Great point about Green and character concerns but, with Grady Jarrett, Billings and Montez Sweat as established players on this team, the bears are in a much better position to take a chance that the veterans in the locker room will handle youthful immaturity.

Today's smokescreen has Graham's stock slipping and having him available at 10. This along with Campbell's stock dropping are what I just heard on both the Score and AM1000. Supposedly this coming from Albert Breer.

Campbell is more of a LT than Membo because he played the position as a true freshman for 3 years in the same conference as Membo who played 94 percent of his snaps at RT. The only knock on Campbell is short arms and Membo is being projected to LT because of his Combine workouts.

I push back a little with the fact that Josh Mc Danials being his OC and he usually doesn't embrace a feature RB. This the guy who didn't extend Josh Jacobs.

Reports are swirling around the possibility that Derek Carr may need surgery and be out indefinitely. With the Saints at the 9th pick that puts a QB in the mix at their pick.

The real variable is that it seems Ben Johnson is precise on what he wants and his DC Dennis Allen is as well. We are in gray area similar to when Poles first got hear.

Josh Conerly is my target because, I believe they may be going different from what we all think and the offseason so far has proved that there's a new approach. I'm thinking Shadeur Sanders is the wild card in the first round. If he goes in the top 10 or is on the board at10 anything goes.

10. Kelvin Banks Jr OT Texas- I think there needs to be competition for both Jone and Kiran 39. Quinshon Judkins Ohio St, RB- Swift is not an every down back and Johnson can't avoid concussions with his running style. This prospect is a tough inside runner and a beast in pass pro. 41. Mike Green Edge-Sacks are scarce and the Bears need serious competition at this position, his stats in college are impressive. 72.. Elijah Arroyo TE Miami I have watched this player practice at the Senior Bowl and he was a matchup nightmare. A toy for Ben Johnson. 148. Malachi Moore S Miami- an aging Byard and a concussed Brisker tells me the Bears need depth at the position 233.Jimmy Horn Jr WR Slot Colo -unless DJ Moore Or Odunze is going inside, this is competition for Tyler Scott 240. Eric Gregory DL3T Ark - his listed size and weight say 1 T so a student for both Billing and Garrett This is my first swing at a mock this offseason and I will probably do 1 more before the draft. I'm a Dinosaur, so I actually use Big boards and my actually watching the players play during their season as my reference.

I have been here for quite a while and I feel bad that I have not been as active as I should be. I apologize!

One interesting comment from the Titans defensive coordinator is that they plan on press coverage against the Bears WRs. I really want to see that because I think our receivers against man coverage is an advantage in the Bears favor.

It looks like the defensive momentum from the second half of last season, has continued so far. They have looked like they are emphasizing ball hawking. My only concern is that on some of those DB blitzes, they should go for a strip of the ball.

With a 2 TE set being a staple of Waldron's offense Odunze will be hard pressed to hit those marks especially with Moore and Allen also seeking targets.

I'm wondering if he will be utilized on kickoffs because of the new rules.

The behind the scenes look at the Bears war room was very cool to see and the comments Poles was making on the second day of the draft about " The Punter" and going back in to get Booker was very good to see because it looked as though he executed his draft plan on both days.

I thought there is a rule that you cannot negotiate an extension before the end of year 3of a rookie contract. That means the Bears would still have year 4 plus the 5th year option at their disposal.
