Mongo you are listening to rumors from radio personalities and making a comment based on those rumors. I've recorded and re watched all the preseason games and Kap has proven over the years that some of his Halas Hall sources are inaccurate.
When we see Fields in live action vs the packers we will know if his sources are true or not.
The toughest thing when trying to move up in sports leagues is knowing when to go for that promotion. Cunningham may want to put a little more on his resume and an improvement with the young players acquired in the past 2 off seasons would do him good.
I think the same goes for Getsy because whatever was said to encourage Fields to use his wheels has to have been something he encouraged. If JF1 shows marked improvement in passing stats he will get Shane Steichen(sp?) consideration.
Very eager to see this part of the offseason as opposed to the speculative part of the offseason. Let's see what we got. I can't believe how many so called Bears' fans are so negative about Justin Fields. He is being called everything from a bust to a RB.
Stinger the league doesn't agree with you.
I'm not a big film watcher but, I watched him and he defends his position and doesn't attack defenders. IMO.
Jimbo Covert was the last OT the Bears drafted in the top 10 but, we have endured Cedric Benson , Kevin White, Mitch Trubisky, Leonard Floyd and Roquan Smith. As a Bears' fan I agree with Jason , this bothers me
There are 3 players that were considered 1st round talents still available Joey Porter Jr, Will Levis and Michael Mayer. This helps push the edge rushers to 53
As a fan of a franchise that is known for great RBs and LBs it is difficult to see this trend but, I get it. Lesson learned when Matt Forte played for another team. I've since put my focus on mid round RBs since the Pace Era.
I'm sticking with my 2.0
9) Paris Johnson Jr. OT Ohio State
53) Keon White DE Georgia Tech
61) Joe Tippmann OC Wisconsin
64) Gervon Dexter DT 3T Florida
103) Jayden Reed WR Michigan State
133) Jartavius Martin CBN Illinois
136) Kenny McIntosh RB Georgia
148) Andrew Vorhees OG USC
218) Aubrey Miller OLB Jackson State or can't decide
Andrei Isoivas WR Princeton
248) Jake Moody PK Michigan
I would consider myself an untrained eye because I never played football but, it seems Skoronski lets the defenders get into his space quickly and doesn't use power at the point of attack and more finesse. The arm length may truly be the reason because he doesn't look like he has his arms extended when engaged with a defender.
