I sure hope not, but didn't Detroit grab Gibbs while they still had Montgomery & Swift? I dont exactly recall.

But honestly, you want to improve the running game by leaps and bounds, fix the middle of the O line first.

yes they did, deemed as stupid as drafting Ragnow in the first round.

I read this a week ago,and like you,I was kinda like what the heck is that pick.....Only thing I can think of the writer must think we will be signing olineman during freeagency......or he does not know how bad our line is/was.....

EVen if we did have that oline in place,Id rather see top rated dline in place before rb.....
Altho having a Gibbs type of rb would be great,he Gibbs is probably a product of that oline Detroit has......and Im not saying he is only a product of that line,but it sure does help him alot.....

it was more interesting reading that Jerry Jones wanted to trade up and also interview Deion for his head coaching position.

Takind a rb high in the draft to me is not dumb.....just as long as they have an oline in place.

Would have to be some kind of RB, I tell you.

For the Bears right now is dumb,maybe in another season,but Im actually hoping in 2026,we are draftingin the 26-32 pick.....

But it looks to me Detroit got Gibbs right and Atlanta got Bijan right.....
Not sure what other teams has taken rb high......

Not advocating a RB that early, but Swift isnt the answer imo.

Lots of RB about to hit free agency but none stand out as a more-improved option to Swift.

Agree.

Detroit, however, already had their offensive line in order when they took Gibbs.

Bears don't have that so I have to believe their plan is gonna be different.

There are some capable RBs that will be free agents and you can always draft a skill guy later. I don't see how that #10 pick can be a runner.

Ben Johnson was asked by a reporter yesterday how his offense would look with the Bears and if he would employ the same scheme he used with the Lions. His answer was basically that things would look different with the Bears because the players are different. Which is 100% the right answer.

I gotta believe a creative offensive guy like Johnson is drooling over being able to work with a QB like Caleb Williams. There are things CW can do inside and outside the pocket that Goff simply can't do.

I expect Johnson to push to add speed to the offense and I think you can expect to see a spread type offense next season. BJ likes play action....CW didn't perform well in play action in his rookie year. That's fixable with practice and coaching. CW also needs work on his deep ball accuracy. I think it's here where BJ will help the most because he will attack the middle of the field more down the seams.

I can't wait for free agency so we get a better idea of what the draft plan is gonna be.
