@vxmcclure23: Bears had offered a two-year contract to Bell with about half mil guaranteed. Could still negotiate that deal or be set with $1.26 million. @vxmcclure23: $1.26 million tender for Bell. @vxmcclure23: Bears tender restricted free-agent RB Kahlil Bell.

1. Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford ---Finally, a franchise LT for Cutler. 2. Chandler Jones, DE, Syracuse ---Jones looks like, with a few pounds added, a future 8-9 sack NFL player. 3. Josh Norman, CB, Coastal Carolina ---Norman's stock really rose recently, and the Bears need a young CB. 4. TY Hilton, WR, Florida International ---Hilton had a huge pro day, running in the 4.3's. If they're interested in Kendall Wright, a smaller WR, they should look at Hilton as well. 5. Senio Kelemete, OG, Washington ---Emery said OL will be stressed in the draft, and Kelemete is a good player. 6. Aaron Henry, S, Wisconsin ---Depth safety in case, or when, Wright f**…

Right now it's just me. Hopefully it will pick up more business as we get closer to #19.

Lovin' hearing a guy from this team talk the way he does.

Roquan Smith (concern about is mental state, potential to be great or wash out) James Daniels (serviceable NFL player) Anthony Miller (can't run correct routes) Joel Iyiegbuniwe (no impact) Bilal Nichols (injured, but good player) Kylie Fitts (no impact) Javon Wims (not allowed to play, but looks promising) Mitchell Trubisky (?) Adam Shaheen (injury prone, potential to be serviceable) Eddie Jackson (home run) Tarik Cohen (above average in 2017/2018) Jordan Morgan (no impact) Leonard Floyd (serviceable NFL player) Cody Whitehair (serviceable NFL player) Jonathan Bullard (washout) Nick Kwiatkoski (serviceable NFL backup) Deon Bush (special teams/backup) Dei…

As a 70 year old fart not that big of a thing. But for all the game playing, WWF loving, 20-30 somethings in pro sports it seems like a great thing to rev up the troops.

Julian Edelman was a solid NFL player but, does he deserve a NFL documentary before Hester?

Similar to previous years, a team could draft pretty much all Alabama players and it would be good draft. Trade Back 1.XX - Brian Branch, S 2.22 - Jaymyr Gibbs, RB 2.XX - Tyler Steen, OT 2.30 - Eli Ricks, CB 3.1 - Henry To'oTo'o, LB 4.1 - Byron Young, DL 5.1 - Emil Ekiyor Jr., G 5.XX - Cameron Latu, TE I can't say I'd be entirely upset by that. Normally, the position sequence isn't my favorite, but grabbing all Bama players would be awesome.

2/$6 million for Josh Blackwell as key ST contributor and CB depth Smythe is your Gerald Everett replacement with better blocking. He was with Miami when Ben Johnson was there, so looks like another one of “his guys”.

JK bschmaranz. Seriously though, I'd appreciate it if you would refrain from making similar predictions in the future. This thread is filled with prophecy and ignorance. It's amazing to look back at what has been said, and too easy for some to flip-flop when they realize they have been wrong. In this case, however, nobody is as right as bschmaranz.

With the owners meetings completed and just a few weeks before the draft any remaining free agents are getting nervous to find roster spots. This is where Pace often does a lot of work to fill out the roster. I think he's done with big contracts except for any extensions he wants to do with our current players (reportedly Goldman, maybe Amos). We have almost $28mil in cap space and have yet to cut Freeman which opens up another $3.5mil. That leaves room to sign a "name" player on a decent low risk deal. About the only "name" player I'm interested in is Jonathan Hankins because I think if his asking price drops low enough he can add some starter level depth while le…

Wow, first off, I love Brandon Staley. Did anyone else see the Chargers Raiders game? If they tied, both would make the playoffs due to IND's loss. Well LAC scored a last-second TD and forced overtime (they didn't go for 2). Then in OT they swapped FGs and with the game tied and the Raiders at the LAC39 with 38 seconds left (and a running clock), Staley called a timeout. It was clear to everyone in the world that the Raiders were content to run out the clock and take a tie. It would've been a 56 yard FG from there and the risk of a block or something bad happening was too high. They even said this after the game. They were actually going to take a knee! So…

Was that the last we'll see of Shaheen? Would anyone even remember his last snap as a Bear?

He's just been promited to the 53 with the Seahawks today per KFFL.... Just thought some here might want to know that...

Understand the pick but felt that was a little early. Feels like they could've gotten him at the next 2nd rounder.
