I think that choosing who succeeds and doesnt is such a difficult thing to do no matter what information you have, that is why they are 50/50 at it. My point is they have more information to go by . We read stuff, look at tape and and make intelligent opinions but its not comparable. I always look at production, desire, and worth ethic to decide who I think will do well. I just dont have privy to the same information the experts do. I prefer a instinctive football player to a physical freak. The perfect example is Edmunds and Smith. Edumunds is a freak and if he grows with a coach should have a better career than Smith if you look at measurables but 3 things stick out to me that I am not sure Edumunds will ever have, instincts and leadership qualities. The desire to win. It is hard to determine that from our prospective. They have a better chance of reading those signs than us. I think if fans had the same information I am sure some would excel at doing a better job than some NFL personal. We are just not in the same situation as them. When people like Brady, Wilson, slip in drafts, you know the system is flawed for everybody.

I was pushing for R. Smith the whole time, so obviously I think that is a great pick, but I have to say, the more I see and read about Anthony Miller, the more I think he will be special in this offense.

Here is an updated list of UD RB Ryan Nall (Oregon State) CB Tafon Mainsah (Richmond) Edge Elijiah Norris (Shepherd) WR Junmil Hornsby (Limestone) OL Dejon Allen (Hawaii) WR Regis Cibasu (Montreal) DB Nick Orr (TCU) LB TJ McCollum (Purdue) Edge Andrew Trumbetti (Notre Dame) DB Michael Joseph (Dubuque) P Ryan Winslow (Pittsburgh) LB Nyles Morgan (Notre Dame) CB Kevin Toliver (LSU) CB Rashard Fant (Indiana) Edge Olubunmi Rotimi (Old Dominion) Edge Cavon Walker (Maryland) DL Abdullah Anderson (Bucknell) WR Garrett Johnson (Kentucky) RB Nick Wilson (Arizona)

I have been reading about Rotimi/edge and he has size and a quick twitch, he could surprise and hang around at least on PS. Also Have read some good things about A. Anderson/DT from Bucknell that has been added. He looks like he could stick around. As far as UD, I think Toliver-Joseph-Nall-Rotimi-Anderson all have a chance to hang around . Joseph and Rotimi have a chance to make 53. Rotimi has size, speed and quick traits that say he could be ascending.At 6-3 273 4.7 speed Bio: Three-year starter who was named Honorable Mention All-Conference USA in 2016 and 2017. Made 29 tackles (seven for loss) with 5.5 sacks as a senior. Recorded 44 tackles (10 for loss), seven sacks and two forced fumbles as a junior. Posted 36 tackles (six for loss) and 4.5 sacks in 2015. Made two starts and tallied 30 tackles (2.5 for loss) and two sacks as a true freshman after walking on. Pos: Incredibly athletic pass rusher with outstanding movement skills. Fires off the snap, plays with terrific pad level and displays good change of direction. Immediately alters his angle of attack, displays speed in pursuit and chases the action hard. Gets a lot of force going up the field and can be tough to handle. Keeps his feet moving and his hands active. Neg: Lacks natural bulk and strength. Handled at the point of attack. Gives effort defending the run but is often sealed away from the action. Analysis: Rotimi is an explosive edge rusher with growth potential and a good amount of upside. He needs to improve his playing strength and refine his game but offers possibilities as a defensive end in a four-man line.

This all starts with our new coaching staff. They all look like studs and we will have to see how that translates to the football field but the arrow is pointing up. Everything we did is contingent on Trubisky being good, the signs say he could be real good. At least we upgraded the talent around him. QB-we appear to have more competent backups this year with Daniels and Bray ( we will find out if MT goes down) RB-Howard , Cohen, Cunningham, Mizzell, Nall Howard will excel in this offense and Cohen will be a star because Nagy will use him properly. Cunningham is a good backup that could carry part of the load if Howard would go down. Mizzell is an interesting player that they could stash on PS, Nall has yet to show anything but is at least big enough to carry a load if Howard goes down. Probably a PS guy also. WR- Robinson,Gabriel, Miller, White, Bellamy,Gentry, Fowler, Brown,Ayers, Wims Robinson, Gabriel, Miller, Fowler I think are no brainers, I think White sticks and Bellamy-Gentry-Brown-Ayers all go away. Wims get stashed on the PS. Total upgrade at the position with high expectations. Fowler is a good ST guy so I think he pushes Bellamy off the roster. The wildcard here is White, everybody is writing him off but I think Nagy puts him in the position to contribute this year. I think Miller turns into a stud in the slot position. TE- Shaheen,Burton, Sims, Brown, Braunecker, Thompson This is going to be a huge part of the passing game. Burton will shine, Shaheen will take a step forward. I even think Sims gets put in a better position to succeed . Brown even may have room to stick if they only keep 5 WRs. Braunecker and Thompson look like done. OL- Leno, Massie, Sowell,Long, Kush, Morgan, Whitehair, Lee, Grasu, Daniels, Watford, Greene. We all complain about our OTs but they actually played better than we first think. Sowell is the only backup OT that probably sticks. With Whitehair, Long, Daniels we should have a stable situation this year. Longs health is a concern, but this year Morgan and Kush at least give up competent backups. Finally they can get rid of Grasu that just sucks, Watford may stick, It seems like another backup OT is needed that may keep C. Lee around a while. This offense is going to be fun to watch once it gets off and running. MT is the key but the running game will give great support to put MT in a better position to succeed . Cohen is going to be stud in this offense, and Burton will star. This offense could be top 10 if everything goes right.

