Makes more sense. It's just too close to the draft to suddenly change things up so drastically.

The Gazillion dollar question: https://www.windycitygridiron.com/2024/4/22/24137554/nfl-draft-poll-survey-chicago-bears-trade-up-trade-down-or-stay-at-9-and-pick-marvin-harrison-jr The trifecta of possibilities.

Considering we're just three days out from the draft, you'd think that the Commish would put a little hitch in his giddyap over this matter.

I still vividly remember back in the day hating Dennis Rodman more than any other player in the NBA with the possible exception of Bill Lambeer. Then the Bulls signed him and suddenly I became a huge Dennis Rodman fan. I adopted the popular attitude back then that yeah, he's an asshole, but...

Here's one that's a lot more strict against the Falcons: https://www.nbcsportschicago.com/nfl/chicago-bears/bears-draft/nfls-potential-falcons-tampering-discipline-could-give-bears-critical-nfl-draft-gift/556504/ While it's unlikely the league would strip Atlanta of its first-round pick, the...

Ok, passing on either Odunze or Turner is bad enough, but passing on both? Imposserous!!! https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2024/04/16/nfl-mock-draft-2024-chicago-bears-go-for-usc-qb-caleb-williams-first-but-whos-next 9. Bears — Penn State OT Olumuyiwa Fashanu Poles is an offensive lineman...

And speaking of rumors, the one growing the loudest of late is if the Bears keep the 9th instead of trading back, it's going to be used on Byron Murphy II. Again, just rumors, but they keep on keepin' on.

The latest rumor, which I think is just that, a rumor, it's the Falcons won't have to forfeit the pick altogether, but instead swap spots with Minny. That would still be advantageous for the Bears, as the Vikes aren't in the hunt for a WR. And of course that's assuming they'd keep the pick.

Anybody who wants to play 20 years for the same team and looks to Tom Brady for his target goals is okie dokie in my book.

Zero chance of either slipping to the 2nd round, let alone both.

Belichick: Now if you rotate just a quarter turn downward.........

I'm assuming you're talking about Williams. Sad to say, it won't take much in the passing dept for him to be a success relative to Fields. In his three years with the Bears, Justin averaged per season only 2200+ yards, 13 TDs and 10 INTs. Obviously those bad numbers aren't all on him. And...

History is meaningless. Whole new regime, you plan for the now, not the back then.

Maybe the ring dissolved in the chili.

At this point he's been my biggest disappointment. I've come to expect the usual letdowns of Eloy and Yoan, but I always hoped Vaughn was ready to break out. So far, not this year, not even remotely close.

I just posted on the Bears board that Latu has been climbing numerous draft boards of late, and just might be the Bears pick at #9.

Last up: Trading the pick This option doesn't really call for top candidates or honorable mentions, altho we can always plug in names here. The big question is if Poles does seek a trade, will it be back or will he move up? I can't rule other names out completely, but the only one I see where...

3rd up: DE/Edge Top candidates: Dallas Turner, Jared Verse, Laitu Latu Honorable mention: Chop Robinson, Byron Murphy II (DT) Pro: Our single biggest need by position, Montez Sweat needs a bookend to help take the double team pressure off him. It's the closest to our only glaring need on the...

Next up: OT Top candidates: Joe Alt, Olu Fashanu, JC Latham Honorable mention: Graham Barton Pro: Can a team's OL ever be strong enough? While there is no gaping hole, getting a top rated tackle would only bolster an improving OL Con: LT seems to be the key need, but is it really? PFF has...

One week from tonite, diehards!!! So it's pretty much been down to what Poles will do at #9, being Williams with the first pick is a foregone conclusion. And with that it's also pretty much down to 3 key positions: OT, WR, and DE/Edge. Guess in we can throw in a 3.5 by adding DT. Don't think...

LOL, yeah a next year conditional 6th for a 1st round pick, who was traded up to acquire to begin with. No doubt, the Bears made out like bandits.

Tell us something we don't already know: https://sports.yahoo.com/chicago-white-sox-facing-a-bleak-present-and-a-long-road-back-to-relevance-150010606.html

LOL, actually yeah you're right. I still recall soooooooo vividly during the regular season that a sizable percentage of Bears fans, including yours truly, were counting on Fields to improve to the point that we didn't need to draft any QB and instead count on the immense haul we'd receive in...

With the first pick of the draft, the Bears will take Caleb Williams. I know, I'm going out on a limb with this one. But that's me, the risk taker.
