Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?
With the draft almost here, people are coming up with all sorts of ideas to get clicks Bill Banrwell ESPN: Bears get 1/14, 2/45 and Edge Payton Turner (forgotten about him '21 first round pick who has missed all but 15 games with injuries) Saints get 1/9 and 3/75. Don't know enough about Turner to g...

Re: Jer’zhan Newton
Foot problems with large men are as scary as knee problems for WR/RBs. They are typically chronic I’m more nervous about Latu then Newton from an injury standpoint I think I am as well. But part of that is I think you have to get Latu about 12 and you can get Newton early 20s. So maybe willing to r...

Re: MHJ tanking his showing so the Bears can land him
Let's add to this - MHJ has had 2 top 30 visits - AZ and the Bears. Someone posted that online and said it appears he either wants to play with Murray or CW. CW's dad then retweeted that. I can't imagine how crazy the discord will be if QBs go 1-3 and then the Commish comes on and Says AZ has trade ...

His foot could like Tommie Harris’ knee - causes him to slide a bit / is great for a time / then nothing.

Re: New Bears numbers, so far
Yeah, I think Allen is a one-year rental. Trade a 4th, get a solid year out of him and let him walk for a higher comp pick. 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 t...

Re: Different trade scenario
why this absurd fascination with the WR position? the Bears have DJ Moore & Keenan Allen and whoever is the QB will only have so many throws a game to share the ball with the WR's, TE's and RB's if they want to get WR help in later rounds, fine ... but to use the #9 pick on a WR would be absolu...

I think we're going to find someone of impact at 9. If we can get Odunze or Nabors---boom you take him. If they're gone, you get the best Edge Rusher available. What do you guys think of this? What about trading up from 75 after having done the above? Maybe you get your Edge guy and then move up co...

Re: New Bears numbers, so far
Given that they haven't given 13 to Allen yet, I think they will be holding it for CW. Plus the more I think about it, I think the plan is to let Allen walk at year's end. They traded a 4th round pick for him to give CW a stud duo at WR to help him get ready for the NFL. He's far more valuable to C...

That we traded a 5th round pick for Bates doesn't necessarily mean anymore than he was brought in to be the first off the bench sub for all three OL positions or competes to start somewhere something no 5th round rookie would be capable of doing as well.

Re: My Guy for the 2024 Draft
I couldn't sleep last night, so I came out and did a Mock Draft with PFN. In it, I was offered a trade by the Rams: the #9 pick for the Rams 19, 52, 155, and next year's second. I took it and came away with 19--WR-Brian Thomas; 52--DE Bralen Trice; 75--DT Braden Fiske; 122--OC Beaux Limmer; and 155...
