April 26, 201312 yr comment_120821 Pure BPA is retarded. What if Geno falls to the Packers? Do they draft him? He'll no. It's stupid. BPA has to be balanced with need. Drafting on only one of those reasons is a guaranteed failure. Report

Need is too. The need at OL was much greater than anywhere else. #1 need and #3 value is better, IMHO, than a lessened need with slightly better value. Report

Also, Emery said they were targeting Long, which seems like they liked him the best out of the players that were available at 20. Technically just because he was selected at 20, doesn't mean that is where his value had to be. It only had to be from 20-49, which is about right where Long would've fell into. So Emery drafted someone who was not going to be there at 50. How about Pugh at 19, or Manuel before Smith and Barkley. Floyd was projected as high as #2 and goes in the 20's. Report

April 26, 201312 yr comment_120908 Reading everything on on all the sites, it seems that most scouts had Long at 26 best in this draft, he went 20 , not a reach anymore. his senior bowl was very good and what sold him on the Bears Report
April 26, 201312 yr comment_120913 If the list posted by Adam is accurate we didn't even have a private workout with Kyle Long. Keeping it all close to the vest again. Reid Fragel – OT – Ohio State Travis Frederick – OC – Wisconsin Edmond Kugbila – OG – Valdosta State Justin Pugh – OT/OG – Syracuse Brian Schwenke – OC – California -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I take that back. Listening to his conference call with the media he did visit with the Bears and said he felt pretty good about the Bears after he was done speaking with Kromer. Report
