I am just hoping someone falls into our laps at #15/16.

Who has more of an impact on a game with so few touches?

Yes, here is the breakdown: 9. DEN (6-9, SoS #11) 10. CIN (7-9, SoS #27) 11. NO (7-9, SoS #24) 12. CAR (7-9, SoS #22) 13. BUF (7-9, SoS #9) 14. DET (7-9, SoS #7) 15. CHI (7-9, SoS #2) 16. ARZ (7-8, SoS #30) 17. HOU (8-8, SoS #17) 18. PHI (8-8, SoS #1) Now ARZ is interesting. If they lose, they go from #16 to #10, and possibly #9 with a DEN win.

He should even get a vote or two for MVP. He has the biggest impact on a game in the NFL. Screw Brady, he would not be half the QB without the OL and Moss/Welker.

I hope not. A little late I hope.

Depending on the Arizona game, the Bears will draft 15th or 16th. 15th with an Arizona win, and 16th with an Arizona loss.

Manning looked great, but once again, when he is pressured, he gets flustered. That fumble and 3 and out followed by the INT sealed it for NE. Also, the Moss TD was silly. Everyone knew they were going right back to him, yet he was single covered by a Safety with a bad hamstring?

Ugh, Manning really choked in the 2nd half. 2 minute offense burns 3 minutes off the clock - classic.

You needed a choice for "Giants because I hate NE/Boston"

Giants up 21-16 at Half. Manning actually looked solid on the TD drive right before the half. It will be interesting to see when the teams start resting their starters.

From Rotoworld: Martz has always been a great offense guy. Would there be any shot at the Bears getting him? Would we want him? Did he and Lovie get along in STL?

Yeah Bush not playing is disappointing, because I would love the Bears to get some hard hits on him.

Wow, 7 for Long. Pix, I completely agree. If anything, we trade down and add a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

I would say right off the bat, with the players returning from injury, the Bears are a 8/9 win team next year. If the Bears can solidify the OLine, that will probably give them 2 more wins as long as the Offense gets on track. I can see a Bears team winning as many as 11 next year, with a low of 7 depending on how everything falls into play this offseason.

I tried to include most of the top picks, even though most would be out of reach for the Bears with their current position. Which player would be the biggest upgrade over the current player? McFadden over Benson? Ryan over Grossman? Dorsey over DT2 rotation? Long/Clady over Miller? Sweed over Berrian? 10 choices was the max, so there may be other players that are not listed.

For Moose, how much would the cap hit be if we cut him? After June 1st?

Urlacher at OLB? That would take pressure off his chronic back?

I know it is early, but would it be possible to pin a 2008 NFL Draft thread/sub-forum so we can start dumping stuff like this in there?

Barnett was clearly wrong with his after the play antics. The Ref had every right to get him off the pile. Bears 2, Packers 0 Refs 1, Barnett 0

Smart move. Just let him get healed up for next season. No point in risking further injury. I too am wanting to see Hass at least get some chances.

Np, that is the site I use for odds words.

They said the game is now on 3 networks. It would be hilarious if it was a brutally bad game with NE losing.

Some classics there.

With the Crayton signing: How much more will it take to keep Berrian?
