ASHKUM BEAR

So are we saying Sanborn cannot be a Lance Briggs? Please explain why he cannot.

He is the over achiever on a horrible defense. I would think if they put an elite dline in front of him, his play would only improve.

That was my thought when I seen the replay and he grabbed his ankle. Maybe it is only an ankle injury.

Mooney is most likely put for the year. Looks like torn ligament in the ankle and will require surgery.

If they can stay at two, there will be a QB hungry team looking to make a move. The Bears can really use that capital just to catch the teams like jets, dolphins or lions who have added many high level players the past few years.

My first guess was his Achilles popped. If so, it is not good, as those take 9 to 12 months. That would put FS high on the need list.

Looking like a poised vet too. Justin needs to watch him work as the game is moving slower for Simien.

Sounds like Sieman injured his oblique warming up and Peterman gets the start.

If we can net good return and still get a good player is all want. I don't know of we are one d-lineman away. I love the thoughts of having Carter or Anderson, so I can be happy staying too.

As good as Carter and Anderson sound, I would consider moving down for a future 1st, maybe a 3rd and take Bresee. This all hinges on a QB needy team making a trade, but for me that would be the best case scenario.

If he grades close to Carter, I think we need the 3T. If we can trade down and gain a future 1st, they need to do it. I don't see them giving up on Fields yet, but if he is not at 3/4 or at full potential next year, we will have two 1sts to grab another QB if needed. If not,we might be like the Eagles holding a top 5 pick and being championship ready.

Awesome, at least we should be in position to draft another QB?

I wasn't impressed with the bleacher seats, because you felt crammed. I do think using bleachers allows you to put more ppl close to the field, which makes home field loud. Many of the fans I talked to were great and had season tix for 40 or more years. I still think the song is in poor taste.

It is fun to watch. It wasn't fun earlier at Lambo having the entire stadium singing the Bears still suck. To think that the a professional team plays that song over their PA system is okay is low class.

My thought is what other team would trade for the contract and give up good draft capital? The options are to rework the deal or release him.

It makes it exciting. It would be nice if Baltimore would lose out so we feel better when we see Pitt draft a first rd talent with our high 2nd. There are only 31 1st rd pucks this year too.

Breaking News: Bears sign OT Todd Weiner on Wednesday. ?

I like going the defensive route getting DT Carter and then pass rushing DE rd2 to rebuild the front 7. I would also understand putting more resources into Justin Fields hands to give him the best opportunity to flourish. If we feel good with BJones at LT, then get another WR that can take the top off. Jalin Hyatt WR Tennessee would be a Tyreek Hill type field stretcher. 6' 185 with 4.29 speed. RB Achane also has 4.3 speed. Bring in all the speed to take it to the house every touch. TEAM PICKS 6: R1 P6 WR Jalin Hyatt - Tennessee 57: R2 P26 RB Devon Achane - Texas A&M 69: R3 P6 DL Gervon Dexter - Florida 108: R4 P6 EDGE Jordan Burch - South Carolina 134: R4 P32 TE Jahleel Billingsley - Texas 141: R5 P6 OT Olumuyiwa Fashanu - Penn State 161: R5 P26 CB Tony Grimes - North Carolina 221: R7 P6 LB Mohamoud Diabate - Utah

Mock Draft Nov 15. 6: R1 P6 DL Jalen Carter - Georgia 57: R2 P26 EDGE Zach Harrison - Ohio State 69: R3 P6 C Luke Wypler - Ohio State 108: R4 P6 RB Devon Achane - Texas A&M 134: R4 P32 WR Xavier Hutchinson - Iowa State 141: R5 P6 EDGE Mike Morris - Michigan 161: R5 P26 CB Julius Brents - Kansas State 221: R7 P6 OT Zion Nelson - Miami

I think next year if they sign 5 or 6 starter quality players and draft another 8, there will be alot of players we like let go.

I am already considering RB in the draft. This is Montgomerys audition as well. His play has dropped off alot this year. Devin Achane RB Texas A&M looks like a player that can take it to the house, maybe with our late 2nd or 3rd. As for Reyes, let's see what he can do. This year is about finding out. Maybe him and Robinson become pass rush studs and Poles becomes a genius converter.

If be bought in to the new team culture and Poles feels he is a piece to keep, I wouldn't be surprised if they keep him as a building block. He would be one of the only veterans from the old regime

It makes you feel good about who is in charge of building this roster. I hope Cunningham stays.

Regardless of how well Poles may be able to ID talent, the Bears can use the value of a top 3-5 pick. That slot could net them the ability to gain numerous additional picks for years. Trade down from 4 to 15 and gain a future 1st. The team they traded with will not win many games with a rookie QB so next year they have another top 10 pick from that trade and they can move down again and again year after year.
