Bears Mock Attempt 2

[RichH55]

Trade DOWN #20

Bears Trade #20 and 2022 2nd Round Pick to Ravens for Orlando Brown, #27, and 2022 3rd Round Pick

#27. Z. Collins - "LB" - Tulsa

I think he is an absolute talent that can do a bit of everything - Someone made a Demarcus Ware comp - and I like it. He has a TON of versatility too - can rush the passer but can be more solid than you'd think in coverage - Has some size too (265-270) so he could hold the edge better than expected

This will - most likely - be Quinn's last year here (and you are not actually guaranteed much production) - I already plan on spending Quinns money on Brown going forward

The draft is also pretty light at this position


#52 Trade Down - Jacksonville - We get picks 65 and 106 (3rd and 4th Rounds)

#65 Elijah Molden - CB Washington

I have NO feel for this year's CB group - But this pick is almost pigeonholed into being a CB


#83 - Spencer Brown - OT Northern Iowa

He needs to work on his technique - Everything else is in place - Size and Temperment

#106 Davis Mills - QB Stanford. (Also considered Trask)

I would not taken Kellen Mond at all unless its like a 6th


ROUND 4 TRADE UP
Late Round 4 Trade up (6th and pick next year)

WR- Eskridge - WR Western Michigan

Speed. This is a great draft for WR - I would take 2-3 honestly.

If Eskridge is gone - I would probably take Nico Collins instead

Round 5 - Hamlin - DB Pittsburgh

I think he is a 10 year SS in the league.

I get TJ Ward comps


Round 5 - Anthony Miller traded -

Amari Rodgers - WR Clemson

I think he's just excellent. Just a Professional WR that can do most of the things you want



3 6ths

Best Available guys I'm seeing in this "range" that I like:


Dylan Moses - LB Alabama
Elerson Smith - OLB - Northern Iowa
Ben Mason - FB
Tre McKitty - TE
Felton - HB UCLA
Wade - CB tOSU (betting on talent more than game film)


6th - Elerson Smith - Northern Iowa


6th Tre McKitty - TE Georgia


Trade down

7th. St. Juste - CB Minnesota

7th - Felton - HB UCLA unless Trey Sermon was somehow still on the Board



Players/Picks
1. Z. Collins LB- Tulsa
Orlando Brown - LT - Ravens
3. E. Molden - CB - Washington
3. Spencer Brown - OT Northern Iowa
4. Davis Mills - QB Stanford
4. Eskridge - WR Western Michigan
5. Rodgers - WR Clemson
5. Hamlin - S - Pitt
6. Elerson Smith - OLB - Northern Iowa
6. Tre McKitty - TE Georgia
7. St. Juste - CB Minnesota
7. Felton - HB/WR UCLA

Priority FAs:
Powell - WR Clemson
Strachan - WR Charleston
James Smith - P Cincy
Tuf Borland - ILB - tOSU
Josh Imatohebho - WR Illinois
Tommy Togaili - DL - tOSU

That's a good draft but no way Mills is there in the 4th. We'd be lucky to get him at 52.

[RichH55]

If that's the only pick I'm wildly optimistic about - I'd be shocked- ha

[Yogi da Bear]

Rich, you're drafts are just too hopelessly optimistic. Hell, they're almost on par with Erie's old drafts. lol

[Z Bear]

This just got blown up, Brown just got traded to the Chiefs. You compensation just did not match KC's offer, lol.

Baltimore will get the Chiefs’ first-, third-, and fourth-round picks this year and a 2022 fifth-rounder while sending their 2021 second-round pick and a 2022 sixth-rounder to Kansas City

Did get blown up

I wasn't that far off in value though

I think when you read the trade charts - Ravens got less than a 1st Rounder overall in terms of value

Could be - and everyone seems to be in lockstep that Davis Mills won't be there in the 4th (so he becomes Trask)

I did look at a few sites (admittedly cherrypicking where I could - I mean Elerson Smith seems way, way underrated it seems) - CBS, ESPN, Nfl.com

There is DEFINITELY less group think then normal - take the tOSU DL I have as priority FA - He's rated as such by ESPN but Gil Brandt has

What I SHOULD have done (part1) is use the Athletic list I had that was a consensus top 300 based on a bunch of lists (even then: it's not anywhere near perfect - If 5 teams have a guy as the 80th best prospect and every other team doesn't think he's top 300 - He's still going closer to 80 than he is to be undrafted)

It's probably more fair to almost do a Flow Chart - but this was hard to read as is (should have done part 2)

I wouldn’t be shocked if we go pass rusher in the first, but I’d go Rousseau over Collins.

What are your guys thoughts on Rousseau?
