And the NFL is reworking some of the race based policies too i think, so I hope we will still get those picks when Cunningham gets a GM job.

I know it is statistically not realistic, but people are calling for huge years for Burden and Odunze. Moore and Kmet are fairly consistent, and that doesn't even include Loveland. I really think this offense is poised to crush franchise records.

even with a mediocre output from this group, records should be broken, which says two things; our roster is pretty good and Bears offensive records are pretty weak.

Both are true, I think maybe it will take one year but we could be a top 5 offense in the league. Of course that solely rests on Caleb's shoulders, if he is the projected franchise QB, oh boy will this be fun.

We were all like wtf, but this dude is going to be a monster.  He has the right attitude to climb to the top.  All the additions made this year make me much more excited to see what else this staff can find to insure they take the North and never give it back.

This is another year where we got the chance to glean from various organizational scouting resources.  Hopefully, the cream will rise in our favor...

I was completely shocked when his name popped up in the 4th round. No Combine or Senior Bowl invite but the more you know about him, his interviews are great and 4.39 speed for a MLB. People were saying probably a UDFA but clearly a few teams had him on their radar. His first year will be at SLB but he will earn more and more playing time as the year goes on. He could be the reason Edmunds leaves after this year.( could pick up 15 mil in cap space) Then maybe Edmunds shines under DA so we have a great problem of to many good LBers. 

Productive in college

mature work ethic

High football IQ

burning speed 4.39 

I watched every highlight I could find on him and the best thing I see on tape is when teams go to the outside zones he runs people down with ease. I think the scouts do a great job of identifing good talent. Everyone has the best players on their radar but Hyppolite, Zak Frazier , Luke Newman and Monangai could be all future starters and wasnt given much hype.

Greg usually makes sense when he speaks but I dont agree with this. Even though he has 2 yrs of suitable money, dont want to trade that high of a pick. Now most would say our window for making a SB run would be 26-27 and he would fit in that window. What this put us over the top for this year? Giantts have Dexter Lawence, Brian Burns they are paying big money to and Carter as their draft pick so this could be a reality of them wanting to move him.

This falls into the wait and see department.  If this team were to really take off and look like a legit playoff contender then I'd be ok adding someone like Thibodeux mid-season.   Even though he'd make us better I wouldn't do this now because there are too many questions about roster makeup to give away future draft capital.  I don't even know if Caleb is the QB of the future yet.

well said. unless someone comes loose from some really bad contract holdouts and we get an obvious DEAL, we probably won't be upgrading starter positions until we know what we currently have. But I wouldnt be surprised at all if we are active at the trade deadline.

Any time you have a new coach, a lot of guys are possible trade bait. Some will grow into the new situation, and some will go. That's always what happens with new coaches.

And as much as we have seemingly filled a LOT of holes in the past two years, that also means a lot is new, and isn't proven yet. For example, we all seem to be sure the OL is fixed, but until we see it on the field, who really knows. Players could be past their prime, lazy (see Davis), or just unable to gel. I'm not predicting that of course, but it is unknown.

We will know more as each month passes. And that's very exciting. But I think what you've said here is probably how Poles is feeling too.
