April 26, 200916 yr comment_63556 This trade makes absolutely no sense at all. Atleast get some value out of a 2nd rounder! We didn't get a thing from that trade. Ahh I'm so mad right now! Yeah, I wonder if Seattle asked to move up, or the Bears were looking to move down. If Seattle was looking to move up, no way do you take that deal. If you are moving completely out of a round (19 slots), you should at least receive their 3rd this year and next. Report
April 26, 200916 yr Author comment_63558 I'm quite happy about this. It gives the Bears ammo to make some moves in this draft, plus we had a few needs and I don't think there was an impact WR sitting there. At least none that are that much better than the WR's you figure will be available in the 3rd. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63559 Angelo obviously doesn't understand the Draft. I guess he likes the idea of cutting players.. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63560 Dallas, shortly after we traded out of the 2nd, traded their 2nd for the 75th & 110th picks. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63561 i stay up till 2 qm for this\?? I just read they wanted Robiskie at that spot and a un-named defensive player, so they moved down, there board has several slotted a little lower. Report

At least none that are that much better than the WR's you figure will be available in the 3rd. More ammo to do what exactly? Honestly trading down to get lesser value and being happy about it is mindboggling. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63563 I just read they wanted Robiskie at that spot and a un-named defensive player, so they moved down, there board has several slotted a little lower. Maybe Johnson/FS/Ala falls to us at our next pick Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63564 Maybe Johnson/FS/Ala falls to us at our next pick You guys need to relax, lets see who we get first. After the top 20 players, the next 100 arent much different ,just look at where some picks were taken. Report

Agreed, we got very high selections in the 3rd & 4th. We got better value than DAL got for an almost idental trade. Lets see how it works out. Report

People here talked about taking Johnson/FS/Ala, and Inglesias/WR/OKl, with the 49th pick and both of them are still there. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63568 WTF???? Traded our second rd pick #49 to the Seahawks for their 3rd rd #68. What are we thinking? Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63569 I love the trade. The value chart is horsecrap IMO. Now, if Angelo ends up trading down again for 6th and 7th rounders, I won't be happy. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63570 There's tons of "sprinkels" and "twists" in the later rounds.... Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63571 WTF???? Traded our second rd pick #49 to the Seahawks for their 3rd rd #68. What are we thinking? It was for the 4th selection in the 3rd rd and the 4th selection in the 4th rd, giving us 2 3rds, 2 4ths, & 2 5ths. I think it was a good trade in that the players we wanted with the 2nd were gone and the players remaining we were targeting will probably still be there in the 3rd. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63581 People here talked about taking Johnson/FS/Ala, and Inglesias/WR/OKl, with the 49th pick and both of them are still there. if we got those two guy then i would be very happy with this draft to that point. Still good players on the board. Report

This morning on ESPN radio John Clayton said the Bears were officially shopping their pick. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63586 This morning on ESPN radio John Clayton said the Bears were officially shopping their pick. Then it is not as bad. I know you can't go off the draft value chart exclusively, and this may be all they could've gotten. If their guy was off the board, no reason to pick just to pick. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63590 Michael Johnson is of ridiculous value at 68. I think Rashad Johnson would be a nice pick too. My 3rd option there is probably Juaquin Iglesias. God Damn It! What a wasted day, we won't even see them make a pick today. Pretty stupid trade if you ask me. Just take that WR out of Georgia and be done with it. Why trade down? Makes no sense.. What do you mean, why trade down? To pick up more picks. Don't ever just take a guy just to take a guy. You like him so much yet you can't even remember his name. I'm happy you aren't the Bears GM. We traded down to pick up Hester. How stupid, huh? Report

We traded down to pick up Hester. How stupid, huh? Yeah I know why you trade down. My point is why do it for so little in return? Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63608 Yeah I know why you trade down. My point is why do it for so little in return? Probably because all the players they had on their board worth the pick were gone, after the "luck" factor came into play, as JA put it in the SunTimes and Trib today. They had people on their board that they graded as lower than the 49th pick, so they got some extra picks for it. We'll see what they do today and then make a final judgement. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63610 i stay up till 2 qm for this\?? Oh yeah, tell me about it. At least it was only 9pm here. What a non-event first day draft! <_> Report
