Hyatt makes the worst threads

The best part of this thread is the bears signed two right guards.

Prob not a good idea to move a 20m+ pro bowl player to the left side, also probably not a good idea to move a career RG in Zeitler to LG at age 35.

I do have an uneasy feeling tho that if they miss out on smith(which I expect), that the bears get zeitler on a cheaper 1 year deal while the lions sign tev to a 3 year 36m contract and he stays healthy and performs really well for them. Unlike dumbo poles their GM would slot him in at RG where he's best.

Any draft that includes Jeanty as a Bear is a bust, just the worst possible idea under the circumstances.

It honestly would not shock me if jeanty just flat out busted in the NFL(Maybe not that far, but if he's not even the best back in this class). A lot of the teams he beat up on this year were some of the worst run defenses in all of NCAA.

I still think he will be a great player but its not someone you take at #10 when your team is full of holes.

I'm not really for drafting a RB high but you can easily talk me into someone like kaleb johnson if he drops to #72.

I don't see Jeanty translating to the next level like these draft gurus do.

Maybe, maybe not. Its especially difficult to judge a mountain west conference RB because the players he's facing just cant tackle well. That wont happen in the NFL against most teams.

Then again, just because he played in the MWC doesnt mean he cant be good. Urlacher proved that for us.

Just think at #10 the risk is way too high. Only team i think is willing to even draft him that high are the cowboys, otherwise he may drop into the late teens or 20's.

Has nothing to do with where he played for me. Just think he'll be good and not special. Could be wrong.

I've been back and forth on Teven a lot... but I'm now pretty firm on wanting him to stay, hopefully not breaking the bank. He plays at a high level, when he actually plays. For the price, you can pay Teven and Pryor and have higher level play for 75% of the time and Pryor fills the gap with ok play.

I do think we'll regret letting Teven go and then end up staying healthy... and being a top guard.
