I will say this, if Bennett gets traded for something good, like help on defense, White will be a better pick than it is now.
yes this opens up a Bennett trade for sure we shall see

The Bears give themselves an out to suck and that's why they took the best of many worlds.

1st: Offensive weapon gives them a 1 year reprieve for the D sucking so it is easier for the public to swallow.

2nd: they get a young playmaker with top 10 talent that will be here for a long time while they build the defense and grow a new QB.

3rd: They give an outlet to Cutler to allow him to get rid of balls early. White should be open earlier and has good jump ball abilities.

Will the also still grow the man?

Lose Marshall, replace him with white, then get rid of Bennett because they got white?

yeah I could see it get more defense line help or oline help or even a rb yes Bennett has no guaranteed money and has value.

are people more upset with the white pick or the fact that the Jets took our guy one pick ahead of us? I dont think this message board would be the same had Williams gone 3rd or 4th overall.... We took the BPA, there nothing wrong with that. We filled needs in FA so who was on the board that you would have preferred over White that wouldnt have been a reach at 7? i think the bears made the right move

Yeah, if they are butt hurt at Bennett. Trade up to get some defensive help.

Pretty sure people are upset at trading a pro bowl wr, then drafting a wr.

Pace gave away Marshall and got nothing in return. What a bonehead move. Imagine our offense with Forte, Bennett, Jeffery, Marshall, and White.

I love the pick but Pace still has a lot of work to do.

Are you this dumb, or are you kidding?

There is no chance Marshall and White would have ever been on the roster together.

Still has a lot of work to do? Really? he took over a massive rebuild, and didn't complete it by the first day of the draft??

You think Pace had any choice in trading Marshall? The ownership wanted him gone and other teams would have known it and offered squat for him. When your boss tells you to do something you do it, pretty simple. White was the best player on the board at 7.

I'm shocked that a team would unload an old, expensive player with a chronic hip coming off his worst pro season and use a draft pick to replace him. Shocked I tell you!
Why would you be shocked that the Bears traded away a probowl WR for nothing and gambled on a rookie who could be a bust like the majority of rookies are / will be ? That's been the Bears formula for failure for more than a decade now.

If they didn't trade Brandon Marshall, jets would've needed a WR and the bears would've had Leonard Williams.

Or they would of still taken the BPA in Williams.

Your sarcasm would be justified if the bears weren't coming off the 2 worst defensive performances of their 95 year history.

BPA, Pace called it months ago and stuck to his gun, i can appreciate that.. Marshall is gone, no sense looking back. We got one of the top rated guys on most boards in White, Lets just hope we go NT, ILB in the following rounds.. Phillips and McKinney would be ideal
