ASHKUM BEAR

I don't like SS either, but it is the website and best available compared to needs I liked. That is why I traded down, as much as I didn't want to again so it was more realistic.

This is from Greg Gabriel's Twitter. If this is true, it shows how broken the Bears are and if Loggains believes this, he needs to find the nearest mental hospital. Twitter: Greg Gabriel "Was told weeks ago that Loggains believed and was telling people that he was going to be Bears HC in ‘18. What a dreamer, couldn’t be HC of a HS JV team"

Your score is: 19201 (GRADE: B+) Your Picks: ***Moved down 2 spots for a 2nd, why not.*** Round 1 Pick 10 (WASH): Connor Williams, OT, Texas (A+) My first thought is to go with Orlando Brown, but realistically he will be a RT in the NFL. If we have a shot at a lock down LT, I prefer to go that route. Leno is not terrible, but the stronger the oline the easier it is for Trubisky/Howard/Cohen. To be honest, seeing another "Williams OT" again on a Bears draft board makes me cringe a little. Round 2 Pick 10 (WASH): Ronnie Harrison, SS, Alabama (A-) Not technically a need, but he was by far the BPA. Amos is actually performing well, this pick will help elevate him more or insurance. ***Didn't see what I wanted at 8, so traded down to 19 and gained a 3rd.*** Round 2 Pick 19 (DET): Dorance Armstrong Jr., DE/OLB, Kansas (B+) With Floyd on one side and another flashy edge rusher on the other, the Bears can rattle QB's into INT's or sacks. I don't think Armstrong will last this late. He will be raw, but his speed is unteachable. Round 3 Pick 19 (DET): Anthony Miller, WR, Memphis (A+) This guy has hands, runs good routes, and can run after the catch. Looking for our own Antonio Brown and Miller is my version this draft. Round 4 Pick 8: Quenton Meeks, CB, Stanford (A+) Good size and family traits, son of NFL coach Ron Meeks. Seems like a tough defender Chicago would like that can also take away the ball. Round 4 Pick 13: Parris Campbell, WR, Ohio State (A+) Lack of QB hurt his production, but a quick wideout that can stretch the field, return kicks. He does have trouble getting separation, but with proper coaching, he can improve on that. Round 5 Pick 8: Tyrell Crosby, OT/G, Oregon (A) I love digging into the Oregon Ducks for linemen anymore. Crosby plays LT at Oregon, but will be a better fit inside at G or RT. The Right side could potentially be C-Grasu, RG-Long, RT-Crosby? With Williams LT and Whitehair LG Round 6 Pick 8: Porter Gustin, OLB, Southern California (A-) Strong enough to set the edge in run defense and decent speed to rush the pass. He will most likely be long gone here, he compares a lot to Clay Matthews, so I'd imagine GB snags him. Round 7 Pick 8: Justin Yoon, K, Notre Dame (A+) Need to find a long term solution at K.

I glanced at New England, they are typically higher, but I didn't look at who the players were. I think it also makes a difference getting a QB in place along with a system.

