Some local Dallas guys are speculating that the Niners are trying to package Brandon Aiyuk plus their 1st and 2nd round picks to move up to 9 so they can take one of the top tackles.
I don't know if there's legs to it, but it's at least a rumor on Dallas sports radio.

Re: Jer’zhan Newton
I really want the Texas monster in the 3rd now (some even have him slipping to 4th) He can't give you 80% of the snaps ......50% is absolutely pushing it But he can give you dominant snaps Absolutely perfect guy for a rotation What's interesting about T. Sweat is that he's like 6'5 345lbs, and yet ...

Re: My Guy for the 2024 Draft
I like Marshawn Kneeland, but he sorta just reminds me of a little bit lighter Walker.

Re: Bears sign Ian Cunningham to Extension
As others have pointed out, this is a good business move by the Bears. They know he's getting a GM gig soon, so this extension ensures that they receive comp picks.

Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
Leaf had problems that went beyond just his ego. He had significant behavioral issues that the Chargers just flat out ignored. He also got legit fat right before the draft and blew off scheduled visits with the Colts. There were red flags all over the place, but there wasn't as much of a peek behind...

Outside of QB, my "need" ranking is: Pass Rusher (preferably off the edge) WR OL (doesn't matter if it's T/G/C, but preferably IOL) 3rd TE LB I don't have S or Corner on my list for 2024. DT specifically is pretty low too. They have Dexter/Pickens/Billings/Walker/Cowart. And there's still ...

Re: 2024 Draft - How Many Picks?
Defense isn't completely irrelevant just because the Bears are drafting Caleb Williams. Especially when the Bears have done an excellent job in surrounding Williams with established veterans. Alt absolutely will not be there. MHJ absolutely will not be there. Nabers probably will not be there. Odun...

Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
Unless Williams is just completely full of it, like to a pathological level, I think that Poles and Co would have been able to sus out if he's not coachable by now.

Re: Borom may be in jeopardy
I was absolutely convinced that I was the best outside linebacker on my college football team. Hands down.
But what had happened was...I really wasn't. I was 3rd string and ended up getting moved to tight end and even spent part of a season as a very undersized offensive tackle.

I'm predicting 7 I personally would steer for even more. People have been repeating "this is a bad draft at the bottom". I think that's overblown. I can find TONS of R4-5 players I would LOVE to have on the roster. Less so in 6/7, but R6/7 is always a longshot. And even there, the Bears d...

There's going to have to be some wild stuff that happens for Alt to be there at 9. Like historically wild stuff.

Re: 2024 Draft - How Many Picks?
I still gotta chuckle about how fans want to keep drafting for defense because that's a Bears tradition. So pass on a more elite player at #9 so we can draft two or three more less elite players with a later 1st round pick and a couple day two picks. Quantity over top quality. We already know how t...

Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
It's just so funny to me that RG3 believes the Bears are going to ruin Williams' career, so he's pushing for Williams to take a firm stance so that he can end up with the team that ruined HIS own career.

I know he's probably too early for a late round "my guy", but I would really like to see Minnesota Safety Tyler Nubin in a Bears uniform. I think he's a fantastic center fielder Free Safety type, and could take over for Byard. Always loved his ball skills. Problem is he's probably going i...

I could be completely wrong, but I just feel like this Murphy-to-the-Bears talk is a lot of nonsense. Murphy isn't even close to what the Bears look for in a 3T. This isn't Lovie Smith's Bears. It's clickbait. No reasonable person would believe that the Bears are taking a DT at #9. It's Edge, WR, o...

I'm hoping for the "drop ATL to 32" scenario because it helps the Bears so much. I wouldn't mind if they lost the #8 pick all together.

Re: WAB Mock Draft
If we're not trading back, I'm going to assume either Fashanu or Turner are still there. They would be hard to pass up. You also have 8 OT's going in the first round, which would be an NFL Draft record. Not saying it's not possible. So much talent at that position this year. Overall though, if we c...

Re: 2024 Draft - How Many Picks?
Poles is going to trade back several slots. I'm guessing between picks 15-20. I'm gonna say that the Steelers trade up from 20 to 9, and pick Rome Odunze before the Jets can get him. They give up #20, #51, #98 plus a 2025 3rd round pick. Lucky for the Bears, there's a run on OT's between picks 10 a...
