I think that's what he gets if he is NOT good - I'll never be your beast of burden.

The LB room has two guys I trust in it.

Let’s just say, for arguments sake, BPA for our R1 pick in 2026 is a QB does that mean we should use our R1 pick on him even though we have Caleb?

BPA doesn’t make sense for me for this reason.


Very few things make sense when you take them all the way out to a logical extremity without ...

I tried working a draft without the trades and the board really didn't fall good for us (although I could have gotten Landon Jackson at 72 since that's where he was taken by Buffalo). So here's what I came up with (I at first passed on Ollie Gordon and took Miles Frazier OG from LSU but then ...

I think he was great value pick. Just has to learn to control his play and not get the dumb penalties.

Lets hope he doesn't celebrate a meaningless sack in a game and blow out his knee.

If the Best Player Available on your board, is a guy you do not need (QB when you already have ...

They can't retire any more numbers; they've reached their limit. Ditka's #89 was the last of the 14.

What I expect they will do is incorporate a "ring of honour" into the new stadium where Mongo will get his due recognition along with his fellow Bear Hall of Famers and a good few more.

I've ...

Power may be short, but at least he's slow, has short arms, and a bad bench, too!


Yeah, I don't get it...

If there's one thing that I can't grasp during Poles' tenure, it's the way his front office handles the UDFA market. They ...

Still don't like this pick. My man Rocket Sanders would have been a much better pick IMO.

I think they will make a run an Chubb or Dobbins. Given where we are, I don't think they are going to cost that much. Base deal of $1.5M with some bonuses based on production/playing time that wont' count until next years cap.

I think when it comes to BPA in the first round, QBs create the exception. If you have a proven ...

Given Piles stated the board didn’t fall right to a RB where they wanted makes it seem odd to me they didn’t bring in several UDFA RB to try and find a hidden gem.

@Arkansasbear It sounds a bit like Solomon’s decision.

If you guys can’t agree we’ll cut the dog in half and you can have half each.

Those people need to grow up, get their heads out of their behind, and make a schedule they both agree with.

Or if they make the law make a decision then one ...

Hoping we sign Rocket Sanders Ark/South Carolina

I’m hoping we sign Rocket Sanders RB Ark/South Carolina

It’s over, it’s all over. Everyone was shut out in picks 2, 3, and 4:

Moriarty retains his lead to win with 4 points (Colston Loveland). Lacertine Forest was 2nd with 1 point. Everyone else put up a gooseegg.

Thanks for playing.


Like i said with this draft getting one right might land you the ...

TBH - I think it's RB and WR in R2. Hopefully they come away with Henderson. I don't really want Kaleb Johnson...not sure he loves football enough.

It's entirely possible that this draft is going to be all offense.


I'd love a RB and WR in round 2. Would prefer an OL to one of those but that ...

I've got a radical idea... let's see what the kid can do in the NFL before deriding Poles and Johnson for selecting him.

The truth is no-one knows how any of these rookies are going to pan out. Every year there are highly touted prospects who fail to live up to their billing and others who far ...

Of my nine picks left, three of them are already off the board. :frustrated:


Yeah, more than a few in that boat. Walter Nolen, Josh Conerly, Josh Simmons, and Donovan Jackson being already drafted will have their effects.


Ugh. Just realized I only have one guy left for my second pick ...

FWIW - I absolutely love the kid, I think he's a DUDE. I just hate the value.

He's only what, the 5th TE to go top 10 in the last 25 years? If you are taking a TE in the top 10 he has to be generational IMO.


Let me ask you this my Brother in Halas:

If he's Sam LaPorta, do you like him at ...

I get Loveland over Warren - he's simply more what Johnson wants from a TE. And he is a very good player.

Here's the drawbacks:

If you take a TE at 10, they'd better be an All-Pro superstar. That's a high bar and I'm not confident about it, in part because
He didn't test, so we don't know ...

Ersery is likely the best LT left and not sold on him.

I think I'd like to walk away with Henderson and Jackson and I think I'd be okay with Schwesinger.


I think Ersery is probably a RT in the NFL. If they take him, I assume Wright is going to LT.


That's my take on Ersery I don't think he ...

Of my nine picks left, three of them are already off the board.

I did like the fact that the NFL paid tribute to him at the draft last night.

Could still get it half right. Neither go in the first. I didn't think Sanders was worth a 1st round pick, but I'm a bit surprised no team took him there.

Not cherry picking anything, the consensus board had Warren at 8 and Loveland at 15. Just saying that a lot of them had Loveland actually ranked higher. Do I like taking him at 10? No! But I understand the logic as the Bears needed another TE threat and Loveland looks to have better route ...
