Most years I get to watch the entire combine. Either live or recorded. This year I didn't, so I don't have as good of a handle as normally. So... Which guys have risen on your personal charts? Mid round guys who might have moved to bottom first. Nobodies who are now mid round guys. And also the late round sleepers. Who's the guy the Bears should get with a big surprise?

2015 Denver Broncos Free Agents Wes Welker Demaryius Thomas Terrance Knighton Jacob Tamme Will Montgomery Mitch Unrein Rahim Moore Orlando Franklin Nate Irving Quinton Carter Julius Thomas Virgil Green Steven Johnson Aaron Brewer Tony Carter Brandon Marshall Ben Garland We could use a backup TE and all of there TEs are free agents--Virgil Green Brandon Marshall is a no brainer- a stud better than any LB on our roster Rahin Moore he wont command a big salary and is a competent FS We will not be making several big spending free agent signing, so those 3 would add some nice additions to our team with not great expense.

I annually take draft weekend off and this year I'm here again ! I'm going to couch gate on Day 1 ( Ox Tail Stew) Kentucky Bourbon, Miller High Life and rubbing my dogs belly for good luck. The most important thing is checking in with you guys tomorrow! I love this site and you people that post here!

Our desire to get rid of Alex Brown was a suprirse. IMO this is purely money driven. I'm wondering if there's anybody else we're not thrilled with we'd consider dumping to save money. Here's a few that pop to mind: Olin Kreutz--His play has dropped off, he's getting old, and he's making good money. We've talked about Beekman could play. (although we'd need another guard) Devin Hester--He's making one helluva a lot of money to be a mediocre receive & mediocre punt-returner. He's a bad route runner which makes him a liability for Martz. He's been a bad return man for 2 consecutive years. Tommie Harris--He needs to look impressive during TC. The y…

Damn i was getting nervous, feels pretty good to not worry about the CBA. Who will be the first player targeted by the Bears??? Im thinking a DL. I would love a good WR but think it will be a DL. Tell me who you think they will go after first and who you would want them to go after first. Im thinking Cullen Jenkins= only cause there was a bunch of talk about it. I would want them to go after first= WR or OL....let me think about this player for a while and i will get back to you.

I have seen plenty of articles of posts ripping Cutler to shreds, and while I am NOT saying he didn't have a bad game, I also thought the receivers really made him look bad. Yea, there were numerous picks, and even more that could have been, but how often was it due to Cutler and how often due to the receiver. Some examples off the top of my head. Early on, there was a play which looked like an out route to Bennett, who rup upfield, began to cut, but then just stopped and turned around. I think that is called a button hook, right? Anyway, Cutler threw the ball as if Bennett would be running an out, and it basically went into (and out of) the hands of a DB as …

I would personally keep Clark around for 1 more year. McKie should have been gone 2 years ago instead of Lousaka Polite. Peace

Bears players contracts who will expire at the conclusion of the league year include Anthony Adams, Devin Aromashodu, Kahlil Bell, Josh Bullocks, Desmond Clark, Todd Collins, Rashied Davis, Corey Graham, Caleb Hanie, Brian Iwuh, Olin Kreutz, Danieal Manning, Brad Maynard, Nick Roach, Pisa Tinoisamoa, Edwin Williams, Rod Wilson and Garrett Wolfe. I think Todd Collins, Rod Wilson,Devin Aromashodu, Kahlil Bell, Josh Bullocks are gone

Number one for me is obvious: HOU - Monster draft. Clowney is a stud. Su'a Filo is a stud. Both start day 1. CJ Fiedorowicz has a good chance of starting day 1. Same goes for Louis Nix. And for that matter, if this Savage kid has what a lot of people are saying, he might end up starting. If not now, maybe next year. The other 9, in no specific order: ATL - Very good draft. Matthews is a 10-year bookend, and Hageman is a DT with great upside. They needed speed in the defensive backfield, and Southward has it. I also liked Shembo in college. BAL - I don't care about the rest of their draft, but when they started Mosley, Jernigan, Brooks, it made that…

