One bad game and he is a bust? I hate this place sometimes. How do you not know if he's been double covered or another reason.

Did I say bust?

Not a first round talent. Not close.

I’m sorry, but if Roquan Smith is on the board at 8, I think I gotta take him. BPA.

The more I watch him play, the more he looks like the beast we thought Floyd would be (although Floyd has been very good).

One of these guys being touted as first rounders will be there in the 2nd. Too much value at edge or o-line to go wideout... At eight, they might have their pick of o-linemen.

It's better than paying Paul Richardson or Sammy Watkins 8-10 mil a year. I'd rather have Calvin Ridley a WR drafted early.

I want Richardson in Chicago. No reason the Bears can’t grab 2 FA WRs and draft pick.

Likely route that Pace will have to go. Especially if he finally gives up on White (mercifully for us)

He's at best a #2 WR in the NFL.

He has a drop and a couple of other blunders in this game too, has not been his best game.

Sony Michel is a player the Bears should consider late--looks like the next Kareem Hunt.

Bama in Atlanta is so fitting for this game. But seriously, Michel is nothing like hunt. Maybe Kamara with that speed.

Correct, they are built differently but both complete backs--Howard will have to develop as a receiving back as well in Nagy's system.
Unless it turns out that he'll several backs like Pederson does in Philly (Clement, Ajayi, Blount, etc.)

I was down there today, businesses in the city are bummed that it was 2 local teams--Bama fans don't stay and the Georgia fans all live in the metro area. Killed hotel/restaurant business. One thing I did learn is not to take pictures of the SWAT/ Secret Service when they are awaiting deployment--they will stop you and ask who you are.

If the bears draft a RB they should be shot.

Howard will never be a reliable receiver.

Didn't watch the game.... was he good tonight? I wouldn't be opposed to a stud LB.

I have never been sold on Ridley. There is really no wideout worthy of a top 10 pick this year but if we have to force the pick, I prefer Christian Kirk - very good hands, very fluid, makes acrobatic catches and has excellent speed.

Do you think he is worth 7-10 million when he's only had one good year and that was 700 yards?

Cameron Meredith is better than Paul Richardson. If you think Cam Meredith is worth 10 mil a year you're crazy.

Always draft BPA.

If he thinks Courtland Sutton is as good as AJ Green pull the trigger Pace.

That is what they said about the QB's last year Trubisky & Watson really proved people wrong.
