It is interesting looking at the mock drafts this year as the Bears have no real consensus player pick like in previous years. However, OL is selected in over 50% of the picks. OL, Edge, and RB are the 3 highest position groups. About 56% is OL, 19% Edge, 18% RB, and DT at 7%. Will Campbell - 24.5% Kelvin Banks - 21.5% Ashton Jeanty - 11.3% Others - 42.7% Mykel Williams Omarion Hampton Josh Simmons James Pearce Jr So it seems that at #10, the Bears will more than likely pick an OL, Edge, or RB.

Would love to see the kid play. Probably McClover is going on IR. http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2008/11/wr...to_53.html#more Peace

As much as I want a regime change, I cannot root for GB...I hope we pull off the miracle win and rain on their parade. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=schefter_adam&id=4725645 Upset of the week: Chicago over Green Bay -- The Packers have won four straight, are coming off a Monday night game -- and are due for the letdown that is awaiting them in Chicago.

This was posted on the Bear website. I ask do the opportunities that Rideau and Aromashodu are getting translate into them pushing for jobs? They are both tall 6'3 and 6'4 and would make great targets for Cutler to throw to. As far as speed Brandon is slower than Devin(not Hester)but they seem to be faster than Davis. So they question here is would these two be good fits for a roster than looks like this. Hester, Bennett, Ridaeu,Aromashodu, Knox, Iglesias.IMHO I would take my chances and let Davis go and work with three speed guys Devin H, Devin A and Knox and use Bennett, Ridaeu, Iglesias as the move the chairs type WR'S Who do you think will have the best chance o…

I have been reading Bears reporters tweets and it has been stated that they wish to bring back Idonije, Scott, and Louis. That Carmi is figured to be a flexible player G and T. so what does all that tell us? Does the possiblity exist that McCellan goes to LB if they bring back Idonije? Emery stated he could play other positions? If they bring back Scott, I would say he is our RT? With Louis coming back our RG? I suppose that depends on health. Carmi being flexible, does that mean he goes to LG? It has been stated they are looking at 2 FAgent OTs. So if thats the case, whoever it is, that Webb becomes our swing tackle? If all this is true, wh…

I can't remember this many 1 year deals... Ever since Bennett and Bushrod I'm pretty sure every contract has been one year...

What's everyone doing for opening day? Looking for gameday rituals/ drink of choice for Bears games/ food you make for game time. Ill start: Starting Friday ill prepare about 9 slabs of Baby Back with a rub past down from my old man. Saturday ill smoke them for about 6 to 7 hours.

I finally completed a review of the win over the Vikings with main focus on the line play, both sides. DLine: Solid play inside in this game mainly from Hicks. Either the coaches or McPhee are getting to him (likely both) because he's starting to play more violently. On his sack near the goal line he just clubbed the lineman with his right arm knocking him off balance and then just ran right past him. After some solid but unspectacular first few games his arrow is now pointing up. Unrein is still unable to get any movement in the pass rush. He's still a solid depth-type player but he's not what we need as a starter. OTOH Bullard is making progress in his pas…

1-29: Derrick Sherrod - OT Miss State Can start right away Alt - Wilkerson DE Temple. Probably gone but i think best DL 2-62: Marvin Austin - DL Cant see the guy who hasnt played in a year going before this pick. If we go DL in 1st we get Ijana here 3-93: Greg Little - WR UNC The big guy and #1 we need. I personally love Hankerson but think hell be gone in 2nd Alt - Niles Paul - WR nebraska 4-127: Quan Sturdivant - LB UNc Great football player who "lacks" measurables I didnt want to ignore Cornerback; however i think our secondary is much better than advertised. Its the middle of our Dline that sucks. Wooten and Peppers are cornerstones an…

People are getting really worked up about the draft and the Bears relative inactivity in free agency, but don't forget, June 1st salary cuts are around the corner, and I expect JA to look long and hard at some guys cut at OG, QB, DT, WR, RB, and S. Remember, the season isn't over yet.

Who are you rooting for? I'm all in for the Panthers. Go Chico. Peace

and why?

Dude has now been arrested 3 times in the past week. Dude makes Webb and Marshall(past problems) look like absolute saints way to piss away a promising career

Our OLine was one of our strong groups last year, injuries prevented it from being achieving top credits. What we have: Leno is rated by most accounts as average for a LT. Considering he has a fair contract value it makes him doable going forward. IMO: A upgrade would be nice but I think the Bears live with him a few more years and draft a replacement somewhere in the draft. Sitton is a quality OG top rated by most. He is 31 turning 32 next year and has missed 6 games in the last 2 years. IMO: He will get 8 mil this year which I think could come into play with a player starting the…

Ok it's gotten past the slump buster stage. I thought he was being sarcastic the first time I heard him. But he is serious. It's time to just bench him and hope they keep losing so he can come back in a week or two and think it's not just my fault. Which it's not. His head is just not able to process all the info it's getting at this time, I hope. His mind just doesn't seem to know how to process, not just the play on the field, but also the fallout from it. Over load Over load. Says a retired mailman who can't even begin t understand all the plays in pro football. Not sure if that makes my opinion better or worse. LOL

Noots’ Notes-Game Two: 20-17 Loss at CarolinaBy Michael Nudo The Bears fell to 1-1 after blowing a 17-3 third quarter lead at Carolina on Sunday. The Panthers used an opportunistic defense and the hard running of Jonathan Stewart to get the job done. They let this one slip away (AP Photo/Chuck Burton). OFFENSE QuarterbackKyle Orton’s performance (19-32-149) reflected the overall Bears effort. He got off to an accurate and efficient start hitting on nine of his first thirteen passes in the first half. Orton found Brandon Lloyd for 32 yards while backed up inside his own ten yard-line. He hit Desmond Clark for 15 yards on a 2nd and long. Orton near…

So its almost that time...we have 27 free agents this year with a lot of one year contracts. So in the best interest for the team ...who do we resign and who do we let walk? Quarterback: Jay Cutler Jordan Palmer Josh McCown Running Backs Tony Fiammetta Wide Receivers: Devin Hester Tight Ends: Dante Rosario Offensive Tackles: Jonathan Scott Guards: Matt Slauson Eben Britton Centers: Roberto Garza Defensive Ends: Corey Wootton Defensive Tackles: Nate Collins Henry Melton Jay Radcliff Outside Linebackers James Anderson CHI Inside Linebackers DJ Williams …

Sorry guys. But, I'm tired of Angelo's history of trading down in attempt to stockpile 7th round picks who don't make the team or never make an impact. Can we get a real guy, please? What's wrong with trading UP every now and then to get a legitimate impact player? It takes absolutely no courage to trade down. I heard we'll possibly go as low as 42. Really??? Just in time to ensure all top-tier O-linemen are gone. Ditto for DL and CB. But hey, we may be able to get another 3rd level, 5'8 WR! What a joke!
