If we end up getting Williams and Pooka Ford, Clowney ,is everyone okay with that?

Only 2_wins in 25 years of SBs, how is that ridiculous? I understand you don't like facts that disrupt your opinions but I don't either. I liken us to a boxing match. You keep punching below the belt( not smart enough) but I'm just not getting pulled into your conflict any more. I only did that when you called me a child molester. I moved on.

Poles is playing the patience game, after the first wave, he is in a better position to start attacking DE, DT and WR. As you showed, there are still players out there. What I find interesting is the insiders that say Fields is being traded and we are drafting Caleb has not hit on any of the players we signed. No information leaks out of Halas Hall.

Totally agree, he has failed on the OL in general. Wright is a big ceiling type player. B Jones arrow is pointing up but has to keep getting better. Jenkins is a plus player but injury concerns. Davis failed in his first year but that still could be a quality signing. Anyone having a mother die is not in the best place. He will draft a OC , if we do trade backs, Zach Frazier is in play. He seems to attack areas of need by numbers.3 new centers has a higher odds of being better. Last year he made a offer to McGlincy. It would have looked good on paper but he was terrible at 17.5 a year. Better to have cheap fail than expensive. The difference this year is he is improving the depth. That will be a key during the season. He will draft a center and a Jordon Morgan type that could play multi positions. The cheap FA signing suggests to me he is building thru the draft and will load up on draft picks. If he gets 5 top 60 players this year and next , that's 10 more higher level additions. That addresses every weakness.

In the last 25 years only 2 generational QB prospect has won a SB. Peyton Manning and John Elway. Odds 2/25.

They have improved the center position, we were terrible there last year. Even if neither are top 10, an average rating is better than average terrible. Plus added depth.

Lots of different scenarios, I think Poles surprises us.

Nobody knows how all this turns out but at least with Justin, I have something I can project an outcome with., I can see him getting better, he'll never be top 5 but he doesn't have to be. He can wow you with his hero ball. He drives DCs crazy That can win a SB . Williams is just a dream scape of a Mahomes 2.0, odds are slim he's that. Media keeps pushing Caleb but I think there's still a decent chance he goes Justin and draft capital. If he goes with a rookie I can ride that train when it gets here.

What I think is interesting if we didn't have a top 5 pick, none of this would be a conversation. It would be hoping MHJ falls to us.

OTC has DJ Wonnum valuation at 10 mil a year. They valued Hunter at 24.5 and he signed for 29.5. So probably 10-12 is where he settles . We have more money left than Panthers so doubt if it's any kind of bidding war. I would say Poles has a 9 mil value on him. Hope we get him. Reynolds name has been brought up many times. It would be the kind of signing Poles would do. Look at Brian Allen as a potential center he brings in.

Devin Hester just posted a video yesterday lending his support for Justin.

Just going by what the so called experts suggest.

We know Poles has targeted a DE and a WR but obviously they haven't accepted it yet. Poles isn't overpaying in FA. Last year he offered Mike MaGlinvchy 12.5 mil, he ended up getting17.5 and had a terrible year. Glad he lost that player. He always sets contracts to be able to get out of players after two years. If he misses at least its not big money and short term. Better for the team long term. Williams is now available and LA is paying him. 12.4 mil this year. We could offer him a one year 7 mil deal. Everett played with him and his WR coach is with us now. That's the type of deals Poles looks for. Poles will be getting a DE but will surprise us with the name.

Agree, he has to earn his,place but up to this point has played better than many drafted ahead of him.

Bowers is supposed to be special, they compare him to Kittle. Alt is compared to Trent Williams. Who contributes more to team ? OT takes every snap , elite TEs catch 80 catches.

He's going into his third year, we will see what he developed into. If he works hard he'll be better than average, I tink he was ranked 19 th this year.

Which one?

Here is a video that says we have 21 mil left in the cap. He's an analytical nerd, so I trust him more than some journalists I read.

Yes , if Caleb checks the boxes, he.will take him but if there's any doubt trade backs. He just hasn't decided yet . The ( its a done deal the press pushes) is wrong AT THIS TIME.

I'm not saying that isn't a good idea, I don't think Poles takes one this year. His feather in his cap in his first year was drafting a 5 th round pick that made good. Was ranked 18 th among OTs. This year his injury affected him early but played well at the end of the season. With all of our needs, I don't think he's redrafting positions quite yet.

Tim Jenkins Dave Wannsted CJ Stroud Roger King Every player on the Bears Mike Florio ( he thinks they should keep for a bridge QB for rookie) Mark Sanchez

You're right anything is possible, hell Fields could be our starting QB next year. Example, I guarantee you KC is not drafting a QB with their first pick. I just doubt it, I don't know it.

If Poles doesn't choose him it's not going to be because of talent, it will be a work ethic issue, a selfish attitude something like that.

This is the blueprint on how Poles operates business. Every year turns out the same.

Just read a Yahoo report that stated we have 57 mil after the JJ deal. 15 mil in rookie pool, 7 mil in season money puts us at 35 mil when we start deducting contracts.
