ASHKUM BEAR

That is why I suggest Nicholas. OLB is not what this teams needs to invest in, late round pick with potentiàl, yes.

Spence is making a name, but I like Dadi Nicholas a litte later. That depends who's there at #11. Spence may be bpa. With money in FA, the Bears can make the jump this year. I don't think Bear fans are ready for this yet.

I like a few of those names. Jaye Howard DL, I think he will sign much friendlier than Malik Jackson. Danny Trevathan, he's the speed guy. His size/speed fits the Myles Jack or Su'a Cravens type. Tashaun Gibson, great story on the FS. Worked his way into being the best. As for Irving, I am not sold at adding more dollars to OLB. Add those three on D and get Osemele on the oline and we have a good rebuild core.

Hackenberg caught a lot of crap lately. He decided to stay at PSU after all that went down and the school but should've moved on. The school chose a coach and offense that didn't work well for him. They also lost scholarships to bring in better talent. He was a #1 college recruit so he has the tools.

The difference between the two is Jacksons stats go down when his team has the lead and Williams goes up when they are down. Could be what the philosophy in what their team asks for them. Jackson may be asked to hold and take doubles were Williams is free to attack. Regardless, we need playmakers. Whether that is in Williams or whoever. I just hate to see them bring in a guy and have to move another that played it well (Goldman).

He would be a tough choice with the 2nd rd pick, but may be the best fit. I like Adolphus Washington also there. I am not sure on Ian Williams and moving Goldmann outside as mentioned. Goldman played well at NT and should only get better.

That would be interesting to see also. Talk about a team screwing a guys career. Would like to seem him redeem himself and give Chicago something back for the huge waste he has been. The kid has been a good sport the whole time too.

Undrafted FA that put in the work and effort to become a probowler. Seems like a good type to have on your team. He would play FS, would Amos be able to play the SS?

I am on the bandwagon to give him another shot if Fangio wants him. He needs to come cheap though and may have to play ST's.

I think the Bears do offer him top dollar with the cap space they have. If they dont reach a deal, the Bears have to put the franchise tag on him. Alshon has added pressure to get a long term deal with that company he signed on with (can't recall the name). I think that is why he sat many games to protect this investment.

A lot of Chicago Bear stories hitting the press today and I haven't seen any discussion here on it. * Bears are aggressively working on Alshon Jeffery's contract Will they reach an agreement before March 1, or apply the tag? * Pace and Fox foreshadowing the departure of Martellus Bennett? The didn't say much about looking forward to him, but said he is under contract * Zach Miller TE in the works for an extension? Pace said they want Miller back, will they meet halfway on a friendly deal for both? *Draft flexibility in Paces eyes With 9 picks in hand, Pace said they have flexibility to move up or down the draft this year. Wonder what he's thinking. Just a few I've seen, feel free to add or discuss.

The Bulls D Rose.

Seems like a scenerio all to familiar as a Bears fan. One pick too late to get the guy we covet. If that happens, hopefully we can trade down. Otherwise we may have angry fans because we thought the GM reached for his guy. As for CB, word is Will Jackson is highly thought of by the Bears and others. What would the reaction be if they took him?

Pace's pre-combine interview, he mentioned how medical exams and interviews are the most important things the get from the combine. He wants a clean slate of health, which may eliminate Smith and Jack.

I have been throwing Chris Jones name for a while now. I was hoping we can get him in the 3rd or 4th, he is one of the few 5T defensive linemen that I think can do well.

I don't think it is out of the possibility if all the other positions of need dry up and he sees a future star.

Ezekiel Elliott RB OSU ........................................wait for it 5,4,3,2,1 Other possibilities: Vernon Hargreaves CB, Noah Spence OLB, Jarran Reed DT, Darron Lee OLB, Wentz/Goff/ QB. And just so you know Elliot was a to get you worked up.

I know you do not like RB in the draft, but they will be finding another back to challenge Carey for #2 either through the draft or FA. Perry is only on this team if the keep 4 RB's.

Right, and that is mainly all Benjamin is besides kr/pr. I think our WR group is ok if Jeffery, White, and Royal are healthy. The bad part is wr's don't stay healthy lately. How deep do you go stock piling? This draft, I'd prefer to skip WR and get a backup rb, oline, and lots of D.

I really hope he can stay healthy. Hd was making noise in TC. He may be a able to take the Jenkins role.

It was an automated mock draft, can't knock it unless you try it and share. You always try and take the value presented by the rules also, you did well.

I would target Osemele and Trevathan first. Fills two biggest needs. Next target would be Jackson or Howard at DL. Re-sign Porter at CB also. Pray the draft falls our way. Stanley, Jack, or Buckner in the first or a trade down and take Smith.

I never said they were old, just veterans. I agree they need to mix rookies, especially at the OLB position. With McPhee and Houston signed long term, Young with this season left, they should bring in a later round rookie to groom. If they decide to find a 4th OLB in FA, then they would have too much $ tied up IMO.

I am not on board with bringing Long in. We have 3 vets at OLB, time to bring in the future. He is too small to be a down DL in a 3-4 also. Cook, I think he is talented. Put him on a NE/GB offense and I think he can put up numbers. With him now in the TE FA pool, the TE price should go down just a little. Laurinitis, he is another guy with talent. If we miss out on Trevathan, then schedule him in as #2 or 3 guy to call.

A draft that has Stanley, Smith, and Kearse is like a beautiful woman walking by(no harm intended to females). First see Stanley, the chest, Smith the face, and Kearse the backside as she walks away. Never even noticed the rest. I do like Tretola and Hogan picks too. The rest would be ok. I just did a fanspeak using walters board and started stanley/smith too. I went Chris JonesDT 3rd.