This team has been handcuffed with injuries for way too long. Going back to our first change coaching switch it has continued to get worse. 2013 Lance Briggs - 7 games Out, Nate Collins 10-IR, Blake Costanzo 5 out, 1 IR, Kelvin Hayden 16 IR, Henry Melton 13 IR, Charles Tillman 7 IR, DJ Williams 10 IR, Joe Anderson 8 IR. 2014 Lance Briggs - 4 IR, Roberto Garza - 1 Out, Robbie Gould 1 Out, Lamarr Houston 1 Out 8 IR, Brandon Marshall 3 IR, Shea McClellin 3 Out, Zach Miller 16 IR, Darryl Sharpton 1 Out 7 IR, Charles Tillman 14 IR, DJ Williams 3 IR, Marquess Wilson 10 IR, Willie Young 1 IR. 2015 Sam Acho 1 Out, Martellus Bennett 1 Out, 4 IR, Jon Bostic 1 Out, Jermon Bushrod 2 Out, Kadeem Carey 1 Out, Ego Ferguson 1 D 10 Out, Matt Forte 1 Out, Eddie Goldman 1 IR, Alshon Jeffrey 1 Out 2 IR, Will Montgomery 12 IR, Ryan Mundy 16 IR, Senorise Perry 16 IR, Tracy Porter 2 Out, Jaquizz Rodgers 11 IR, Antrl Rolle 2 D, 7 IR, Eddie Royal 1 D 4 Out, Cornelius Washington 15 IR, Kevin White 16 IR. 2016 Mike Adams 4 IR, Lamin Barrow 16 IR, Nick Becton 16 IR, Brandon Boykin 16 IR, Kadeem Carey 2 D, Jay Cutler 5 D 6 IR, Ego Ferguson 16 IR, Leonard Floyd 1 D 1 Out, Kyle Fuller 16 IR, Eddie Goldman 6 D 3 IR, Hronis Grasu 16 IR, Deiondre Hall 2 D 4 Out, Lamarr Houston 14 IR, Brian Hoyer 9 Out, Eric Kush 1 Out, Jeremy Langford 4 D, Kyle Long 9 IR, Danny Mason 16 IR, Pernell McPhee 6 IR, Zach Miller 6 IR, MyCole Pruitt 1 Out, Roy Roberton-Harris 16 IR, Eddie Royal 1 D, 1 Out, 5 IR, Connor Shaw 16 IR, Josh Sitton 2 D, Will Sutton 7 IR, Danny Trevathon 1 D 1 Out 5 IR, Mitch Unrein 1 D, Kevin White 12 IR, Marquess Wilson 11 IR. 2017 Adrian Amos 2 D, Prince Amukamara 1 D, Josh Bellamy 1 D, Deon Bush 1 Out, Kadeem Carey 16 IR, Benny Cunningham 1 D, Quinton Demps 10 IR, Leonard Floyd 3 IR, Jerrell Freeman 15 IR, Eddie Goldman 1 D, Deiondre Hall 10 IR, Lamarr Houston 7 IR, Eric Kush 13 IR, Nick Kwiatkoski 1 O, 2 D, Kyle Long 1 IR, Sherrick McManis 2 D, Pernell McPhee 1 D, Cameron Merredith 13 IR, Zach Miller 5 IR, Ruben Randle 13 IR, Roy Robert-Harris 2 D, Cairo Santos 1 IR, Patrick Scales 16 IR, Josh Sims 1 D, John Timo 2 D 1 Out, Danny Trevathan 1 D, Mitch Unrein 1 IR, Markus Wheaton 1 D 2 Out, Kevin White 12 IR, Willie Young 12 IR.

I have seen a couple and then it seems like a bunch that were called back too. I do not understand the penalties on big plays all the time. It is happening to Cohen too. I know these guys take more time with stop and go, constantly changing direction, but there has to be some type of discipline the blockers learn to minimize those flags.

One part of me wants OT, one part wants OLB, and the last part a WR. I don't see a WR worthy of a top 10 spot, so I hope to trade down if that is our target. My dream would be Buffalo trading there two firsts for our one and drafting McGlinchey OT and Ridley WR. Round 2 get the OLB and possibly draft another next round to increase the odds. Add a top tier WR free agent and I think this team could compete.

When I found out he was wearing #23, I became an instant fan. He represented it well and deserves to be honored. ST is part of the game and should be recognized when records are set.

I think we have a chance for one more win. A trade down would be best for this team, but it is looking dim. We are close to being decent, gonna need health, luck, and another good draft class.

Get one of the top WRs in FA, Adams or Landry. Adams can help two ways like you said. Then draft the best OT and OLB. This team can be good with a few tweaks and of course good coaching.

I am all for keeping Wright. We will need a slot and him and Tru are making chemistry.

How many big plays do we lose when Cohen touches the ball ,good God he would be all pro without those flags.

