McGinn's annual anony-scout quotes. “He’s very mature and certainly has the size,” one coach said. “Not the most physically imposing guy. He’s not built the best. He wasn’t great on college tape. I’m not 100% sold on him. He’s not a really good athlete. He showed he can...

Re: My Guy for the 2024 Draft
Issue on Theo Johnson is probably the perception of his football character. Seem to be some questions as to how important the game is to him.
At a certain point, of course, the athleticism wins out over those questions.

Speaking of Edge Am I the only one who absolutely doesn't get the gulf between Gabriel and Grayson Murphy evaluations?? If Grayson's going in undrafted or late, I'll take an order of that. It's curious, to be sure. Grayson's 2022 was a good deal better than Gabriel's, while the reverse was true in ...

Re: Day 2
Nice choice. I like Rosengarten.
I am not an advocate of trading up in general. That said (assuming the Bears like him, which obviously I don't know), I'd be okay with a move up to land Marshawn Kneeland.
