Not sure, but could this be the reason we never played bump and run? If Tillman had two bad shoulders, he probably was not able to give to much of a stick at the line. This is not an excuse. If this was the reason, I wish he did not stick it out. We were creamed in the secondary.

This sounds interesting. Has anyone seen him play? Websites seem to differ on if he projects as a ROT or LOT. For the record, I have no problem picking a OT in the first and looking at Brown in the 3rd with one of our 2 picks. Linemen are so hit (Joe Thomas) or miss (Robert Gallery). Scouts say: Ryan Clady, Boise State I say: Duane Brown, Virginia Tech The skinny: Forget about quarterback, there are more busts on the offensive line than anywhere in the draft. Clady looks the part, but I’ve got reservations about his tenacity. Brown, on the other hand, is one mean dude. And that’s what I want on my offensive line: a mean dude with an attitude. Yeah, he’s not as technically sound as Clady—or others, for that matter. But he’s a tough, strong guy with good feet and a large wingspan. He doesn’t run a sub-5.0 40 like Clady, but it’s about burst, power and desire on the offensive line. And Brown has it all. Matt Hayes is a writer for Sporting News.

It seems he signed http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune....s-will-sta.html 6 year/ $36 mil. Does not seem like we broke the bank. Who is next?

3b) Kevin Smith RB/Central Florida If we draft Smith in the 3rd round, who do we drop? Lovie is on record saying AP is on any team he coaches. Wolfe was a 3rd rounder last year. Benson is supposed to compete this year. Do we carry 4 backs? Are we wasting another 3rd rounder?

The Bears released Moose per NFL.com. While I did not think he had a great year, who are we going to get to replace him? here does that leave us draft wise?