So who do you guys think are the winners and losers in this draft? To me, the Bears did well for themselves, but a couple of other teams did even better. Here are my picks. Best Drafts 1) Chiefs: oh man, they helped themselves a TON this year. Jon Baldwin gives them an explosive threat opposite Dwayne Bowe, and they're going to be able to throw all day in the red zone with those two plus Moeaki. Hudson was one of my favorite players in the draft: he'll be a great center. And their defense looks MILES better than last season. Houston and Tamba Hali are a scary pass-rush duo, plus Jerrell Powe and Allen Bailey add a lot of beef to their d-line rotation. 2)…

Jeffery broke out in his second year, so who's turn is it this year? I think Bostic gets much better in his second year. Your turn

Did anyone pick up on something I missed? I didn't hear a definitive answer on that process. From the presser, I took away this. -They wouldn't rule out hiring a Coach first -When asked who would hire the GM and Coach, George and Teddy committed to final say on the GM but no mention of the coach -Multiple times, they commented on Accorsi being hired through the process of finding a GM and a coach -The specifically mentioned that half a dozen representatives for coaches had contacted them, and they add to the list once it's sorted out I don't know if the Bears are going to relegate to a GM the ability to hire the new coach.

We all keep repeating ourselves on who we would like, he is a list I dont want at 7. Both Qbs keep getting rated high because of the importance of the position, but for me, they are to risky of a pick for a team that needs a star now. Do not want either for our pick at 7. I think the two best edge rushers are going to be Fowler and Beasley, Gregory and Ray will be there at our pick and dont want anything to do with either. I think Shelton and Collins will be good players in the league but both are not a good valve at #7. We need a star in the making at 7 and dont think they fill that bill. I think Trea Wayne will also be to much of a reach at 7, but as…

I've been reading some good things about Al Louis-Jean and got curious about his background. I don't typically follow our UDFA signings as they rarely end up contributing but he appears to be on track to doing just that. (Christian Jones too). I figured I'd post some of the links I came across here in case others were interested. He's 6' 1", 190lbs and ran a 4.52 forty. He has the size and athleticism to play the position but he came out of college at just 20 years old and without making much of an impact on the field. He also had a couple disciplinary issues in his last season. A roadmap for any player who wants to go undrafted. In the last game when Ful…

Based on the number of picks, hopefully we can get 3 of these guys (ranking): Quarterback Tyler Wilson, Arkansas (83) Zac Dysert, Miami, Ohio (103) Ryan Nassib, Syracuse (96) Tyler Bray, Tennessee (90) Landry Jones, Oklahoma (118) Runningback Joseph Randle, Oklahoma St. (86) Andre Ellington, Clemson (91) Marcus Lattimore, South Carolina (58) Johnathan Franklin, UCLA (71) Jawan Jamison, Rutgers (127) Kenjon Barner, Oregon (136) Stepfan Taylor, Stanford (141) Wide Receiver Quinton Patton, Louisiana Tech (60) Da'Rick Rogers, Tennessee Tech (64) Ryan Swope, Texas A&M (117) Kenny Stills, Oklahoma (142) Chris Harper, Kansas S…

Is anyone done caring about 2017? It's going to be hard to have anything to look forward to this year!

This season is now all about figuring out what our young players can do and who fits into the future. Deon Bush has been out there the last couple games and now Braverman is reportedly about to get called up to the 53-man roster. You can certainly expect Hall to get back out there as soon as he's healthy. I wouldn't mind taking Porter off the field because he's no longer hustling. Kwiatkoski looked good on short yardage plays making a couple good stops. Above all, I was curious who caught that touchdown in the first quarter. This guy is an athletic TE, very similar to Miller in ability, and it's worth keeping an eye on him the rest of the season. http…

Probably the smartest guy on team. Us backwoods Pennsylvania boys get it done

Last year we signed Trevathan on the first day and then a few days later we got Massie and Freeman. In this post i am only referring to new players not resigning our own. So on the first day I see us grabbing a up and coming player going into his second contract. Duron Harmon/FS-----------------6'1" 205 He has been a part time player that has been good when playing in the last two years. He has 4 int. I think we had eyes on him having practiced with NE last year in the preseason and fits Paces mold for players he goes after. I also think in the few days following we sign Logan Ryan/CB and jabaal Sheard. I think these two are versatile and asce…
