I think two potential dark horses are Tampa and the Giants.

Well appreciate the feedback. Just seems like a perfect fit for a #9 pick. I also think that drafting a DE at 9 is more of a sure thing than a WR at 9, and every year amazed at how many later round picks turn out to be star WRs.

They’re switching to a Fangio defense so I imagine they will be moving anyone he doesn’t feel fits the new scheme.
Also they may be getting value while they can? Better to trade a year early than a year late.

Yeah it just seems like those are 3 very similar players. Maybe Huff is more of a 3 down OLB? Idk

Huff is basically Reddick as a pass rusher, but doesn't do anything else nearly as well.

Claypool was basically an addition for the opposing defense

Not against drafting defense with the pick if the top 3wrs and top 2 lt are off the board. I’m not really impressed with the defensive players this year in the draft

That's fair. Although we don't know if the Bears like all of the big 3 receivers. Because the Bears have sucked the last few years we are experiencing something new, these consistent great draft picks, plus the trade down last year. This is fun and everything but hope that the Bears off season is a lot less exciting in the years ahead.

Apparently there is some thought that Nolan Smith would be the next man up?

This would be something. Three Sweats on the D line

Since the bears hosted Byard can we let this stupid age narrative that poles won’t sign a 30 year old die?

He’s 30 and a two time first team all pro. He would look good on a two year deal.
Adding him and possibly a rookie with one of the 4th round picks might work out well.

I like Tvondre Sweat an awful lot if the Bears can grab a 2nd round pick from Fields or a #9 tradedown. He pairs really well with the current Bears DT group - hes good at the things Dexter isnt and would relieve Pickens of backup NT duties on obvious run downs with upside to be a special player. Wouldnt interfere with drafting WR in the 1st either which is a big plus.

I get that but why would they big players in FA for a pass rusher then? they would trade two guys they already have and then spend big for a similar type player? Kinda weird.

Yeah, I don't disagree. It seems strange.

Still a lot of talented WR's in the third or later. I would also be fine with Ridley in free agency.

I need to be fair to Limmer too. Here he dumps Sweat on his fat ass.
