Miller is injury prone,Housler is just a body and we have no idea what we have in Lee. That is precisely why we need to draft another prospect. We have to keep moving forward. A prospect with the extra pick we got from NE would be a perfect fit for that spot.

They are not drafting a TE in the first round simply because the BPA scenario with apply and Hunter at best is a early 2 nd round pick.

First of all when you answer a question about whether we draft a TE, that means in the whole draft, so your answer would be yes. As far as addressing Jason's question, we will draft a TE. The only one of significant valve is Henry of which we would have to probably draft in the second round. So I do not think we draft one until the 4th round with that extra pick we got from NE. Projected in that round would be Nick Vannett/OS-Jarelle Adams/SC-Jake McGee/F-Tyler Higbee/WK Out of those I like Vannett and Higbee the best. Good size, good blockers and potential in the passing game. As far as free agency, I would chase Scott Chandler for a mediocre deal. He has some pass skills but is a good blocker. You figure him, with less time for Miller(save him from injuries) you can make the TE position competent. I think White is going to take off and with Jeffery, if Royal stays healthy, you only need average stats from your TE position.

They didnt keep Marshall so your premise does not apply. The problem with the team over the last few years is numerous but under Trestman he wasn't a leader. Our leader in the locker room was Marshall, unless this is an insane asylum probably not a good idea. If we still had leaders in the locker room like Urlacher or Krentz, none of this shit would have happened. You need team leaders or a Coach that commands the ship ,not egocentric players. The result of this is a losing team. We now have a coach that controls the chemistry of the team. That is a good thing, and not a bad thing because we dont like all of his decisions. In 2 or 3 years when we get good again, Marshall and Bennett would have been gone anyways, so we might as well have a youth injection and move forward.

I dont where blinders and agree with everything a team does.If you have been on here for a long time you will know I have a mouth on me when agreeing or disagreeing with a particular topic. In this case I disagree with your point of view, as animate as you are about it, the same animation I disagree against that premise. Life is not perfect and we need to just learn to go with the flow, if everybody had the same point of view about everything this would be a boring site. For me being a Bear fan, I try to understand the reasons for everything and try to stay positive about the future, I do not agree with all choices but in the end if we become a consistent winning football franchise, Im on board.

I would prefer to have them here, because I am not in the locker room and have to deal with the crab that those put forth. Unfortunately everything is just not that simple, your a good player so lets kiss your ass and keep you. Sitting in my seat, I dont get to see everything that occurs behind close doors and I do not agree with everything any regime does as far as the Bears go. I am a plumber and am working on a large job with 16 men there. Work should be a more pleasant experience than having to work with an asshole that keeps drama in the air all the time. There is one that always keeps tension in the forefront, and just because he is a good worker and smart as his job doesn't mean his attitude affect everybody working there. Maybe you are fortunate to not have to experience that in your job but I prefer a better attitude when having to spend so much time with some asshole. The plumber I am talking about just got sent away last monday and work is more enjoyable.

I can see if falling like that, I can buy into that being a good draft.

Marshall was a cancer, history proves he wears out his welcome even thou he puts up good stats. Bennett plain and simple would have held out for a new contract, he doesnt really care about his teammates, it is all about money to him. The final straw was when he publicly stated he didnt watch his teammates play when he sat out the Thanksgiving day game. He is a good player but when all you do is be a whiny little bitch because 5 mil that you have owed to you was enough last year but now he wants more money. If you love Marshall so much or Bennett, they play for other teams, go watch them.

Let me see we didnt win anything with the great Brandon Marshall, or how did we do last year with Marvelous Bennett? The fact is we need to change the culture of this time, we simply have not been very good. Let me see, one SB appearance since the 1985 team. Im all in on trying something different and I think we have a GM and a coach that can get us there. Everything isnt perfect but Im willing to wait a few years and see how this turns out. OR I can bitch like you and pretend Im a huge Bear fan that doesnt see the valve in what is going on now.

I like what i see so far but ultimately it will take 3 years to judge him, like we usually do with players. We could look and say he screwed this up or made a nice move there, but will only matter that we become a consistent winner and get to a SB.

How do you not get he was a problem for the team? Yes he had talent, but was a problem for the new coach. He did not attend OTAs(bad start with a new coaching staff), he complained all the time he wasnt getting the ball enough. HE WOULD HAVE HELD OUT IF NOT GIVEN A NEW CONTRACT. He had run in with players on the team. Was sent home twice last year during practice for being a problem. Read about his issues , there is the stories coming out now that he is gone. Just because he is a good player, doesnt mean he is good for the team. To much of a me player,Fox needs guys to buy in to team effort not constantly causing problems.

Or watch him fail . Just because NE signed him doesnt mean he becomes a good player. If he can stick good for him but I have my doubts. We will have to see what his contract was.

Seems someone gave him some money.

I think they have one more 3 year 12 mil deal left to make, not sure who that would be. We could use a S, another DL or a CB

Actually there is 1.125 mil in dead money, but still a plus.

Were getting a 4th and giving them our 6th, not such a bad deal for someone who didnt want to be here.

He is not starting in Seattle. Good for him he got better and made some money. If you hitch a wagon to a guy, maybe pick someone with more upside. He was not very good then, and has grown a little, I dont think that is saying a lot.

Pats pick behind them so maybe a 5th for our 6th. Better than nothing

Here is a website that has good information for any position. http://www.draftcountdown.com/nfl-draft-ra...rback-rankings/

There going to use two guys alot so they want more of an upside choose than Carey. I like the way he runs, but Fox and Pace like speed and he just insnt that. Last year , if Perry doesnt get hurt, Im not sure he makes the team.

I think you address the positions fine, but dont like your CB in the 4th, would prefer Xavier Howard/Baylor( 6'2" Also I would prefer Hogan/ST instead of Driskel.More of an accurate passer.

Rodgers is a 3rd back, there concern is Carey. They want more of a clear choice than Carey.

BM was chaos, you cant have that in a locker room, it was always about him

Just seen where Chandler Jones just got traded to AZ for Jon Cooper and a 2nd rounder. The guy we should have drafted instead of Shea.

I couldnt make an honest assessment on where he belongs, but I trust Fox and Fan and its looking like they dont think much of him or he would have seen more time on the field. When Anderson and Timu starts ahead of him that is not a good thing.
