Poles stated , his first task is to fix the oline. Signed for this year are Whitehair, Jenkins, Borom, Ty Wheatly, Dieter Eiselen , and Willie Wright. Whitehair. had an off year, but over the last 3 years has been our best lineman. Plus a big contract that doesn't allow the team to get out of it for one more year. Pencil him in at LG Jenkins will be playing LT or at RT depending on who we bring in . Borom will be RT or RG depending on who they bring in. FAgency could bring in LTs : Orlando Brown, Cam Robinson are under 27 and will be getting big contracts. Old dudes: Teven Armsted, Duane Brown Nate Solder, Riley Reiff, and Jason Peters. …

I was watching Total Access Live on NFL Network yesterday and they said the Bengals were between Stacy Andrews and TJH to use their one franchise tag. It turns out Andrews blew out his knee last week or something, and so it seemed like it was obvious to give it to Houshmandzadeh. Well, Adam Schefter says the Bengals WILL NOT use it on Houshmandzadeh but maybe Chad. This means TJ will be able to test the market. Sounds like good news for us. Thoughts?

TO wants to make a comeback and guess who he wants to play for? TAADAA Mark Trestman. Somebody give him a gun.

Jared Goff is in a much worse place than Trubisky. He looks to be rattled and a shell of who he was last year. Since the Superbowl he has been a turnover machine and highly ineffective. My expectation is that Pagano dial up the pressure to the point of taxing our secondary. If Goff succeeds, it will have to be via big play. I honestly don't care if we get in a couple of excessive hits along the way. If we rattle Goff early, we have a chance. It's simply what teams have been doing to Trubisky. Let the least rattled win!

Wow, an old injury. Foles time? A 4th rounder? Lets go!

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/nfl-dra...rs-bet-on-speed Right now I guess from this mock draft we sit in the 8th spot. Let's hope we only move up the draft order!!!!!

With Balt drafting Stanley, I can see Eugene Monroe being traded or cut. He would definitly be an upgrade as the LT and is only 29, would have 3 to 4 years left at a high level. With Hargraeves going to TB and then grabbing Grimes in FA I can see them cutting loose of Alterraun Verner/CB. He played well before he got to TB and he is 27.

So much for Sedrick Ellis improving the DT depth. Today, he retired.

Explained it very well and really from a perspective on things I didn't or wouldn't think about. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,7332934.story

The Giants are in complete rebuild mode and I predict OBJ will not be a part of it. Tick tock, GO!

Video Its really cool the breakdown he has, I enjoyed it.

There is always something missing from the glass chicago. I choose to trust it will be filled with something and it might be enough to be satisfied without being full. I choose to look at what we have. -Hester is fast and capable of magnificent things. He scares opponents. Jay can get him the ball... -Olsen may be the biggest secret weapon we have and I am interested to see him show up. -Forte, able to do it all and makes it look good. I think he can keep doin it. -Pace, Williams, Kreutz, and a RT that has done it before. -Marinelli, known to be "the best" D Line coach there is. -Pro bowl players on Defense, where infusion of youth…

I would prefer Freeman in the 4th. Really need to secure Forte's backup. Once thing we can all agree on http://www.drafttek.com/2014-NFL-Mock-Draft-Round4.asp

In the last couple of weeks there has been a buzz that Notre Dame safety Harrison Smith is rising up draft boards and could sneak into the first round.I say buyer beware. Since the Irish are on national TV just about every week he was not a name that I focused on when they played and he didn't do much to make me notice.This is a bad safety class IMO and I would try to selecta CB that would project to safety since this scheme needs a guy to cover deep with ball skills.Barron for sure is the best player at the position but there has been big debate for all others as to who would be the next off the board. Smith has started to emerge as the next but, I would wait and try to …

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...84-567390934bab Well now we know who the Bears liked and kept on the p squad. QB Johnson is a wonder,

With Sunday approaching quickly, I'm curious as to type of offense and defense we will see heading into Game 1 against the Bengals. What I am expecting is to see the Bears come out in a wide variety of offensive formations to keep the defense on their heels. I expect to see a good chunk (maybe more-so later in the year) of the pistol, not in terms of the QB run, but in terms of play action passing. Martellus Bennett should be a huge factor if they choose to go that route, because the middle of the field will be wide open. I think we know by now that Matt Forte will become the focal point of the offense. I expect him to see a lot of touches as a runner and as a pass c…

Always interested to see where others would have gone with the Bears picks. I would not have traded up for Montgomery and I assume he would have been gone when I picked at 87, so I would have gone this way: 3) Julian Love, CB, Notre Dame - Can work in the slot like eventual actual selection Duke Sweeney but big enough to develop as an outside corner as well. 4) Travyveon Williams, RB, Texas A&M - This is who I took in my pre-draft mock draft and although I think he didn't actually go until the 6th I'd have taken him here. 5) D'Andre Walker, Edge, Florida State - I probably had him as a 3rd round pick or so, so I'd take him here as a developmental pass …

OK. We really suck. Jim Harbaugh was actually available and we didn't persue him. We didn't even try. Wow. This IS a clown show. Whatever you think about Eberflus you can't tell me Harbaugh wouldn't be better. Is this who Kevin Warren wanted when he supposedly argued with Poles? Did Poles not want to give up on his hug friend? This is such a giant error. How many years will we need to wait until we can fire Poles? I'm telling you right now, you may think I'm crazy right now, but you will all eventually wish we had Harbaugh instead of Eberflus. Every one of us will eventually know this no matter what you think now. And we can fire Eberflus, bu…
