I would hate to lose a 3rd rounder only to move up 3 spots.
Phillps and Clady probably won't make it out of the Top 10.
I would still rather move down into the early 20's and pick up a late 2nd, if some team wants to move up.
12-4 would be a remarkable turnaround for a 7-9 team. You are assuming we will go 5-1 in the division a year after going 2-4.
Realistically, I see us at 10-6.
8 picks.
Our picks for the first three rounds:
1st Round - #14
2nd Round - #44
3rd Round - #75
3rd Round - (from SD somewhere around #90)
Then we have the following picks (approximates based on # of supplemental picks):
4th Round - #109
5th Round - #151 (from CAR)
6th Round - #181 (Approximate due to supplemental picks)
7th Round - #224 (Approximate due to supplemental picks)
I've never heard it like that before.
Obviously the O-Line needs an overhaul thru FA and the draft. It will be interesting to see what happens before the draft. I believe the Bears will also do some post-June 1st moves this year - picking up players other teams need to cut to save cap space.
I would not give up Brown or Anderson in that scenario. If we are moving up, I would swap picks, give up next year's 2nd and this year's extra 3rd (from SD). There would probably need to be another swap in there to even things out.
True, but sometimes the favorites are not the better team. I picked the Chargers because I thought Indy was over-rated. I am actually surprised they won without Gates, LT, AND Rivers. Indy should've kicked that FG.
Good job, but how many of those were actually a wild upset pick? Most of those were favorites anyway.
I had the same picks except SD beating the Colts today.
I think the guy needs to be a receiving threat who is still big enough to run between the tackles. The Bears need to be able to use the RB screen more.
Can you believe our AP had 51 receptions to Benson's 17?
