Re: Bears / Hard Knocks
The Bears will be selected. I've never watched the show, won't watch even if they are selected.

Re: So, how do we address our last hole on the team?
Braswell, Isaac (both of whom will probably be gone before pick 75), Austen Booker, Jalyx Hunt, Marshall Kneeland, Jonah Ellis, Brandon Dorlus - one of those guys at DE has to still be available. Fiske, Michael Hall at 3T. Sweat, Jackson (Texas A&M), Ruke Orhoroho from Clemson, Wingo and Smith f...

Re: R1 P1: Caleb Williams, QB - USC
I really couldn't care less how guys represent themselves at the draft, it's their choice/brand/whatever. But I was pleased to see both draft picks in great looking suits:

If there is a logjam tie among multiple members, chaos will reign and I will come up with something, perhaps a parking lot knife fight. Good thing I got a new knife for my birthday and have been practicing. This is looking likely. I’m one of 10 with a perfect score so far. Draft hats at 10 paces...

Where are the 'traditional' Chicago Bears and what have you done with them, Ryan Poles?
There will be some DEs and DTs on the board at 75.

Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
Will 60+ years of lots of bad fan years actually be coming to an end? A skilled OC who develops QBs. A decent OL which with the FA centers should be improved. TEs improved. WRs improved and will be better if Poles adds one more. Decent D which will be improved with another DE or 3T. 12 hours to go.

Quality versus quantity. 1999: the Saints trade their entire draft plus the following year's 1st and 3rd to the Dedskins for the draft pick giving them Ricky Williams, who was gone after 3 years. Then the Dedskins traded their 1-12 to the Bears for 1-7, a 3rd, 4th, and 5th, and a 3rd in the followin...

Yeah, I thought about that also. Sanders, to some degree, offsets that.

Stats don't lie. In 2023, despite USC's less than stellar OL, Williams had a 73% completion rate from the pocket. For those who say he can't play in a structure, he left the pocket on only 3% of his dropbacks.
