Same. Trade up thoughts disgusted me

Well I was half right. He was the 3rd OT taken, and i have him rated first. We will see how Campbell and Banks do in the next couple years to know. Membou will end up like Davis did for us - probably a guard, who's heart isnt in it - thats my prediction.

We'll know in 2 years LOL

I'm not sure the Bears would have took Banks if available. Loveland was a surprise pick but clearly they had him rated high with several high rated players on the board. I think it comes down to they think more of Braxton and Kiran than most people think.

AZ was right Banks went top 10 . The third OT but still highly rated. 

PHX....maybe too right since he went before us.

Phx was spot on regarding Banks. The top 9 went awful for the Bears. 

The look on Poles' face when everyone stood up to applaud was priceless... "this draft sucks".

If we end up with Ersery, I will survive it LOL

It also came down to the fact the top 3 OTs were all selected before us.  

Something that is making me laugh is that Justin Fields just got Membou LOL I have the same opinion of both.

We will never know, but I expect to see the Bears move up and draft Conerly using a 3rd or future pick.

I like Ersery better, but yeah. And also Simmons is out there if you can wait for him to heal.

Yeah I would love one of those 3. Simmons is my preference but happy with any of them at 39. 

This is interesting. Eric Galko is the director of operations for the East-West Shrine Bowl. And he also founded Optimum Scouting just tweeted this:

If Simmons is the player he was in college by week 5 then HELL yes. I might even take that guy over Banks! But I dont know how to value the injury.

I would be fine trading up a few picks as well - than just move down from our next 2nd a bit to recoup.

How about Tyliak Williams for our next pick?

yeah he's a good player. this is one of the names that kept coming up in as available in my mocks on various sites in the second round, along with Landon Jackson, Malakai Starks and Nic Scourton. Good quality for the 2nd round if hes still there.

And please an LT in there too (praying to Halas and Payton)

 

Several LTs still available, for me they are drafting a LT for 2 yrs from now,not this year. They are going to let the Braxton/ Kiran competition okay out. 

Easy to criticize now but let's let the draft play out. They are still going to draft a LT 

Players I still want: 

Josh Conerly 

Aireontae Ersery 

Josh Simmons 

Gary Zabel 

Marcus Mbow 

Charles Grant 

Anthony Belton

Zabel already went, but those are all good names, but i dont think the bottom of it under Simmons are necessarily better than Amagadje? Theyre good later picks for depth and development, but they arent gonna start right away. I like all those names up top tho.

I expect them to trade back with 39 or 41 to get more capital. The next 3 picks need to be LT, DE and RB, whatever order that gets the best value. Later rounds will get a LB, S and DT.

Conerly or Ersery are the only 2 I think are capable of starting in their first year. Let's see who they get. Simmons could end up being the best LT in the draft but have to see how his injury plays out.

Yeah if Simmons will be back by week 5 or something, that changes everything.
