Moving up to #5 is going to cost next year's #1 and #3, and maybe another pick.
I wouldn't be thrilled with moving up, even for MHJ.

Re: Different trade scenario
I agree that there's WR available later that should be good. I'd just feel better if we were like Green Bay was last year at identifying them. Sadly, I think the #1 component in GB's success is their coach. He's really good. Big difference between our franchise and theirs, they consistently identif...

Re: Different trade scenario
It sounds like Ryan Poles understands how important the lines are and some of us here do not. The arguments for taking a WR for the Bears second pick do not hold water. If he doesn't trade down, I foresee a QB, two linemen and then perhaps a WR. I bet you, Bearfacts, that Poles takes two linemen be...

Re: New Bears numbers, so far
I concur that Allen is a one-off. He won't be worth more than a 5th round comp pick, though, because he's a ten-year veteran and that's where those max out. Players who have ten or more accrued seasons may only yield a maximum of a 5th round compensatory pick, even if their actual value would other...

Interesting prospect stories
One of the reasons I love Dane Brugler's Beast is the history he does on prospects. I really enjoy learning some of where the guys came from on their way to becoming draft prospects. The best story I learned this year was that of Rutgers DB Trevor Yeboah-Kodie , who played RB in high school and then...

Re: Draft Prospects: WR
Legette's story is more complicated than his stats. He's had coaches convert him to RB and a running QB when they needed him, and he's had coaches leave after they recruited him. It took him awhile to find enough stability to allow him to succeed. It's definitely an interesting history. The guy did...

Re: Offensive Line thoughts
If they're gonna draft someone in the first round as a LT — assuming Alt is off the board — I'd bet their target is Fautanu. I admit I like Fautanu's projection better as a guard than as a tackle, but they're going to love his nasty demeanor and his ability to climb to the second level.

Verse is 23, when he turns 24 other rookies will be 22..It matters, but how much might be exaggerated. Also, look at his 2022 tape. If he came out last year he probably would have been a top 5 pick. Drafting him now, could be viewed as him being even more prepared to start and contribute immediatel...

Johnson's a veritable lock for Day 2. (Though there are some football character questions, as I recall.)

Re: Draft Prospects: WR
Pearsall is likely a 2nd rounder, but he'd be on my list for sure.
Keon Coleman, like Pearsall, would be a surprise to be there, but his 40-time might depress his value enough.
Tez Walker, maybe.
Jalen McMillan.
Javon Baker.

Re: Bears working out OT Fuaga
I'd bet a hefty sum that Guyton goes on Day 1.
Barton is a maybe, as his arm length probably pushes him inside, but his athletic testing would suggest he's got loads of promise there.

My biggest issue with Legette is that he had negligible production in his four seasons prior to 2023 (42 catches in 43 games).

Fast, runs good routes from slot or backfield, can catch anything, isn't afraid to lower his shoulder at times, changes direction pretty well.

Nicely done, Yogi.
I don't think Dexter was all that much of a reach either. Higher than I would've taken him, but that's not the same thing.
And I don't think Yogi has to prove anything either way. Fuck that.
