I could see a blue chip dropping to 9 and be to sweet to not take. I could see a trade back. I could see me drinking heavily draft night.

And has the benefit of a decent team. Like some analysts have said, rare is it the best QB in a draft doesn't immediately get drafted by the worst team in the NFL. Bears do not exactly fit that billing. Rare for a team to pickup a "generational type", "best since Luck" qb with a 9 win record...

Yes, but the precipitous drop off after Allen and Moore is shocking. Hence the Bears need at Wr. Takes more than 2 to run a pro offense.

Keeping in mind we only have 4 picks. Sure bring in many. Now do I think Poles moves down for more picks at some point? Even at 9, probably so. Bothers me not if he keeps it if "his" guy(s) drop to 9. My thought is, one of the 4-5 QB's drop to the 9 spot and Poles moves down for that. Tho...

What OT spot is is need of replacement? I'm confused by this. Only 3 picks that make sense to me, Wr, Te, ans DE. Only Te because of Bowers.

I just can't see the Bears staying at 9. Especially if one of the first round type qb's are still undrafted.

No, I was strictly meaning O linemen. Yes one of the top Wr if available or one of the top DE's are possible. I still belive, if a partner can be found a trade down.

Better hope for a trade down then as Alt is the only viable option lineman worth taking at 9 and as the article noted, not really an area of dire need. No second round pick means your in third round territory, 1 pick with 3rd round territory holes at Wr and Interior oline. >shrugs<

I believe 5 Running backs and Wr (including Aman St Brown) were fined for lowering their heads by the league post games... Non of these were called on the field. This could be a bigger concern than the calls on the field for players.

You can pull a guy down from behind, what you cannot do is land on the back of his legs. Drop to the side of his legs is fine. There is a line and that line is the hands on the hips and drop onto the legs. Now from what I understand, you can also tackle the legs from behind, you just can't...

While I do not disagree with the idea of one of the top 3 WR being available at 9, there is also the possibility with the deep WR class, you still pick up a starting caliber Wr later in the first and still allow for the pickup of a 3tech or DE or C in the second that could also be of starting...

seriously, after all the belly aching you've done over the QB position, you're going with WR being THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITION? You know what, I agree with you. Go WR with the Number 1 overall pick and run with Bagent as the starting QB next year.

Guys, be prepared for the trade down from #9. Poles needs picks and the only way to acquire them, and given the fact he needs a second round pick, expect a deeper trade down to the 20's to acquire a 2nd rounder plus the first round 20ish pick. Especially given the deep WR draft class, the fact...

Yea, really not a fan of pass and catch other than a determination of arm strength, but honestly, that's in his college tape as well. More interested in how he can read a defense which is always the greater unknown until one actually takes a snap against NFL defenses. So, assuming the Bears...

That is "doing right" by Justin when you feel like you are doing him an injustice. My guess is, upper management approved this action. Because you are not wrong in saying it is a business, you do what is best for the business, unless as an owner, you make concessions understanding the...

Think the idea of Ryp is his knowledge of the playbook. Are there any available qb veterans with that understanding? Dunno.

Is this the boards akin to going third person?

Heh, Fields and his legs as well.

2025 conditional 6th or 4th depending upon play time.

I'll give you one other reason why Allen made sense, There is no way to build this Roster with 5 picks, mostly mid round. In fact, with the Allen trade, the Bears only have 4 picks, one of which will be a QB, so 3 picks left to fill a roster with young.talent. All that to say, no way Poles...

I do not disagree with your assertions other than to say, Bears have to spend money. If not Allen then they are paying someone. Allen is a one year rental to help with a rookie qb (one hopes). Giving him two wide out veterns that know their position, know how to read NFL defenses to make the...

Correct, all the Bears have at Wr is DJ and a bunch of scrubs. You still have to field a Team rebuilding or not. You can't go into a season with 1 starting Wr, unless you like running 1 Wr sets. And again, my point, no free agent Wr is going to a team with no qb. It is a business, Wr want to...

With a new QB incoming, maybe, does not hurt to have a very good, when healthy, vet around. Don't care if it is a short term rental, one is better than none. Hey, would I prefer Jamar Chase, sure. Bears had to TRADE for a WR because with uncertainty at QB, who is coming to Chicago? Can you...

He fills in a huge hole at Wr. Bears did not have one, fill in or not. How hard is that for you to understand? Yes this is a deep wr draft, but as of right now Bears do not have a lot of picks. Hence, I do not see the Bears keeping pick 9 which may eliminate the top 3 Wr in the draft.

All I know is, prior to this trade the Bears were getting ready to field a Team with only 1 NFL starting caliber wide receiver. Now they can start 2. I seriously doubt any 4th rounder could/would accomplish that task at a premier position.
