You really need to get off that stud OG stuff. We have two new players there and that are more seasoned than any rookie we could have brought in. Robinson dropped as low as he did for a reason, and wouldnt be starting here if we did drafted him. Garza is the oldest guard we have now and I think he is 30, there will draft one to develope in the future, we are quite find at guard, you will see one they take the field.

Couldnt have stated any better that you did.

We dont know how these players will turn out, but what I did like. We draft the DL, where we definitly need more of a pass rush and addressed that. We added WRs and definintly needed an upgrade there. We added a solid LB, hopefully that means we can improve our SLB position by him or moving people around. We added a very good CB which means, maybe that looses up a player to slide into the FS spot we didnt address in a weak FS class. Maybe a new FB which would please me alot. A blocking TE is a small move but might help alot at the goaline. I think we also may have a goalline RB in Melton to punch it in at the goaline of which we couldnt do last year. We vastly improved our OL threw FAgency, and would have like to had a developmental OT, but you cant fill all your needs in one offseason. And finally added a QB which will evevate the play of all phases of the team.

Melton is just an upside guy, but beg to differ on producton for Gilbert. 47 Ts, 22 TFL, 9.5 Sacks, 3 PKnockdowns, doesnt sound like a bad year for a DT. The top DT in the draft had 14TFL, 7.5 sacks, 5 knockdowns.

He comes from a unique situation of changing positions and only getting one year of starting out of it. I like production guys of which he is not but everybody doesnt follow the same senerio to get to be a good player. I think with some coaching could fall into a high reward player. And then again he could be a bust, but we wont know that answer for a couple of years will we.

It bothers me alot to get an endorsment from Mel Hair.

Sean Smith was gone in the second round.

this is how I would play it, but remember Im not that sharp. 3a-Johnson/FS/Ala addresses one of our pressing needs 3b-Inglesias/WR like this pick 4a-Melton/DE great upside 4b- Moore/CB great valve 5a- Knox/WR could be Cutlers next Eddie Royal 5b- Fulton/OT could develope in to a reliable player 6- Follett/LB a strongside LB 7a-Hoyer/QB NE wanted him, enough said 7b-Gill/DT He aint Gilbert but still could make the rotation

I doubt if we grab anybody unless the 3 we picked up look real bad in the training camp time. Your right that would help with veteran player, but only on preseason cuts after some draft choices fall on there face. Do you think we can line up a trade for a FS after teams line up there teams, like we did with Oguly? That is a possible senerio.

I think Ingelisias and Knox will get a chance to catch a few balls this year. I think Gilbert with fill in in the rotation. Freeman could by the end of the year to become a starter at SLB. Moore will take McBrides spot on the roster. Louis will become our blocking TE. The player contributing the most from this draft will be Melton, as a situational pass rusher and the key here, OUR GOALLINE RB THAT WILL PUNCH IN TDS WE COULDNT DO LAST YEAR FROM THE THREE.

Actually Melton was a fullback, maybe at the goalline we have someone that can punch it in, unlike last year.

I dont know how to attach it to this site.

Great Blue North website has a list of all the undrafted college players on it, and it is pretty extensive. Lots of names we thought would have been drafted somewhere.

After the season, I look forward to this day, and then after, feel so wore out from all the intelligence that has bombarded me. I have an opinion, but it only matters to me. Is it a good draft, I hope so, but nobody will know for a couple of years. The facts; some will hit and some will miss, and I hope its enough to raise my team to something of a glory day I once felt. Since the Cutler trade, I have renewed trust and excitement, that I will be happy most sundays. I dont care if they drafted 8 DTs with our picks or who the hell we get in the 7th round. Whether we added the right piece in FAgency or as a draft pick, it only matters when we win and a 4th round draft choice three ago, happened to play well. Its about winning, and these coaches and GM will be responsible, or they will leave in the very near future. My glass is half full and will always be that way, even when they screw up, becuase their is always a new player and a new coach to get excited about.

I agree with you.

Just because they drafted a FS doesnt mean they take the tag off, just means they have another guy who can play FS and CB.

I believe we will take him.

Also Clemons/Clemson

ran a 4.51 at his pro day, and 37 inch vertical. Productive, and was suggested to go in the late 2nd or early 2rd.

Right on with that comment.

They fall in to line with the best player available too.

Maybe he becomes Eddie Royal this year for Cutler.

The difference between him and Currie is he doesnt have any injury issues and was way productive. 30 TDs in two years.

NFL taked about him slipping because of weight issues and bad work ethic.

Gruden just commented on the Bears and stated with this draft and Culter that the Bears are back! I like this pick.
