Trading an IOL was not on my Bears bingo card.  

LOL yup

It's amazing the transformation.  We have three former IOL playing for the dolphins.  And three more that could be traded in Bates, Kramer and Feeney.  Finally, depth!

we have definitely addressed the OL this offseason! We still need to look at LT, and Im sure we will look again at OL next year too, but it's good that we are finally taking it seriously. We should be able to run the ball this year.

Now if we could only get a pass rush...

Dayo’s problem IMHO is that he is weak.  His arms fold up at first contact and his body always bows backwards.  No core strength.  He has quickness and speed but little bend and can’t marry it up with any power.

he looks big and bulky to me, like you said, no bend, he might be able to set the edge, but i dont see him getting around anyone on a pass rush. This is a real problem.

They are talking about McFadden, not Newman.

I bought his name up for the reason they are trying to trade McFadden. AZ understood the post but of course, you have to question every word I print.

Lots of pundits nervous because of only two healthy RBs. First I think they know the health  of Monangai , RJ, and Homer enough to cut some of their RBs. I thought Wheeler looked good but they must like Britt Brown better. I think they will bring Wheeler back to the PS but maybe another teams cut may be more desirable than him. I think they will add some names not already on the team. I doubt they will be any LTs of value cut because of the importance of the position but DE may have some talent available. 

Britt Brown looked okay , what is your opinion?

Cam Akers got cut, anyone like him?

Pickens cut

[Stinger226]

Damien Martinez/RB is getting cut by Seahawks. I kinda wanted us to draft him.

Him and Dexter came in at the same time. Dexter reformed his body and has gotten better. Pickens had some nagging injuries and blah. You never know what's in the hearts of players.

Me too but he’s similar to Monangai and he had conditioning issues at times in college.

Jurko was killing Dayo yesterday.  Said he might have the worst stance he's ever seen.  I had to look at film and decide for myself and it's complicated.  Jurko was talking about how spread out the stance is and that the only way he can go is directly forward.  In Dayo's defense, I saw it only when he was out wide.  When in a position to quickly engage the OL, Dayo tightened it up.

So many things I wanted to say but it would just fuel this feud and I would prefer it to stop. 

[Stinger226]

We are only going with 3 RBs so I would expect us to claim someone. A Bears pundit brought up something I didnt think about but are we going to see DJ Moore getting 50 rushing carries this year?

Surprised they kept Chris Williams, Hardy and Robinson, I didnt think they all would make the cut. 

Im glad Jahdae Walker made the roster. 

The only thing I am concerned about is the health of JJ, I think LT and DE will end up being okay whoever emerges as the dogs. 

I wish one of the young guys made it instead of Johnathan Owens, I didnt think he played well last year.

 

[BearFan PHX]

Here it is as of today. Notably, we only have 3 HBs. We let Brittain Brown go, and didnt trade for Robinson when he was available for a 6th round pick. That tells me we are looking to pick someone up on waivers or even make a trade.

I like to think we will make a move on the D line too, but i have no evidence for it other than the poor play.
