And the Bears will likely take none of those guys at #8.

What I find interesting, is that there aren't many D line or linebacker visits known.

I also find it interesting, that we haven't publically met with Saquon Barkley.

And to be thorough, I just watched some of Chris Streveler's game film. He'd be an interesting practice squad player if we bring him in undrafted.
I will kill you if you cut me at the knees. You will drink with me when invited and stay til I say so. We only listen to American Music. I make men nervous with just my presence. I expect an apology if you hold. I throw linemen at QB's. Believe the Lore!

I think the WR list should also include Anthony Miller, I think they set up a private workout for him in the past week or so.

EDIT: NVM, I see the post about Leming's spreadsheet which has Miller in there.

I know. It's like they setup visits only for guys who they have questions about. Some guys they may like or dislike without needing any more info. So visits are almost pointless from a "will we draft them" perspective? I'm going with that.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.

Not at all. Obviously not all visits are made public or are held in formal circumstances. Trubisky last year was a great example of that whole process. Cloak and dagger.

Too lazy to look, does anyone know if there was a public meeting with Leonard Floyd? I seem to recall there was.

A few trends I see.

Late round RB and OL

Mid round S

Early CB and WR

1st round across the board.
