    QB Selection Poll

    Do you think teams get that much out of pro days? At this point, at most it could be used as a tiebreaker, but I doubt it sways the pendulum very much.
  2. If feels like we are splitting hairs if we are evaluating interactions with people on the sidelines during a pro day. Here is 20 minutes of video of Williams playing in structure. There are some sweet passes in here.
  3. If anyone is interested, here are some high school highlight videos of Williams from 16-19. He looked pretty polished for a 16 and 17 year old. https://www.hudl.com/profile/6269274/Caleb-Williams Also, something I didn't realize, he missed his entire senior year of high school football to the COVID year. So the epic game he won coming in for Rattler his freshman year at OU, Caleb was only 19 years old at the time and really hadn't played in a live game for almost 2 years.
  4. If you are deducting Fields total, then you have to also deduct Foreman's and add Swift's. Swift had (1,029) and Foreman had (425), which is +604, which would put them right back into 2nd place. You are also not accounting for any potential rushing yards from Williams. So in reality, the rushing game should be at least as effective as last year.
  5. Yeah, and if you think about it, some trades are next year's picks. So it does make a lot of sense. Also, I think if you rush it, that is when you over-extend and everything crashes down. Just because the Bears have 2 picks in the top 9 instead of one pick in the first and one pick in the second, doesn't mean you need to trade down. Some people don't like the "traded for player" argument, so even if you removed the traded for players, the Bears draft would still be: 1st Round = #1 2nd+5th+6th+7th = #9 3rd Round = #75 4th Round = #122 I think everyone in a heartbeat would trade a 2nd rounder, 5th, 6th, and 7th for #9, everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.
  6. Also, Swift putting in the work with Roschon. There are a couple of vids there. Roschon looking quicker. Swift is smooth.
  7. Here is a great podcast from Pat the Designer and Jason McKie talking with Caleb's HS coach. He basically debunks all the "red flags". Also talks about Olu as they were both on the same team. So if anyone needed more info about Caleb and his family, they hit the coach with some pretty straightforward questions. Pat is really good at what he does. I am finding his Podcast with Courtney Cronin to be the most level headed of the bunch. er
  8. With 5 picks between 120ish-200ish, I could see Poles using one or two of them on a player trade or even to move into this year's draft if he really wanted to. Hearing how weak the draft is after Round 3, it does make sense to hold onto next year's as it will be deeper.
  9. Also, this is how 2025 is lining up (estimates): 1st Round CHI #20 - Projected Starter 2nd Round (CAR #37) - Projected Starter 2nd Round CHI #52 - Projected Starter 3rd Round CHI #84 4th Round CHI #120 5th Round CHI #155 6th Round (PIT #194) 6th Round CHI #196 6th Round (MIA #200) and to put the 2 drafts into perspective, the 2024 draft is worth 4615 pts, the 2025 draft as listed above is worth 2,050 pts. With 9 picks, I say there is less of a need to trade #9 unless everyone on your board for that value is gone, which is extremely unlikely.
  10. Yes we are. No matter what happens at 9, 75, and 122, this ends up as a pretty epic draft: 1st Round - Caleb Williams + #9 2nd Round - Montez Sweat 3rd Round - #75 4th Round - Keenan Allen + #122 5th Round - Ryan Bates Basically 5 starters + a 4th rounder and Ryan Bates.
  11. I am sure they are. If they can't get Williams, they are better off trading down and getting extra picks.

    QB Selection Poll

    Williams top 2 WRs were Tahj Washington and Brenden Rice, he now gets DJ Moore and Keenan Allen. His top TE was Lake McRee, now he gets Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett. Jayden Daniels could go from Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas to Kendrick Bourne and Demario Douglas.
  13. The more I think about it, the more I think the Bears are taking a player at #9 or if anything only trading down a few picks. My assumption is the Bears do not expect to be back in the top 10 any time soon, so if you are that high, get the blue chip player, because you will always have a chance to draft a guy between 20-30 every year. Guys I would select if at #9: MHJ, Nabers, Odunze, Alt, or Murphy. If they are all gone at #9, I am ok trading down, but would need to get an Edge, Bowers, or Newton, and depending on what number they move down to, even consider JPJ. As long as it is WR/DL/OL it fills a need.
  14. I know the Bears need to go BPA, but if they trade down, I would really like them to address Edge in the first or second round. Then with the other 3 picks, get a WR, DT, and Center. Running a ton of mocks, if the Bears don't trade down, they are only getting one blue chipper at 9. By the time they get around to their 3rd rounder, it is more rotational guys at that point. That's probably where you can get your Center. So unless a small group of players falls to #9, they seem better off trading to mid-teens and picking up a 2nd rounder. Byron Murphy is a name I keep seeing at #9. I think he is now in the mix after the WRs and Bowers. The Edges seem to be falling to mid teens.
