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.

After FA and the commitment to CW at 1, pick 9 is a bit more flexible in my mind. If Turner is there, you have to take him. I think he is a double digit sack guy in the nfl, especially next to Sweat. If he's gone and Odunze is there, you take him. He fits perfectly into a need for CW. If those two a...

It's taken me a while but I am on board. I think this kid has a chance to win this city much in the way Jim McMahon did back in the day. This kid seems confident and ready from the get go to grab this job and make history for our organization. I didn't see that before, just saw an arrogant and selfi...

Boy, I love this guy already! Everything he has said and done so far has screamed success and professionalism. For him to show up at CDubs pro day was just pure class. I think we are really going to like this dude.

Mike Dana is still out there and would be a good, low cost signing. We need DE drpth

My gut reaction when it happened and my reaction now are the same....WHY? This was a stupid football move regardless of how you look at it. I know we are taking CW but why are we in such a hurry to dump an asset that may bring a better load to the team? He was never going to be worth less than we go...

Here's my Hoog Draft after FA period has settled: 1 (1)- Caleb Williams, QB, USC- I am settled in at this pick now and comfortable with it now. I trust Ryan and Flus have done their homework. 1(9)- Dallas Turner, DE, Bama- I looked at a trade down but just can't pass on this kid. If he's there, whic...

So here's the main reason you keep him...Bageant and Rypian. We really want those two if CW goes down? JF is only making what? $6m this year? Thats high back up money. Hold him now unless you get a 2bd somewhere along the way.

As the dust has settled, I see it coming to 2 options. A trade to Philly for Josh Sweat or keeping Fields to pair with CW until a QB1 goes down on another team. Pretty much our options at this point. Don't see any others out there. Why give him away?

So, looking to an extension. Allen is in a group of the likes of Adam Thielen, Mike Evabs, and Devante Adams. All are 30 or older. Thielen is the oldest but probably the vest comp, imo. He is only making around $6m now a days but in his 32-33 ages he made $16m. Evans, who is more dynamic than Allen ...

Screw free agency! Now that the Keenan Allen deal is done, lets do the Fields for Josh Sweat deal and then decide on who we take at #9.
