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.
-
Makes me sick every time Cohen makes a play there is a damn flag.

www.first-pick.com. It is fun to do to kill 5-10 minutes Your score is: 18371 (GRADE: B+) Your Picks: Round 1 Pick 19 (BUF): Mike McGlinchey, OT, Notre Dame ( 6'-7" 312 He may not have footwork for LT, but can make elite RT Round 1 Pick 20 (BUF): Calvin Ridley, WR, Alabama (A+) 6'-1" 190 Most complete WR, give him an NFL QB and he can be top 5 in league Round 2 Pick 6: Harrison Phillips, DT, Stanford (A) 6'-4" 290 Versatile, plays DE and NT. Another great to add to rotation Round 2 Pick 20 (BUF): Dorance Armstrong Jr., DE/OLB, Kan 6'-4" 241 Lightning fast pass rusher with a little work can be elite. Round 4 Pick 6: Holton Hill, CB, Texas (A+) 6'-1" 195 Shut down corner not afraid to hit. Rd1-2 talent Round 4 Pick 13: Parris Campbell, WR, Ohio State (A+) 6' 208 Deep speed threat/return man. Trouble with separation to many jukes Round 5 Pick 6: Jordan Whitehead, FS, Pittsburgh (B+) 5'-11" 190 Lack of size make him drop. Physical playmaker Round 6 Pick 6: Porter Gustin, OLB, Southern California (A) 6'-4" 255 Uses power and speed to create havoc. Hard to run his side Round 7 Pick 6: Daniel Carlson, K, Auburn Finding stability here is pretty big need. Need a sure thing Wanted to find a QB and another o-line but couldn't pass on a few defensive gems that can elevate that side of the ball. Ridley and McGlinchey is what the offense needs to function right away. Campbell and Cohen would make teams fear kicking and add a formula one aspect to the offense. Armstrong paired with Floyd gives the D legit fast pass rushers and Gustin makes a tough SOB for early downs. Hill can start at CB if needed along with Whitehead at S. Phillips is another great DE who can play the Nose to keep youth along the line and finally allow Unrein to move on. Carlson becomes next Bears great K.

You know they will be keeping Bellamy, that is a given. LoL Who I would like, figure they keep 5 or 6. Jarvis Landry, Meredith/Inman/White, Wright, and 2nd-4th RD draft pick. Meredith and Inman are very similar, I think they pick one only if the see potential in keeping White, thats if they only keep 5. Wright stays to play the slot. Draft wise, Iike Anthony Miller from Memphis. Tanner Gentry can hang out in the practice squad.
-
Meanwhile at Halas Hall...... The Bears have brought back two familiar faces on the Defense. Lamar Houston OLB and Chris Prosinski S. With injuries limiting Roy Robertson-Harris OLB, Adrian Amos and DeAndre Houston-Carson they need reinforcements. Also noted was Quentin Demps S has returned to practice. His designation to return clock is now started.
-
Orlando Brown OLT has been flying up the draft boards as of late. He is massive and a force in the run game, but with his length he is tough to get around. I also like Mitch Hyatt out of Clemson. Hyatt would be similar to Leno Jr, both around 6'4 305 size, which they both only would suit playing LT. Hyatt has shut down some of the top pass rushing prospects. Sitting at a top 6 pick right now, I would highly consider Brown to play RT/LT. It would be a hard choice because I would also like Chubb or Key to play the opposite OLB. The damning thought is this draft may go down the drains defensively if we do fire Fox. The new coach may switch the Bears back to a 4-3 front, meaning we will need Ends and ILBs.
-
I think they should if they like a prospect. I still have hopes for Trubisky, but as they say, the QB can make everyone around him better. With that said, does anyone think Brady could get it done with this roster and coaching?

Rumor: Pace has list of candidates for next year
ASHKUM BEAR replied to DABEARSDABOMB's topic in Bearstalk
Sounded like Greg Gabriel has some insider information and him and Hub Arkush are working on putting pieces of it together. Wonder how well the team will react as leaks leak out through out the remainder of the season. -
Had high hopes for him, but not sure were he can be used. CB is where I thought he would stick and be similar to Peanut, but they shifted him to S. With Amos playing well and Jackson showimg promise, it looks bleak. He may be better of honing his skills at CB with Fuller and Prince on their final year.
