Do they trade a 5th and a future 4th for the Redskins LT? Not sure how they could make it work cap wise, but it would be intriguing (if he really goes for as little as a 3rd day pick).

Haha. Hopefully we find out they drafted 2 perennial pro bowlers at these positions. With Nagy;'s offense, Kmet is just going to open up so much. I'm not big on Graham, but having Graham, Robinson, and Kmet will be much better. Miller is going to have to step up (and Kmet is a rookie so we have to temper expectations no matter what...but I really think the Bears finally found one). They still need some speed at wideout...like big time they are lacking that. But the offense got a lot better this year, purely by the massive upgrades at TE. We need to hope the oline got a lot better via coaching/scheme enhancements (not as optimistic here but I hope it works out). I also think we should see improvements from Daniel and whitehair and I would hope a bounce back from Leno. No reason he struggled as much as he did last year.

I could see this guy being a perennial all pro TE. Just love this pick and the fit is also just fantastic. Finally we got a TE. Let's not hire Marta in a year and ship him off cause he doesn't fit the system haha. I don't know if people realized the fact he wasn't dedicated to football. I think with him now doing this full time, we'll see him get even better. Just such a nice athlete and a guy who can just be an absolute complete tight end. Despite his size, he looks and runs so fluid. Just a really nice athlete. LOVE IT.

Yes please. I actually kind of think we see the Bears potentially dangle a pick from next year to pick in the 4th or 5th this year. Could very well be for Eason.

My opinion - CB was the biggest need on the team. The teams #2 CB is a free agent out of the CFL (as it currently stands). If anything happened to Fuller, oh man, this team probably has the worst DB set in the league. Johnson is a good player and despite the surgery he played last season. I do agree, definitely a health concern though.

Kellen Davis had stone hands. He actually would have been a pretty solid TE if he could catch. Not near as athletic as Kmet (but he was a solid blocker and a physical specimen). Kmet has pretty good speed for his size. Much more fluid than Davis was and with better hands.

Completely agree Pix.

Plus Nagy's offense runs through the TE, so it is paramount to have one. I fully believe one of the biggest issues that plagued the Bears offense in 2020 was the fact that it had the worst TE production in the NFL (and to be frank - there wasn't a team even close to as bad as the Bears). I had read something that indicated Burton was one of the worst starting TE's (based upon advanced analytics) in like NFL history. Having Graham and a young guy who appears to have potential to be a complete TE would be really nice. Fact he can block and get out on routes and make plays is huge because Bears have struggled a ton with their predictability of certain personnel (in terms of telegraphing pass vs. run) and this will certainly help with that. No issue with the CB we took either. Position of need and nice value. I wonder if they bring back Prince at some point on a 1 yr deal too (to help with depth). Would love to find a wideout that fell later in this draft but presume we'll see oline next. I do think if Eason is there when the Bears pick they will grab him.

In this draft I'm trading down. Deep draft and we have needs. I'd try to move both down (but not too far) and be in a position where they can really land some of these wideouts. I'm not okay with just 1 wideout in this deep of a draft. This team needs speed in Nagy's offense and it doesn't have that.

Seriously. Yes please.

Is that the next Packer all pro QB. Will be interesting how Rodgers reacts to this.

The raiders technically net out an extra 1st in total. They got 2 from us and giving up 1 for Ngakoue.

I hope we don't somehow have a pick today (unless it is an absurd trade in our favor...i.e., Mitch for a 1st round pick).

The Bears have offset protection so if he signs for $500K, Bears save $500K.

I can still see Mitchell emerging as an above average QB. Elite, absolutely not, but I can still see him being a pretty good QB in this league, but the window is closing. AM excited to see how he responds to this entire situation.

I could very much see the Bears eventually signing him plus Osemele. Will give them a lot of flexibility heading into the draft. I kind of think they take 2 wideouts with their first 3 picks (or a WR and TE) with the first 3 picks.

We have need for speed and playmaking at wideout. This is a historically deep draft at wideout. We can't finish this draft having not addressed that position and played to the strength of the draft. I just hope we pick the right one (unlike the year we picked Shaheen in a deep TE draft).

The problem is they have to deal with his contract a year from now. I Think they need to understand whether they intend to spend money on him or not. If they don't, than I think it might be better to move on from him a year early (vs. late). Learn from the Floyd situation.

Interesting there are now reports that Bridgewater turned down the Bears because they weren't ready to guarantee him the starting job (want to make sure there is a competition for Mitch). I think that indicates exactly where they stand with Foles. Expect a full blown competition and I personally hope Mitch wins (because if he could actually take things to the next level, it would be HUUUGE).

I've seen we might be getting up to 3 comp picks (which would be a nice bonus a year from now).

Welcome aboard and I agree with you entirely. Good news is this WR draft is one of the deepest in years so the Bears should be able to get 1 or 2 pretty darn good receiving talents.

Fairly certain none of them will step-up.

I agree - There is reason to be cautiously excited about Roberson.

I would be really annoyed if we gave up even more future draft picks.

One of which is likely a draft pick (probably one of our earlier picks). I'd like to move down a bit and target a couple wideouts, some DB's, some olinemen. If a TE were to fall, that would be great too.
