One of these days, and I'm sure it will be completely by accident, you are going to actually post something with content. It will be very frightening, but please try to keep a hold of yourself. We NEED your inanities and unsubstantiated nonsense. Like this, when the clear implication of everything I've said is that I don't know much. Classic 88...

You're DONE! Until you add to your answer. You then stress "all", when my word was "most". And you didn't "just" talk about the Bears, you mentioned the Patriots and Steelers as the standards that would allow someone to claim the fo knows what it's doing. I don't care about your beliefs, nor how honestly you hold them. It doesn't make them any less ridiculous.

You are a cliche. Congratulations. And your "smarts" apparently don't extend to the meaning of the word "rebuttal". It was more like a "challenge". Like, you know, do what you say can easily be done but somehow never is. Don't worry, you're not the first blowhard to refuse to back up point one. You're in...company.

So we should just hope even though he has EXACTLY THE SAME disadvantages as Beekman? We should draft Schuening, not because we have any reasoning that says he could succeed in the Bears system, but because he's highly ranked and we can hope basically anything we want? A number next to his name and imagination make him a good pick? Christ...

Or you could read the rest of what you wrote, which included this: It's all about reading comprehension, indeed. You want to prove that you're more capable than the Bears front office, then put in the work and prove it. Otherwise, shut the freak up. But there's a reason fans who say shit like that are one of the most laughable cliches on the internet. But, hey, they do use bold AND underline. Together! If that doesn't signal extreme intelligence, I don't know what does. It must be true!

Why aren't we crazy about Beekman, then? Because, although he's a consistent guy inline, he may not be athletic or fast enough to pull or operate in the second level. So now the clear choice is a guy who's...basically the same. Alright then.

You're the one claiming that most people on a message board are better than any front office that doesn't accomplish what the Patriots and Steelers have accomplished, and I'm the one that has to "show everyone"? Your bluster is just freakin sad. But still so funny. And so: :lolhitting

Um, no. You don't write off just any amount of talent because you don't have X hours of film. If you think he's that good, you take him. If he played more games, you probably don't get a chance to take him there. And I thought Nicks could be good, but I don't understand this Schuening craze at all. Personally, I would've hated that pick. And for all Nicks's potential, you gotta admit that he's a HUGE character concern. It takes quite a bit to get kicked out of your own team's pro day by your own coach.

WOW.

For the same reason you make the Harrison pick -- upside. Bowman has a higher ceiling than any sure thing left on the board.

Why is Bowman so hard to understand? We want 5 cb, we have 5, but 1 may not be around much longer (RMJ is making a lot of money for a dimeback, and I'd rather see McBride at the nickel after last year.) So we pick up a guy who is very injury-prone, but has the physical ability to be a starter a couple years down the road, possibly a star. I love the pick.

They know more than EVERY front office. Every team in the NFL believes these guys to be, in all likelihood, worthless scrubs. But now I find out that every one of them is an absolutely indispensable future NFL qb, that we're just giving away for free. Rats!

Anyone we drafted late would have a 99% chance of having a career totally worthless to this team. That's why they lasted so long, despite playing the most important position on a team -- NOONE believes in them. Whoever we pick up as our 3rd qb will have about the same odds. It's really not a loss.

We traded down twice in the 4th. The first, we gained a 7th rounder. The second, we moved from our 6th round pick up to our later pick in the 5th.

It had nothing to do with the thing about his eye. It's about multiple threads suddenly becoming boiling pits of rage because the Bears took a backup te at the bottom of the 5th round. Notice, I said "Everyone", not "You".

I wouldn't really call RMJ "good", but I would call his salary "high", so I'm thinking we might not have to call him a "Bear" much longer.

He's still there, plus Woodson, Brennan, & Johnson.

Why would they extend somebody they're trying to push out? Everyone's flipping out because we took a te who'll be buried on the depth chart rather than a qb/ol who'll be buried on the depth chart. I'd rather have 3 good te than 2 good te and a crappy qb.

No, that was a different Josh Johnson, a lb.

Damn it! There goes Nicks.

Ainge is gone.

5, iirc. We gained one in the first trade-down.

Noone in the fifth round is guaranteed to be an upgrade at any of those positions.

Uh...they just gave him an extension...

No, Schuening and Nicks are both available.
