The first 8 picks worked out QB-QB-QB-QB (Giants trade up)-OT(Alt)-WR(Harrison)-OT(Fashanu)-WR(Nabers). Turner was available. The Broncos offered #12 and a 2025 1st. The Raiders offered #13 and a 2025 1st. The Rams offered #19, #52, and a 4th, which was a bit lower than desired but there's some dept...

That and a lot of money will make everything right . Wonder if the team and/or the NFL will take disciplinary actions.

Worst case: the top 3 WRs and Alt are taken along with 4 QBs by the time the Bears pick. What then? Maybe trade to the 12 to 14 range for a team looking for the top CB, an OT, or someone wanting to roll the dice on Nix/Penix and get another 3rd? Trade down to 16 to 19 and get a 2nd? I'm in the mino...

Am I the only one who think Bates starts at center? I don't think Poles tried to sign him a year or two ago and then traded for him to have him be a back up. BJones, Jenkins, Bates, Davis, Wright. I like that lineup alot and it should be better than last season. I think Davis is going to have a mon...

The Bears have also researched Caleb's father, Carl, and his role in supporting his son. Dad almost never attended USC practices, once last year. He did not make nor try to influence Caleb in football matters. His role is ensuring that his son has the most opportunities to be successful. As such, h...

This year, there's perhaps 5 to 7 1st round OTs who will be available: Alt, Olu, Fuaga, Fatanu, Latham, Mimms, and Guyton. There are 2 IOL guys rated in the 1st round (JPP and Barton), perhaps another 1 or 2 in the 2nd round; the Bears signed one year rentals at C in free agency. The Bears have to b...

For many years, I've lamented the lack of live recordings of old Floyd stuff before Meddle. Maybe somewhere there is a live recording of Atom Heart Mother performed with an orchestra; I could die a happpy man if so. But I just discovered Nick Mason's 'Live At the Roundhouse', recorded live in 2018. ...

Boys, we have a decade of good football in front of us. Let's enjoy it and kick the shit out of the Packers for a while and get back on top of that all time head to head matchup, where we fucking belong. Please let this be true. I am so damn tired of the Packers and more so of their elitist, spoile...

And more from Friends of the Park: https://chicago.suntimes.com/fran-spielman-show/2024/04/05/bears-lakefront-stadium-friends-of-the-parks-gin-kilgore Sounds like they're gearing up for a full-blown battle over a Bears stadium on the South Lot. Warren has said that each year the Bears don't start de...

DJ is a pro and knows regardless of what he thought, he and CW will be teammates. Plus he'll have Allen along with Kmet, Everett, Swift, and possibly another WR in the draft. He has to like what Waldron brings to the team and the way the needle is pointing up for this team's offense.

Thought I read that the Bears would prefer a "speed" rusher to balance out Sweat's power. That would seem to point towards Turner and Latu. But I keep reading about Flus wanting a dominant 3T. Poles could have spent big on Wilkins but the team drafts another or Gervon steps up.

Not being nasty but a rookie Bears QB doesn't exactly have a really high bar to step over. Hopefully the Bears add more to the offense and CW breaks all Bears rookie QB records.

Something to read in the slow period we're in before it really heats up for the draft. The Lions were ranked highest at both RB and at OL: https://www.si.com/nfl/2024/04/04/nfl-best-teams-every-position-matt-verderame Perhaps next year we'll be talking about the Bears WR group being near or at the t...

Read that Nabers made a 30 visit, don't know when. Jha’Quan Jackson, Tulane WR is scheduled for one as is Elijah Jones, BC CB and Nathaniel Pritchett, Auburn CB are scheduled for visits. Need a source (link) on the Nabers visit please. This is the first I've heard that so I think it unlikely. Sever...

Supposedly a fight has broke out in AH over the Bears' plans. Folk are screaming at the school districts asking if they're willing to forego tax revenues which, although maybe not as big as they'd desire, would still be larger than almost any other development(s) on the property and allow for signif...

What has happened in other cities with proposed publicly funded stadiums: https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/2024/04/04/when-voters-say-no-to-new-stadiums-what-do-professional-sports-teams-do-next Decidedly a mixed bag.

Flus is really feening for his stud 3T but I'm not sure one is available this year. Braden Fiske might meet his criteria more than Murphy and Newton, He might still be available when the Bears pick at 3-75.

He said this will be the only 30 visit he'll be making. Commandos, eat your heart out. Sick, you know he's already got the playbook on the downlow. Aint nothing stopping this train! Oh sweet, Caleb's texting me a pic right now, I wonder what's up? https://www.si.com/.image/ar_1:1%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb...

Bears fans have and continue to go through the 5 stages of grief: Denial - no way this team can suck year after year and look embarrassingly bad against the Pack the past 30 years; Anger - god danged team can't continue to be this bad, stupid ass owners need to sell if they're not committed to build...

He paints his nails (which more than one guy does) to honor his mom, who's a nail tech.

Interesting developments in Kansas City, which highlights the sort of challenges the Bears may also face: Voters reject stadium tax for Royals, Chiefs intended to help fund new ballpark, Arrowhead Stadium renovations The future of the Royals and Chiefs in Kansas City was thrown into question Tuesda...

Trade up to 9 for Odunze?

Pretty far for the Bears to move down.

Poles has divided the scouting department into Team Ol, Team WR, and Team DE. Each team will make its case for taking one of their guys at #9. So, which team are you on and who's your guy? I'm picking Team WR and making the case for Rome Odunze. I doubt Nabers and Harrison make it to #9. Odunze is b...

The Bears are scheduling a local pro day for college players who live in the Chicagoland area. It seems like something they have done before. Guys attending are more likely to be undrafted and the team is always looking for its next Jack Sanborn: https://www.sportsmockery.com/chicago-bears/multiple-...

The 14 guys brought in or planned for 30s so far. No OTs. No Verse or Latu although I'd expect one or both tobe invited:

An article on the man. He could very well be a Poles target but the issues are would they try him at LT, put him at RT and try Wright at LT, or slide him inside: https://www.sportsmockery.com/chicago-bears/one-bears-draft-prospect-ryan-poles-might-secretly-be-coveting/ I think if he's the pick, the...

And then trade down from #2 for more picks and eventually take Penix late in the first to get him on that 5 year rookie contract ....
