    I have heard several times where BJ wants players that love football, high motors and are violent. The UDFA TE, Hayden Large, got a personal call from him before the draft telling him we were interested in getting him. After picking Roush, he thought he may not sign here, but after calling him, he said this is the only place he wanted to be. BJ was pretty excited about that. Probably just a PS member but TEs get injured a lot.

    I doubt KT ever weighted 340 while with the Bears, I heard said that both him and Washington were in the 370 range.
  3. This again is going to be a tough division but having BJ and Celeb gives us the edge. Look at what the other teams added in the draft, all were more defensive draft picks over offense. I see the Viking having more of a bum than Lions and Packers.

    I see him getting more reps than expected as a 4.28 running the ball.
  6. This is bad news for the Bears. He helped us a lot last year.

    We signed a new kickoff return player. He's not real fast but hard to bring down.
  8. That have a birds eye view as to what they have. Like someone said Braxton is around 315 and working his butt off to enter a payday year and brought in Wills. They have to think very highly that that will work out. Not addressing that spot in the draft in any round makes a statement by itself.
  9. Ourlads has a section where they give NFL depth charts and update them regularly. They have Corey Bullock listed as the strarting C. A two year UDFA. Never heard of him before.

    I agree with you on missing on picks but I look at things differently since BJ got here, a two year sample size and this year is just starting. If I remember correctly wasnt that a AL Harris influenced pick? It seemed like he was panning for him. The draft is influenced by the coaches that have input combined with the scouting dept. Easy to criticized Poles but he wont be remembered for missing on Pickens and Velus Jones. Hiring BJ and drafting Caleb will be on his headstone. Clearly BJ has an influence on the draft and then we have to assume Flus did also. This is all history now, BJ and Poles will be tied to together as we look back on these years in the history of the Bears. They say if you get a couple of stars and a few contributors, that is a successful draft. Last year is all we have to judge and its looking like a win win. Frazier or a miss on Hyppollite will not matter. Of course if you judge a draft on just one year you will be wrong 75% of the time. Players like Hakim Hicks bounced around the league for 3 years before he found a home here. As a third round pick of NO , he failed for 3 years. Examples last year were Duhson Wright, a PS squad player for the Vikings and DeMarco Jackson . Wright was in yr 5 in the league and Jackson in yr 4. I think waiting to see what a few years in the league is more prudent that calling everyone a first year bust. There was a chart I saw that give the % of hits according to what round a player was drafted. I'll try to find the chart but I remember the third round is a 25% hit rate. That doesnt refer to making a roster but is related to becoming a good starter.

    Not sure why everyone thinks Hippolyte sucks . Not all rookies develop at the same pace. I have no idea whether he is any good or not, but I dont think their dropping him until they see if he can contribute after a year of seasoning.
  13. I would say we're in the same place we were last year accept with a healthy Braxton and a vet addition of Wills. If they werent comfortable with their assets they would have found a way to bring a guy in. Having said they, they still could add there if it isnt working out. Also I saw an article in the Tribune and they listed Kiran Amegadjie as a OG.
  14. I just started a Camp Notes thread and stated that transaction. However someone wants to spread that information. Also Bradbury got a restructure on his contract saving 1 mil in salary.
