Well it did make some sense when i wrote it, and I hope so, but today im reading both were injured, so I guess not. I have high hopes for this season, but it feels like the real defensive overhaul will be next year.

I'm 95% Kromah makes the 53.

yes youre right - I read today both Booker and Dexter were injured. Too bad! I guess we should be thankful that the offense will be healthy for opening day (except perhaps/probably Trapilo?) but I have serious concerns about this defense, even healthy, so all the injuries are worrisome for sure. Heard Stevenson went down too. Yikes.

Definitely Kaden Davis gets on the roster. Only IF they did trade Dexter, Street is the next one up that can flex between DT and DE. It seems like Turner will be on the initial pup list that lasts 4 weeks. (I think) Im interested in what they do with Hyppolite. He is starting to show some game. You cant teach his speed for a LB . 4.39 BUSH-JACKSON-EDWARDS-SANBORN-ELLIOTT-?

The last training camp practice just wrapped up. Now we head into the final preseason game where several backup spots are in play. Bring on a lunch break and my phone i’m not in a position to do a full 53 But I want to get the conversation started Oline. I think we keep 10 but could just as easily see 9 if Ozzy is close to returning. I’ll need to see the game to make a decision on Wills vs Benedet. 10 would be the team hedging their bets and buying time on the LT competition with both Wills and Benedet. Kaden Davis makes it as the 6th WR. Dline 9. Grady, Dexter, VDB, Gallimore, and Lynch. Booker, Sweat, Dayo, Kromah. Lynch is place holder until Turner is ready to go and he has lined up at DE at times. I listed Kromah but he still needs to earn it in this game.

Josh Sweat would be a horrible trade for us. Just an average pass rusher with little run stopping. I don’t see him as a good fit especially for the contract he has. If Booker is involved then obviously the trade would have to be for a DE. I can’t see that happening and for which player.

I just read that BJ stated Booker's absence is due to a groin injury and his status is "week-to-week!" What is it with the Bears and groin injuries? Someone needs to take a good look at how our strength and conditioning staff is handling them.

That could be. Crosby? There would be a lot of quiet negotiations to sort out between contract and his health.

Chad is keeping Pickens and lose his 4th. Mike is keeping Rashee Rice and lose his 7th. Mike gave me his money. So I will pay both his and mine today and Chad paid already.

I dont like them either. I would prefer dark pants with the orange highlights.

Other than Bryant the other injuries seem to be not long term. As far as trading Dexter, rumors fly all the time but with Poles seeking a trade chances are he gets it done. Now I heard another rumor Josh Sweat wants a trade. Im not sure the Bears are still trying to upgrade the DE position. We signed Davenport, which could not add anything but was a cheap contract so why not check it out. We have Sweat-Booker-Dayo-Davenport. Add the emergence of Kromah and Lynch logging reps at DE. Now if an injury pops up (maybe Booker) then that could change. If we sign anyone else it wont be a big money contract. IMO. We signed another LB Antonio Greer, with the injury to Sewell. In 4 days they start making cuts, Greer is only here for the last game? Seemed odd to me.

i wonder if Booker and Dexter might be part of a potential trade.

I have one of those. Frank Thomas edition. They are sweet!

I'm also concerned about Booker, who has been absent from practices the past few days without any explanation from the Bears.

Great with Luther back out there - even if just some individual drills. I’m hoping we get good news and see Monagai back at some point this week too and keep hoping we see Kyler make an appearance too.

I don’t like them at all - don’t look like Bears uniforms. I’m also not an Illinois fan. I’d rather see a Bears/Bulls collab like those sweet Sox city connect jerseys.

Speaking of football, did everyone see the Bears’ Rivalry unis? The one they’ll wear during the Packers game on Christmas? I oscillate between liking them, then not. I see where they wanted to reach back to their roots (which to me is awesome) but something just seems…off.

I did not go after Pix. I said what he said about me was false. Please can we talk about football? PLEASE?

I mean, going after Pix of all people? Wowza. Now Mongo and Stinger I get, but Pix? First we lose Dolly and now this.

I slide the draft to Monday night, the 7th at 7pm Central. For Keepers, any Keepers for Chad or "My Team Sucks"?

Thank you, and yes. Thats all I want.

Its been 6 months since I butted heads with anyone. Of course you know that because you pay attention.

Burden and Wright are both at practice, good vibes for a change.

I see it all. Look at your ages, you are all pretty much old men, so act like it. I don't enjoy reading your jabs back and forth that just circle over and over. Instead of wanting to add your rebuttal, move on. Life is easier, the website is better, and we can read better content.

This all reminds me of Joe Pesci in Goodfellas...
