Still think we have one or 2 more picks in us. Poles will do something else, in my opinion.

Yep, Poles did do something else and it was wonderful.

Man, I told ya in the punter thread, Poles would trade back in. Great draft he's putting together.

Love it. Who would have thought we would be clamoring over a punter in the 4th, lol.

Some trade back ideas:

Our pick #122 and next years 6th

KC- picks 133/159

Philly- picks 132/172

Buffalo- picks 128/163

Denver- picks 145/147

Lots of really nice TE's, safeties, and interior lineman but I'm seeing one of these two guys:

Austin Booker, DE, Kansas
Cedric Johnson, DE, Ole Miss

Ced is my boy, so I lean more toward him, if it was ne picking.

Watch for Eric Watts, DE, UConn and Brennan Jackson, DE, WSU, too.

Boy, you could see that coming and I nailed it in the "draft day 2" thread.

Poles was all over him. Thick, quick, long arms, and a very solid individual. He will be a great swing tackle down the road.

Two (2) trade backs in the 3rd round: Pick 75 (3rd) to Texans for pick 86 (3), pick 127 (4), and pick 247 (7) Pick 86 (3) to Baltimore for pick 93 (3), pick 130 (4), pick 218 (6) 93 (3)- Theo Johnson, TE, PSU 122 (4)- Brandon Coleman, OL, TCU 127 (4)- Brennan Jackson, DE, WSU 130 (4)- Luke McCaffery...

Good call on the RAS there HRS! My man Cedric Johnson made the list. He's underrated, imo. Poles would be wise to snatch him up.

In that order for the draft and then add someone like:

Emmanuel Ogbah
Romeo Okwara
Bud Dupree
Carl Lawson
Duwayne Smoot

Also really like Eric Watts, from UConn, quite a bit.

Boy, not liking that Vikings draft. Two very good dudes. The NFC North is going to be very talented.

Franchise changing day! Love it

Big mistake by Poles. Very disappointing. Maybe his biggest gaffe thus far. Sorry man, can't agree. This is an excellent move. More targets for Cdub and he covers if DJ or more likely Allen goes down. Without Odunze, we were screwed. Just let Poles do his magic in the mid rounds moving up and down....

Wow, Poles got his second Grizzly. What a great night! Franchise changing night. Lets friggn go

No trades yet is shocking to me. If Odunze is gone, we need to trade down.

I'll put this here: The Bears are about to become something we have never seen or imagined as Bears fans. Yes, we had the mid 90's and an iconic back but this team, with this QB, and a dominant young defense, we WILL be the next dynasty team. We have never had the privilege to have a dynasty QB in C...

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....

Leggette reminds me of Alshon Jefferies. Wouldn't mind that at all, if he stays healthy.

At this point, I really think the 4 QB's go first and then the 3 WR's next, with teams trading up hard for them. Thats 7 picks right there so it will leave us with Alt, Turner, Bowers, Murphy, and Verse. Who's your Grizzly? I take Alt or Turner all day.

So the whole "Grizzly" talk from Poles, I'm going to trust. I think he stays put at #9 and takes one of his grizzlys. He seens to like his mid round picks and seems pretty damn good at them. I'm guessing he trades back several times from that 3rd round and ends up with a shit ton of 4, 5, ...

Been doing a lot of 3rd round and down guys. Some of the listed prospects may be late 2nd but have a chance to gwt into the third. Here are the top 4 "my guys" and then a list of others I like. 1. Jermaine Burton, Alabama, WR- very good hands, great deep threat, and experienced. Great get ...

Sorry, still can't get on the Swift move. Too many disappointments when he played here for the Lions. Always hurt or had excuses. Didn't seem to give a damn. I hope he's changed and I'll root for him but not overly excited about the move. Not a Swifty in more ways than one, lol

I am really pumped for this season, probably higher on this team then the second year of Nagy, lol. Hope the results are better. I have a good feeling that Dexter and Pickens are going to shine this year, especially if we get a DE opposite of Sweat. Also love having Moore, Allen, Kmet for CW to trus...

Not seeing Brian Thomas Jr. or Adonai Mitchell on the list in the event we trade down is troubling to me. Both guys offer the size, speed, and big play ability that would compliment Allen and Moore. Xavier Worthy should not be on this list, imo. He is a combine darling who doesn't have the size or h...

Do you think DJ Moore has come to peace with the comment he made about JF being better? I'm pretty sure he is going to find out very shortly that he was dead wrong. Having 2 WR's with 1,000 yards plus will be very nice. Love DJ but I think he's going to be very wrong.

This present is wrapped and ready for a draft day delivery. There is no way in hell the Bears aren't taking CW, no matter what offers are made now. I think I'm very ok with it too.

The big question for C Dub is can he break the Eric Kramer Bears record of 3838 yards and 29 TD's in his first year or will he have to destroy it his second year?

Watching more and more film of CW lately and I don't see Mahomes, I see a more football smart Dak Prescott, with a hint of Aaron Rodgers pocket movement and creativity. Mahomes is just on another level with his creativity and escapability. I don't see CW having that in film.