The Robbie Gould Curse. Like Walker Hayes new song, You Broke Up with Me.... "No girl, can't touch my good as gould".

I love that we are finding RBs in the 4th and 5th rounds. No one has powers to see how a RB will turn out after a year or two, if that was the case Benson was supposed to put up Ricky Williams type numbers. Langford had a lot of the same traits as Forte, he sure looked the role early on, but I think the brass wanted to get away from that. By taking shots in the draft, we have found a guy this year every defense keys in on in Cohen and a top 5 RB in Howard. I would not be surprised if the Bears draft another RB this year or next in the 4th-7th rd to replace Cunningham, RBs have a short career life.

Now, if they release Sims, any of these above free agents are gonna sign to a similar deal to Sims or for more. If Eifert could stay healthy, he could be a top 5 TE and command 8-10 million. The only other TE that has really produced is Seferian-Jenkins and I think he is real close to being a good producer but is coming up short. I am disappointed with Sims as I am with many of the offense, but would like to see him through TC to see if he can rebound. If not, I am sure we can find a cheaper option in the second wave of free agency.

I don't fault Pace for signing Leno. He is not great, but not bad either. We may not get a shot at drafting a great LT and OLB and WR are just as big of a need as OTs. Many scouts are already saying McGlinchey and Brown don't have the footwork to contain speed rushers, so Pace at least hedged the bet covering that future need with a favorable contract for the Bears. I think Brown would have a better chance because of his size/length and strength alone. They say one of the better prospects is Mitch Hyatt and he is very similar to Leno. I would rather try McGlinchey or Brown, worst case is they make a great RT. I am starting to think Long is damaged goods. We re-signed him while he was injured as a good faith type of deal. He needed multiple surgeries last season but his body didn't respond well and they decided to put off the shoulder surgery, which may have caused him to break down by having to compensate for that. Hopefully he gets everything fixed up this off season and returns to the old Kyle.

I would love the Buffalo trade. Could get McGlinchey OT, Key OLB, or Ridley WR with those two firsts. Since this is about upgrading the offense, I am taking Ridley WR along with McGlinchey OT. Round 2 we can get the OLB (Dorance Armstrong Kan) and another WR (Anthony Miller Memphis)or OT (Braden Smith Auburn). Go oline... Free agency, I like Jarvis Landry as the go to guy and to be odd, give me Ryan Grant Wash. Re-sign Meredith and Inman 2018 roster: Landry, Meredith, Inman, White, Ridley, Grant. Practice squad:Tanner Gentry and Austin Proehl (udfa-UNC)

Gould said he was glad he was let go because he needed the motivation to get better. So if we kept him, would he have been able to find that motivation on his own? The 4 million reasons were not enough, it took getting dumped for him to get after it. Sometimes that is what it takes and in time maybe he will find his way back to the Bears.

If they go off money wise, Glennons signing will erase Jeffreys loss. Hopefully they look into the performance and throw us a bone.

I am good taking two OTs. If we are at 6 and Orlando Brown is there, you have to take him. He reminds me of Dallas LT Tyron Smith. He would anchor that side for 10 plus years. I can see them taking Bradley Chubb OLB also, but building around Trubisky should be the focus. If we don't move down rd 1, then we should consider doing so round 2 to try get back the lost 3rd.

Not sure about him either. If I knew the Saints offense was his and not Paytons I could buy it. Maybe Andy Reid gets fired the way KC has fallen apart, but he would be another retread. Otherwise, the hot candidate is Frank Reich.

About our only chance for getting return was to apply the franchise tag on him for a 2nd time.

Just as the announcers point out Taylor, he makes a huge 3rd down play. Who is Garappolo throwing to? A bunch of no names and unlike the Bears they can get it done.

Not seeing the same defense. I assume Hicks is still playing on one leg because they are not getting much push in the pocket. Jimmy G has all the time in the world to pick us apart. Would like to see a blitz or two.

I was waiting on that to happen. Great to see him get some pay dirt.
