Since the draft is today (8:30 PM Eastern)
Alaskan Grizzly replied to Alaskan Grizzly's topic in Bearstalk
At the half Bulls up by 11. For those of you drinking and whatever in your garages. And by the way TErra, it's snowing ALOT right now. And that is why I'm watching bball. -
To borrow a phrase from an eloquent linguinist I know; "mark my words" as the Lions now have Suh we are in for a long year against Detroit. I predict Chicago goes at least .500 against the Lions, if not worse.

I think Angelo means it this time. Going three years without a #1 (or 2 for that matter) is a lot to gamble on. I don't think it necessary to give up next years 1 anyhow. The skill positions are pretty well covered; QB - check, RB- check (2 times) WR - possibly (or at least I'm told), CB - check (despite what others think Tillman will do fine and Bowman will come into his own), LB/DE - BIG check. The only one not so sure is the FS and this draft is FULL of good talent at that position. Plenty that the Bears can wait until round three. As far as OL, I say let's see what Tice/Martz can do with what they've got before really starting to panic. And Terra... Consider your words marked and highlighted.

Since the draft is today (8:30 PM Eastern)

To "TNrick" : Yes the Nashville Predators. I don't believe it either. The Blackhawks were top-tier going into the playoffs. Talked about in hockey circles of going a long way. But given your moniker, I assume you might pull for Memphis? To Terra Tor: I would agree except for two things. If it's not the Bears I don't watch much sports unless one of the "other" Chicago teams make the playoffs (save the Cubs) and the winters in Alaska are realllllly long. -
It's time to catch both the Bulls and Blackhawks in playoff mode. The Bulls are down 0-2 to the Cavaliers and start at 8 PM Eastern and the 'Hawks are down 1-2 to Memphis and start up at 8:30 PM Eastern. Both need Chicago fan support at this point. See there is something positive about the Bears picking in the later rounds.

Assuming this is right...we open in Chi against Det
Alaskan Grizzly replied to madlithuanian's topic in Bearstalk
I dunno, if Jim Schwartz can get all the pieces working together they have brought in this and last year, they could be a pretty decent team. -
I especially like the three "APRIL" preseason games. Hoowah!!!!!

http://wap.nfl.com/site?t=uxH78wwF4fpVx6vF...mA&sid=nfl2 Looks like no "Cutler / Marshall" reunion this year.
-
Here's to a successful career to one of the best Bears in recent history. How about a nice "Gator clap"? I'll actually miss watching Alex doing his post play celebration. It meant things were going good for Chicago.
-
From what I saw, if it was the right episode and to synopsize; Mike Mayock thinks the Bears haven't done enough to pass up the Packers and Vikings. That's why Mayock does College analysis, he doesn't know what he's talking about in the Pros.
-
For some reason every time I see Tebow and hear the detractors I think of Flutie. Intelligent and innovative player. I think whoever drafts him will be pleasantly surprised. And regarding this Dekota Wilson, I assume he is a Safety? Those are good numbers for a big man.
-
I think by "strange" you mean injured? From what I read he was out since '08 with a back(?) injury? Probably should pass on this one.
-
I still like Myron Rolle for some reason. Probably because he can be had in round 3 or 4 and your guy will be long gone by then.
-
I especially like the brown helmets. Instead of cheese heads they could be called turd heads. The accompanying article is below. http://host.madison.com/sports/football/pr...1cc4c03286.html

Well, can't seem to find a good solid time on his 40 as his own personal site says 4.59 http://myronrolle.com/2010/03/02/official-combine-results/ And this site, which shows overall results for all positions, has him at 4.67 http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Sco...positions/S.php Either way, I still think he should be a top consideration for Safety.
-
Just a what if, but recently while watching combine results on NFL Network I heard analyst Mike Mayock say that Myron Rolle will probably go somewhere in the 4th or 5th round. He is a "Safety" and sounds as though he could cover the position perfectly as the Bears would need. Pair that with his Rhodes Scholar title and desire to become a brain surgeon then I think the Bears could definitely be onto something. The article below claims he posted a 4.4 40 time, played at Florida State and his last name is Rolle. What say you? http://bleacherreport.com/articles/350136-...e-be-drafted-in

http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/...-marinelli.html I know many of you will post the disdain you have for having the same defense that Lovie wants but maybe with the players recently added and those coming off injury, things could work out for the better. I like that Urlacher is looking forward to the upcoming season and having Peppers on his team.
-
http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/...with-bears.html Sorry to see him go. Best of luck to an awesome and dedicated player.

Cool, sounds like an awesome experience. Take a pic or two...maybe put up a new avatar? Enjoy.
-
At first I thought you had lost your mind but when I read the article I started to think, why not? The city would love it, especially if he were to do decent which it sounds as though he could. The only question I would ask is how he would feel the day after. Bouncing back is not like being in your early 20's.

Here's some insight why the Rams are doing what they are doing, take note of the last two paragraphs. Maybe this is why other teams are hesitating? LT2 usually undestands this stuff better. http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Report...low-tender.html As far as Sheppard goes, I say pass. Another former Eagle CB R. Hood came and went last year and I would be willing to bet that Sheppard would probably fall into this catgory. Unless the Bears (as posters elsewhere have suggested) that the Bears are thinking of moving Tillman to Safety. Remember that there is still Bowman and that kid from Vandy still on the roster at CB. Stay focused on FS Bears.

It's his wife that should spark interest. http://www.bittenandbound.com/wp-content/u...a-wilkinson.jpg By the way Terra, like your new sig and avatar. It was time to bid Cedric adieu.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=cr-b...o&type=lgns Not a bad article but I am not sure exactly how to go with it. In one hand the writer states the obvious in that Lovie, Angelo and crew are on the last straw and then he writes that he speculates (like many of you expressed concern) that the signing of Peppers may not work out. The one point in particular is how Robinson thinks that Peppers may not be the leader the Bears need but I ask what about Urlacher? I think he is the undisputed leader on Defense. And don't forget that there are players like Briggs, Tinoisamoa, Harris and Tillman still on the roster that really aren't all that shabby. Anyhow, maybe someone else had a different insight??? I still have to say that yesterday rated right up there with Super Bowl XX, the signing of Cutler and watching Payton set the rushing yards record (before E. Smith broke it later).

Now I think NFlingo was right after all...THIS guy is the consummate professional. Welcome to Chicago Chester. Hope you enjoy your stay!!!

So now you are a fan of Lovie's??? Ha ha....
