I would love him to improve enough to hold the spot down but I still think they add a assert to compete for the starter spot. The big question is does Kiran have anything going into his 3 Rd year? Stranger things have happened.

I saw where Thuney won the award today, hope it wasn't just someone posting rumor as a fact. Harrison Graham posted it.

A few people discussed it with you, me and Mongo let you know we want to move on, that's not fighting words.

Yes but in the context of him being here or not, contract reconstruction what we could get for him, not who's to blame for the play we have discussed over and over.

This is no slight against you, it's just a heated discussion that calmer minds will let to go to bed. You and Mongo are on the same side of the argument, he just thinks we have discussed the blame game enough. If you want to discuss, if we trade DJ, what can we get for him? but just because he made a comment it doesn't change anyone's opinion on DJs value. Then you explained who's at fault, that's the touchy part that stirs the pot. That would like me trying to present the argument, Fields is a good QB. It's history and history has shown he's not so why bother stirring the pot?

I was just going to mention that but you did it so elegantly. Everyone has established their opinions before, DJs comments doesn't change anything. The bears are going to do what they think is best for the team no matter what side of the discussion you take. Sit back and enjoy the movie 🍿

The OC implemented the plays BJ called. Offensive coordinator. Everyone liked him has a bright mind but he was hired when BJ couldn't bring in who he wanted. Now older connections are available. We actually may be getting an upgrade at that position. The Jets OC, and two friends from Detroit.

My problem is Maxx just had his 8th knee surgery this season. It pauses me to wonder when it will slow him down. Sweat and Crosby both had 10 sacks this year. He has missed 7 games the last two years. I prefer someone more healthy. Brought to you by San Miguel Light

After bringing in Jarrett an older good pro, I think Poles will have second thoughts going that route. Also a young up and comer Dayo, all these moves say is ( overpay). I think the draft is the key and then if we need something else a one year deal with an older pro. Clowney, Fowler, Floyd, Bosa.

Iowa is always a good place to look for prospects.

Poles is going to want more draft picks but will be according to his big board. If that player is there, whatever position, he's taking him. Look at the surprise first two picks last year. He also could move up a few spots to get someone but not jumping to top 10 that would cost to much. Lots of depth in DTs this year so that's sounds like picking a target in the second. S is a position he may fill in free agency with a later pick in the draft. So that leaves LT or DE as the logical 25 pick. Most teams don't let good LTs leave so odds of us getting one there is slim. Anyone notice that Braxton is the third rated free agent at LT? DEs always get overpaid at edge. (Dayo) I trust the BJ/ Poles team to get what we need.

This makes sense, everyone is speculating but until the contract is viewed by the NFL, it still may leave an opening for the comp picks.

This podcast throws out all the past connections with BJ and they brought up the Boston college OC is already here, Will Lawing. Maybe BJ was playing 4th level Chess and knew everything that was going to happen. The ones I don't want gone is the OL coach and Randle El- Al Harris. I don't think any others aren't replaceable.

Last year Poles signed Dayo for an expensive price and he got hurt. I doubt he wants to pay good money for people with injury history. Crosby just had his 8th knee surgery this past year. Hendrickson has missed time over injuries the last two years. The draft is the key going forward that upgrades both our lines. Now if they find some veterans that may want to play here for a winner and give us team favorably contracts that remains to be seen. The other way to add is trade but I don't see us giving up high drafts if we trade for someone and trading expensive players isn't as easy as people make it out to be. Teams have to have Cap space, the need, and usually rebuilding teams want draft picks in return. So more likely a contender with a specific need but will try to got that thru the draft first. After the draft will be when they look for those additions.

I read a story where there is a coach with Detroit last year that BJ tried to get and Detroit blocked it. The story said he is available this year. I don't remember the name of the coach. As we have openings it does give BJ the chance to bring in other coaches he is aligned with. Anytime you have success you have change. BJ already addressed that when he said there is no carry over that we are rebuilding again.

Spot on.

He ascended quickly. This is not a problem. I read where BJ wants to bring in a coach from Detroit he worked with and now has an opening for him. As much as the league is already raiding the BJ chain, other coaches will want to come here.

Last years draft had two starting Ts drafted from 25 on. Josh Connelly and Josh Simmons. Josh got hurt but played well until then. 2 DL were taken, James Pierce and Tyleik Williams. James had 11 sacks and Williams played 40% of the snaps but wasn't special. So there is players in that range. The second round were littered with lots of good players on both lines, so we can definitely get some value with our first two picks. Dayo and Jarrett were big disappointments but hard to judge when not playing. Jarrett played better later in the year but he's never going to be a star anymore. They both have outs in 27 with contracts but are here for sure one more year. We only have 2 DTs on the roster but 5 DEs for next year.

I wonder if that's a situation that we can appeal that decision. It seems subjective to say he doesn't have any power on the management ladder.

We need safeties too but BJ values that line. They will address both. One of the first 3 picks will be a LT , probably the 1st. You were always the one to say you need to draft in the first round.

Best free agent move for sure but you can't top the Carolina trade . Or his best move hiring BJ.

If he just learns to take the rocket booster off the short passes, that's 5 points right there.

A lot of smart people saying we aren't getting any. At least the league can explain why. GM job isn't just a a coffee carrying job for Ryan.

I don't think she's wrong.

Him and Burden play the same position. I don't think that was ever a thought.
