No way they go into the season with just 2 TE on the roster. Peace

Young is probably done in the NFL. Peace

The Kansas Comet. I can't wait until the Bears open their own HOF. Peace

I'm to the point where I say you make a final offer and tell him take or leave it. If he says no then trade him and move on. He's a very good LB (not a great one) and is not worth the headache. Another note - You can see Eberflus is to the point where he doesn't want to deal with this anymore. I actually feel bad he's the middle man on this. Poles needs to tell the media that all questions about Roquan will be addressed by him until the contract situation is resolved. Eberflus needs to concentrate on the players he has available. Peace

He said it was a take it or leave it offer. We actually have no idea what has been said or exchanged. The major point is he shouldn't be negotiating. He should have an agent. You also note he has no leverage here. That is the most important point. They'll eventually reach an agreement. Peace

How do you know he's gone? I would say it's probably 75%+ he stays. This is a negotiating tactic - nothing more. That being said, he really needs an agent. You can't take this personal - it's business. Peace

This sucks but it's early enough where he can be back by the regular season and it gives Kramer a chance to get a ton of reps. Peace

This 100%. Peace

Fxxk!!! This crap pisses me off to no end. Hopefully, the holdout doesn't last too long. Peace

Wishing him the best in his life going forward. Peace

Quinn needs to show up to camp to help make this happen. Peace

Pix - It's been a while my friend. Hope you are doing well. I see Gary every few months as he lives about 10 miles from me. He goes with me to a game every year. Take care of yourself. Peace

It was obvious that George had a high amount of respect for Soup so I love this move because it shows they are letting Poles do his job. Peace

Flus has said having former players around is a priority for him. I'm glad to see a change in direction. Peace

The first paragraph summarizes the article: This draft ended any confusion over the Bears’ objectives under new GM Ryan Poles and new head coach Matt Eberflus. They are embarking on a long-term rebuild, not scrambling to prop up the quarterback they inherited, Justin Fields, for the best possible short-term results.

I'd be happy with 30-40 receptions, 400+ yards receiving and 4+ touchdowns. Peace

I'm good with losing the 6th round pick for this. Poles showed he knows how to replace it. Peace

I'm not sure they offer him a deal. He's a good player and a solid back but he doesn't fit his offense. Peace

I'm good with 6 wins or less this year. I'm looking for a top-10 pick in 2023. That is where we will start trending up. Peace

They need 90s players for camp. I assume most will be gone by the first cut. I also like Sanborn and would love to see him make the final 53. Peace

Finally. Wish we could have got at least a 2023 7th for him but It was not our fate. Peace

Best available O-lineman should be the pick at 148 or 150. Peace

Poles was left a shit show to clean up. He said last night that you can't fix this overnight. It is going to take time. We need to give him that. Peace

Good question. Just a hypothetical trade. Also, noticed I missed pick 148 so I will say 148 Melton and 150 Mike Rose. Peace

My mock draft (based on player rankings in The Beast from Dane Brugler) - Trade 39 to KC for 50 and 62 - Pick 48 - Perrion Winfrey (DT, Oklahoma) or Tyler Smith (OT, Tulsa) - Pick 50 - Kyler Gordon (CB, Washington) or Christian Watson (WR, NDSU) - Pick 62 - Jalen Tolbert (WR, South Alabama) or Cam Taylor-Britt (CB, Nebraska) - Pick 71 - Cole Strange (OC/G, Tennessee Chattanooga) or Tyler Parham (OC/G, Memphis) - Pick 150 - Bo Melton (WR, Rutgers) or Mike Rose (LB, Iowa State) - Pick 186 - Smoke Monday (S, Auburn) or Jack Sanborn (LB, Wisconsin) - Trade Nick Foles to Jacksonville for pick 222 (Foles has a $4 million salary for this year - may have to eat part of it) - Pick 222 - Vederian Love (OT, Illinois) Peace
