Interesting table, I suppose when you have the worst record in the NFL and a bunch of free agents you’ve got the most scope to improve

Taking Double A first is starting to grow on me. At 9? I don't know - if he is going to be as good as people seem to think, then why not? Why not get that 5th year for a stud DT? The Bears only have one first rounder - so if they're taking someone at 9 I can rationalize it. Trading down and risking...

Again, I think they're really looking for ADETOMIWA ADEBAWORE at 3T (HA, I have to keep cutting and splicing his name to get it right :-P ). The more tape I watch of this guy, the more convinced I am. Right now, he's climbing and expected to go at top of round 2. I could see him in a trade down. Bu...

Bearlissimo likes him too. Good analysis.

I think it’s a bit of a fallacy to ‘rate on off season’ because it removes the context within which it’s occurred. I think if you asked Poles team to rate the off season they’d say 9/10. Not perfect, it never will be, but everything has gone according to their plan. Like I say, 12 mths ago we had m...

If nobody is freaking out, tell me why it’s brought up by the same 3-4 people every single thread. If you truly believe this team can compete right now, then you believe they added a ton of talent already in comparison of last season. I think they can compete, and I think they still have holes to f...

What would people’s thoughts be if the Bears traded down again and took Kancey out of Pitt? I’m very happy with a trade down. Steelers or Seattle are the 2 teams I’d look to trade with. Steelers have 17 and our 32 (I want these back) Seattle have 20 and 37 - this would be acceptable. I don’t know a...

I’m not worried by Poles’ plan. He’s sticking to the plan - good for him. Remember when we had one of the worst cap situations and one of the leanest draft capital? Yeah, that was 12 months ago, when Poles took over. Loaded with vets who were past their peak but still on big contracts. Multiple year...

Exactly.
I mean it’s meaningless.
This is how fast he could run, in a straight line (meaningless) with no pads on (meaningless).

I dont think Leatherwood is in the plans. I may be wrong. But, I would have thought he would have played more last season if he was. I also believe Whitehair is more of a luxury than the plan at this point. We know he can play and we do not know who we get in the draft yet. Plans for him may change...

Bears sign a TE and water is still wet

Didn’t disgrace himself, wish him well

I think Poles is of the mindset - if I can get sure fire star players like Edmunds then I’ll pay them. If I can only get decent players in FA then I’ll grow my own star players. I think Leatherwood or Borom are going to be starters on the Oline. Perhaps they’re going to draft a tackle too and let th...

Good news, we need players in this position

UOK - my take away there There is a lot of crummy OL in the NFL Man…there really is. And I think that’s the point. Why pay a chunk of money for say Orlando Brown - who wants to be a LT - when you have a rookie who is thriving and improving at LT and you need a RT. Are there any stud RTs in FA or th...

Personally, I’d cut him

I have a new theory and it could be an exciting outcome. We all know how well B Jones has done since being a 5th round draft last year. Poles brought in Leatherwood - a player who has been described as having incredible physical traits. We have Teven Jenkins - a very highly rated OT in college. We ...

Sounds like some kind of fetish menu

I feel for this kid right now. I hate seeing people pile on and that's what's happening to him. Time will tell if it's fair or not but public opinion is easily swayed and not always correct. I feel for him too, because I've been there myself and I'm sure others have, too. You’re right, I struggle w...

Good luck and good health to them all.
They may not be good enough but they didn’t disrespect the team.
I wish them well

I’m officially over my little melodrama of spamming every thread with my disappointment. I remain slightly frustrated that I feel Fields is still vulnerable given the O line but what I have embraced is “the process”. Poles is rock solid in his gameplan and you’ve got to respect that. He’s “building ...

Alot of TEs I like in FA and the draft this year. I honestly would like another one to pair with kmet. I wouldnt be upset with a FA and a draft pick, and Kuntz is one of the prospects I like too. Just put TE on the list of guys to be drafted along with OT, C, 3T, DT, DE, CB, RB, did I forget any po...

Seconded, or thirded

Adetomiwa is a great prospect. Get him in the second
