Im not saying both cant be correct at the same time. Its not one or the other. Many people can have the same opinions, as well as how the Bears see it. The Bears dont have control of the board,, they will let players fall to them, or at a reasonable price move up. We just have our opinions and guesses.

Everyone of those did play CB. Its how the Bears rate their board, not how pundits rated players.

I hope Rodriguez makes it to us. Hope I didn’t jinx us by saying it out loud.

We might regret missing DT Kayden McDonald. Might not be a DA fit but he will be a baller for Houston.

Maybe it's a good sign. The majority of posters on the forum wanted the Bears' GM to select a specific player before the draft. How often does it happen? Usually, instead of the player we all agreed on, the player selected is someone we never considered. I've been with this forum since DaWebmaster, Jeff Timms, started it up. Caleb Williams and Brian Urlacher are the only 2 I can think of besides Dillon T (who very few of us expected to be available).

I'm still surprised he made it to us...

They will all look better with a pass rush, and without one, every player is eventually exposed in coverage. I love the pick, now we need to go DL.

Yet so many of us wanted Thieneman. Coincidence? I think not.

IMO we've got enough interchangeable parts - time to get a guy you think can compete for #2 CB (if possible).

I like his is a blue player , can be more than just a starter. A star

Yes, all the fans and pundits can have different opinions that do not match what the bears pick. I think one of those fall, but maybe move 4 or 5 picks up that doesnt cost to much.

Yes , players with versatile with fit the scheme. Jason Kilgore, Kinoite Scott and Treydan Stukes could play CB, SS, FS, and NB. I would not be surprised if we picked one of them instead of a straight CB.

Cam Lewis has a lot of versatility as well. Can really mix up deep v. in the box v. slot coverage and all those guys can blitz effectively.

Trade up if necessary to get whoever is left in the middle of the round from Parker/Jacas/Moore/Young with your two 2s trying to get a 3 back. Use your two 3s on a C and maybe a CB, unless there's a DT or WR you love. We're going to learn a lot about the types of players the Bears want today.

I like the PFF draft Scott is totally flexible, NB, CB, SS or FS. sign me up.

I did mocks from 3 different sites to see what may be available. The result makes me think we may trade up...

I like this pick for a few reasons, current depth being the obvious. The fact that we got much faster, in an already good secondary, is huge. Remembering Packer receivers running free is still a nightmare. That shouldn't be the case anymore. Lastly, the kid grew up in the county next to me...💪

Edge - Young*, Howell*, Parker*, Jacas, Thomas DT - McDonald*, Miller, Hunter LB - Allen*, Rodriguez, Hill Jr CB - McCoy*, Terrell*, Hood*, Ponds, Cisse IOL - Bisontis, Pregnon A lot of impact guys still left on the board. The Bears should be able to get 1, if not 2 of the guys listed, and most are top 55 rated players. The guys with asterisks had 1st round or early 2nd round projections.

Bryant, Thieneman, and Gordon really make the secondary super versatile. This was a weaker draft overall, but Thieneman was one of the few elite picks even though it was at Safety.

With several good players still at DT and DE, we should get two good players in the second round. I think its possible we trade back with one of those picks.

Poles said there were two players on their board available, I wonder who the other one was? McCoy/CB, McDonald/DT, Miller/DT, Woods/DT, Lomu/RT. Young/DE, Parker/DE ?

Another thing to note , they redid contracts for Noah Jackson and Cole Kmet to get 10.25 mil for the rookie pool.

The one position we needed a starter and TADA we have Dillion. It worked out as BPA and a need. There were still a couple of DTs McDonald and Woods . Parker and Faulk on the board. Loma was there if they wanted a LT. They deemed this as the most important position to fill and I agree. I thought if Messidor was there he would have been the pick but being gone, they took the safety. The chances of both being there were slim and that's why I predict a trade back but very happy with this pick. DA is getting scheme fit players and think the rest of the picks will be too. I cant wait to see this defense with the speed we have added. Dillion 4.35, Coby Bryant 4.47, Devin Bush 4.43, DeMarco Jackson 4.55. Even though the DTs are unknown names everyone of them have better speed. Gallimore 4.79, 4.87, Lynch 5.01

In fairness if McDonald is there they take him - let him plug the run for years. Should have some good options to add 2 more good football players in round 2 and hopefully another one in round 3.