seriously, your saying Fangio isnt any better at judging talent than the typical fan? I want some of what your drinking. Yes the experts are at 50/50 but they know what players fit their systems better, they interview the players, they spend time with them looking at everything about them. We read what other people say and that makes us on par with coaches and GMs. OF course they only get it right 50% of the time but they have more information than we do to make those decisions. It just shows you how hard it is to judge players and their success at the NFL level. Medicals come into play that we sometimes do not have information on. Attitudes, are difficult to tell in stories. It is not even close to being some fans are as smart.We guess right sometimes, but forget all the ones we suggest that flop.

here is the latest list of UDFA RB Ryan Nall (Oregon State) Edge Elijiah Norris (Shepherd) OT Dejon Allen (Hawaii) DB Nick Orr (TCU) Edge Andrew Trumbetti (Notre Dame) DB Michael Joseph (Dubuque) P Ryan Winslow (Pittsburgh) LB Nyles Morgan (Notre Dame) CB Kevin Toliver (LSU) CB Rashard Fant (Indiana) Edge Olubunmi Rotimi (Old Dominion) Edge Cavon Walker (Maryland)

CB Rashard Fant from Indiana

CB Kevin Toliver from LSU, that is somebody that could stick. He was the 12th rated CB on draftcountdown website

Ptt punter Ryan Winslow

Nyles Morgan/ND, have no idea what position he plays

Andrew Trumbetti/DE from ND

Nick Orr/S from TCU

Michel Joseph/CB Dubuque just became a BEAR

Hawaii OT /Dijion Allen

EJ Norris of Shepard/EDGE just signed

Nall /RB just committed to Bears

Here is Aaron Leming list of top UDFA It was in better form when I copied it. A lot of good names on there. Nall/RB XXX Adams/RB XXX Franklin/RB XXX Cobbs/WR XXX Burrnett/WR XXX Lazard/WR XXX Trinnaman/WR XXX Harrison/OT XXX Crabtree/OT XXX Welsh/OG Phillips/OG XXX Parris/OG Thompson/DT Ford/DT Lotulelei /DT Mata'afa/EDGE XXX Ostman/edge XXX Holland/EDGE Deluca/ILB Meeks/CB Toliver/CB XXX Hill/CB XXX Jackson/CB Joseph/CB XXX Igwebuike /S XXX Blanding/S Kelly/S XXX marks the players I would like to see come in .

It will define itself, I would say to take him in the 4th , that Fangio had some input into this. Do they suspect to groom him to take over for Trevathan in one or two years. He can run and is athletic, but just dont have enough information.

Some of these seem as odd picks with known names on the board, but they due indepth research on them, so somebody liked them, they just didnt draw names out of a hat. I also heard that Kwait will be moving to the outside.

We need more information, maybe a SS ? Pass rusher only? Has the frame to put on 20 lbs?

the next two rounds is Paces playground, finding Howard,Cohen, Jackson,Kwiat, and Amos were all in the 4th or 5th.

I think we can dismiss anything Pace says about where he plays. We will get him in here, HH will evaluate him and they will play were ever they fit best. As he is still growing he will probably put on 20 lbs and play around 315 to 320. One year of NFL development and he will be the guy.

For everybody that complains about losing the draft capital over this pick. We lose a 2nd next year, BUT we get one this year. What you have to look at ,we get a guy that they wanted, is a perfect fit to this offense, adds the missing piece to make this offense go, we get to develop him for one year, and get to have his services this year. How does that compare to a 2nd next year? a future with no value this year. So what it amounts to is we gave a 4th and we had an extra 4th this year. He has been compared to Antonio Brown by several scouts. Short area quickness, chip on his shoulder attitude, YAC ability, and fight for the ball attitude. If he is 60% of A. Brown, we robbed this player. I think he ends up being MT go to guy in this offense, if not this year next. A move the chains kind of guy. 4.46 to 4.50 speed, good enough, AB was 4.56 coming out.

If we could get our hands on Tyrell Crosby in 4 and Mata'afa in the 5th that would be awesome.
