After FA my thoughts about some of the teams positions are as follows. I believe that Mike Glennon may be better than people are giving him credit... I think he will be a solid QB for the team... but a QB still needs to be drafted. Im not going to prioritize WR over other positions at this point, trusting that what we have including K. White will be enough to get the job done. However, a receiving TE is another Story. Positions to target during draft: QB, S, TE, WR, Edge rusher.. however in first two or three rounds team can't ignore overwhelming BPA if he's sitting there. But my positions of greatest need are QB, S, TE.
1st
Keeping with the philosophy that a team should draft BPA taking position of need into account...
1. S - Jamal Adams - 6' / 214 - LSU - natural leader, one of the best safety prospects in years, almost can't miss
2. QB - Deshone Kizer - 6'4" / 234 - Notre Dame - great arm, has all the tools, needs grooming but great upside
Trade down scenario. If another team had a hard on for a player other than Adams or Kizer and wants a trade... then the team must consider it.
After a trade down team I would also consider drafting.
3. QB - Deshaun Watson - 6'2" / 221 - Clemson - Versatile play maker. Plays big on big stage. Accuracy issues.
4. FS - Malik Hooker - 6'1" / 206 - Ohio State - Arguably best safety prospect in years.
5. TE - O.J Howard - 6'6" / 251 - Alabama - Best TE in a good class of TEs.
2nd
This choice may be influenced by the choice of the first pick as well as available player as previously stated.
1. QB - Patrick Mahommes - 6'3" / 229 - Texas Tech. - probably best arm in draft, needs to develop in pro style offense, some mechanic issues
2. FS - Budda Baker - 5'10" / 195 - Washington - Fast and instinctive center fielder. Size may be an issue. Potential to play CB/Nickle back.
3. S - Obi Melifonwu - 6'4" / 219 - Connecticut - Physical freak. Fast to the ball more so than instinctive reactions.
4. TE - Evan Engram - 6'3" / 234 - Ole Miss. - versatile. H back type tight end. could line up as WR, TE or HB. Size is a concern for blocking.
3rd
1. TE - Adam Shaheen - 6'6" / 278 - Ashland - Powerful frame. Receiving threat. Needs to improve blocking.
2. QB - Davis Webb - 6'5" /229 - California - Good touch on throws. Operates well in the pocket. Needs to learn pro style offense.
3. FS - Marcus Williams - 6'1" / 202 - Utah - Ball hawking type FS. Plays instinctively. Lacks physicality.
4. TE - Bucky Hodges - 6'6" / 257 - Virginia Tech - Still learning position. Could develop into solid pass catching TE.
4th
1.DE - Tanoh Kpassagno - 6'7" / 289 - Villanova - Big body and long frame. Needs work.
2. CB - Howard Wilson - 6'1" / 184 - Houston - limited experience. could develop and be late round steal.
5th - 7th
Look at positions for depth esp at OLB, OL and DL
- I would be pissed if the Bears took a player with injury history(CB-Latimore / DL-J. Allen) or a potential one hit wonder like Trubisky with the #3 pick. - - The only edges Adams has over Hooker IMO are due to injury and I believe that Adams has better leadership qualities.
- I want the team to draft a good prospect at QB and let him sit for a year or two.
- My preferences as far as QBs are Kizer, Mahommes then Watson and Webb.
- I hope QB and safety would be addressed by the first two picks followed by TE.
