Adam showed some re-work and cuts to make room. It can be done, not sure for Garrett's cap but have to be really creative to get that trophy. You have small opportunities and the Bears have it.

Just like Sherman Turner helped us this year. Hate to shatter any hope, but a beloved will get moved to make room for real help. The Bears have a window and a 25th-32nd pick is not going to help. Id Trade DJ, our 1st and a 2027 1st or 2nd for Myles Garrett. Then cut whoever you need to for the cap

If Cleveland is rebuilding odds are they will want draft picks not players with big contracts. Next year Cleveland is under water on their cap. If they trade Garrett they will have to eat 41 mil in Dead Cap to pick up 17 mil in Cap space. That still keeps them in a negative.

People like to talk about getting this stud and that stud edge but you have to look at contracts. Reality check is find one we can fit in our Cap and someone other teams may trade for? Jarrett, Dayo aren't productive enough to trade and have big contracts. Trey Hendrixson is a free agent next year, find 35 mil a year to give to him. Sweat is our best edge that will have over 10 sacks on the year. He's not top tier but getting rid of him doesn't make us better. Our DL help will be coming in the draft.

Montez stepped up a little with 9.5 sacks, but damn Garrrett with 22. Falcons rookie Jame Pierce with 8.5

If the Bears had Garrett they would be instant favorites. Picking so late this year and hopefully next, trading 2 - 1sts wouldn't hurt my feelings as long as we have the rest of our picks. Maybe throw in DJ Moore to help Shedour with a 1st & 2nd.

for sure. There is no rookie you can get after pick 20 that is ready to hit the field terrorizing NFL O Linemen on day one. Even if all our picks go to the DL, we still need a free agent or two. Jaylon Johnson and our first rounder for Garrett? Probably need to add something more to it too. And we would have to trade Edmunds as well somewhere to make room for Garretts contract.

both probably.

The sad part is that was supposed to be Montez Sweat. Does he need stud DTs to wreck the inside or does he need replaced?

Since I do not seeing a rookie being a threat to opponents year one, they will have to find a way through re-doing contracts or trading players. Would fa's Trey Hendrickson or Joey Bosa have enough in the tank to be that threat? Or try to trade for a Myle Garrett? The FA route might allow them to draft prospects and to fit the cap, they may have to trade/cut DJ, Kmet, Edmunds.

And no one was ever scared of Dayo. We need a difference maker, or several on the D line. It's the glaring need for this team. Imagine us doing all the things we do AND having a pass rush. Then we'd be serious contenders who would be favorited in most games.

I take you to mean that you agree thats our biggest need, but if there is a run on D linemen, and the available players are very substandard for the pick, and some other amazing player is there, we might not pick the D lineman. It's a fair point, with TE instead of OT as one example last year, and Burden as another. Another answer might be to trade down in that scenario. Also, every year the team fills holes with free agents before the draft. Some are starter level some are semi starter level, but you never want to go into the draft with hard needs for the reason you just said. And if that free agent is someone significant, it makes the need to get a starter ready player less, and you can find guys to develop. But one way or another, we are not just gonna shift some bodies around on the D line and go with the same faces as some might say. I believe this is the thing standing between us and a Superbowl (unless we just do it this year anyway LOL) we NEED a pass rush, and you know Johnson knows it too. Theyre gonna do something major, they kind of have to, and if that in turn may cause them to trade players Like Jaylon Johnson, Tremaine Edmunds and/or DJ Moore, that might have to happen. It's not that those players are terrible, not at all, its just we have to get some dollars and picks on that D line because they guys we have now are just not anywhere near good enough. not for where the rest of this team is headed.

All I am saying is everyone that says it is a guarantee the Bears will draft a RD1 DL/DT should keep an open mind. Odds are good that happens but locking it in, never from me.

Kittle didn't practice today, they will be off tomorrow, so we will see what he looks like on Friday.

Dayo may not be ready to contribute. Coming off an achilles rupture, he may never be explosive again. I would also argue against move around pieces. We need positional dogs to create a pass rush.

This captures the only part of the game you need to watch. If you want a shot of adrenaline, play this. https://youtu.be/FzOLrsGW5DY?si=TngUDEh_IRQZOF15

Wow, I forget this.

There's always someone to draft. What the experts may rate as the best may not be. In a redraft, where are teams picking Monangai? Newman looks like he could have been a first year starting OG in the NFL but we picked up top flight players there. He was a 5 th round pick. They will find players. Booker, Turner will be better.

When some people talk about trading players next year, his name comes up a lot. No way BJ is letting this happen. Last week showed why you keep all your weapons, you need them. This doesn't get old https://youtube.com/shorts/877dmv-lvkA?si=1fzGTIoB4McyNBgE

This is a very realistic draft. I think Dayo plays more snaps inside next year and would go 2 DEs instead of 2 DTs. I suspect they get someone that can play both spots to be able to move around pieces.

I know he has inconsistent coverage but so many of his plays have been so clutch it has to stick out to whoever is watching. Watch any CB other than Pat Surtain, They all have bad plays.

This seems like an impossible achievement to beat SF peaking at this time of the year but I just watched impossible. Offensively we have to control the clock, run well and stop the penalties. That puts us in a spot to win. We did it in Philly and we can do it here. Their defense gives up a lot of points and both offenses are scoring 26 points a game.
