Bearstalk

Is there any way for us to have a draft that everyone would like? First premise: We'd all like a trade-down if possible. Solution: Mariota falls, Chip Kelly trades up. Eagles send: 1.20, 2.52, 2016 2nd rd pick Bears sent: 1.7 Now the Bears have a mid/late 1st rounder, two 2nd round picks, and a 2016 2nd. In my last mock I proposed the following: 2015 MOCK DRAFT 1.0 1.20- Landon Collins, S, Alabama 2.39- Eddie Goldman, NT, FSU 2.52- Bernardrick McKinney, ILB, MSU 3-Hronis Grassu, C, Oregon 4-Sean Mannion, QB, Oregon St. 5-Shaquille Mason, OG, GT 6-Jamison Crowder, WR, Duke Problem 1-AZ54 doesn't like McKinney, and woul…

Are the Bears who we thought they were? We should have a pretty good indication on what type of team we are after Sunday. If we win, then we are definitely pointing in the right direction; if we lose, we are almost destined for an 0-3 start and will have a tough hole to get out of. Week 1 Top PFF Performers: ILB Shea McClellin (+2.5) LT Jermon Bushrod (+2.3) WR Alshon Jeffery (+2.1) TE Martellus Bennett (+1.9) FS Adrian Amos (+0.9)

He got a little fired up when someone suggested the Bears bring another RB. Maybe this will light a fire under his arse. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...earnt01.article Peace

Listened to Thayer on the SCORE with Double Z earlier tonight and he said Orton has progressed enough to be given the starting job. He also seem to say 5 yrs is enough time on Rex and the Bears need to move on - Rex has too many questions to answer. Peace

I would say we still need to draft a DT, CB, OT, with the next two picks. Hope they can figure how to do that.

The Bears should have traded Hester when they had the chance. Earlier this season when Hester was holding out for money I (and I think a few others) said that he is not going to be worth anymore than he was then. I said he was one injury away from losing his step and was only going to get slower regardless. That and all the other teams are figureing out how to stop him. First he tried to make something out of nothing (see the Colts game and a tackle on the 3) then this injury. A "soft tissue" injury to the ribs that could keep him out for up to two weeks? I mean come on!!! This was just a result of the heat and cramping. There is a troubling trend developing. …

Orton- 21-30, 219 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT Forte- 32 rushes, 162 yards, 2 TD, 4 catches, 44 yards Booker- 3 catches, 43 yards Davis- 2 catches, 11 yards Hester- 3 catches, 55 yards, 1 punt return for a TD Clark- 4 catches, 37 yards, 1 TD Olsen- 4 catches, 34 yards Gould- 2/2 on FG Defense- 5 sacks, gives up 20 points, 2 INTs, 2 FFs Bears 34-20

Right now there are eight teams that are guaranteed to be ahead of the Bears in the draft: Seattle, St. Louis, Detroit, KC, Oakland, Houston, Cincinnati, and Cleveland There are five other teams that could arguably be ahead or behind the Bears: SF, GB, SD, Jax, Buffalo So, that means the Bears will draft between 9 and 14. Players who are probably going to be off the board: Stafford - QB Brian Orakpo - DE Michael Oher - OT Andre Smith - OT Taylor Mays -S Eugene Monroe - OT Ray Maualuga - LB Michael Crabtree - WR (if he comes out) Terrence Cody - DT (if he comes out) Chris Wells - RB (someone is gonna do it) Scenario #1 (realisti…

Silvy from ESPN 1000, who is decently well connected with the Bears, reported today that Phil Emery loves Will Muschamp, current Florida HC and former Texas DC, and that he'd be shocked if he wasn't interviewed for the HC job.

Post any FF talk, trade help, who to start, trashtalk and all that jazz in here.

The no-call pass interference in the New England/Carolina game could end up costing us a playoff spot. The most-watched sport in the US should have full-time referees who know what they are doing and can actually keep up with the athletes on the field. Peace

I heard they signed him for one year, at MLB

Obviously for me the rookies starting in the O Line will be my #1 concern. Want to see Cutler succeed. Hopefully the WR's will all play. No excuses! This offense needs to look professional tonight. We'll get a good idea of who the coaches are likely to cut at various positions. Is Peppers playing? If so I sure hope we get more pass rush than last week. Even if he isn't, there's no excuse for that. Starters will play a quarter or so if history is any indication. Has Nerdman said otherwise? Would it be so bad to see Forte hit an actual hole the line opened for him? And, of course, let's stay healthy!

From today's press conference it's clear Eberflus was not happy with the pass coverage last week (nobody was). Some of that is players not executing as per assignments or game plan. Some is the lack of pass rush. He was pretty clear today that we have to do a better job of mixing it up to get pressure. I'm expecting Sanborn and Morrow to play better this week. I just watched the Miami game again focusing on a few plays and during the course of the game you could see the run reads and filling the gaps improve. For his part Sanborn asked Morrow what to do on seemingly every play, which is ok, they are standing next to each other but doesn't bode well for kno…

So it goes 1 Young QB. CAR 2. Stroud QB Hou 3 Anderson Edge trade Hou 4. Richardson QB Ind 5 Witherspoon CB Sea 6. Paris Johnson Jr LT trade Arizona

OK, the combine is over, and some pro days have occurred. Who are you picking, and why, as the next QB for the Chicago Bears?

http://www.nesn.com/2011/01/sources-larry-...ight-price.html Hellllooo? Don't know what they would be asking. I know the Lions got a 1st and 3rd out of Roy Williams so I think the bidding would start there. How about a 1st and Johnny Knox? This would be a dream come true if Larry Fitzgerald fell into our laps. Best WR in the game today.
