Reports came out that Graham asked for tape of every single throw made by a Bears QB to a TE for the last 2 years so he could get a jump in analyzing the scheme. Said his knee is feeling as good as it was since 4-5 years ago.
He may contribute, he may not. But at least he seems like a professional who is willing to put in the work. Unlike Shaheen, who is probably bummed that he can’t attend the local amateur MMA events while this virus thing is going on.

I once saw Tom Brady juke Urlacher out of his shoes. Lach sucked at tackling. Just watch the play

Except in this case this Graham play was indicative of his general shittiness at blocking. The Urclacher play by contrast was not.
Hence why we also discussed his blocking grades earlier. They were not good.
I also certainly wouldnt claim that it was not a terrible play by Urlacher when it clearly was. He should be embarrased about that play just as Graham should be embarrassed he got decleated by a guy 50 pounds lighter than he is.

It would be wonderful if everything he says comes to pass. At least saying and doing all the right things right now.

Whether it has just started or not, what were the other options? (And I say that as a Graham doubter)
Olsen had already signed since he was released, not a FA. Ebron is not looking like the better option.

"I'm still fast. ... I still have the ability to make big plays," Graham said during a conference call with Chicago media.
Green Bay released Graham on March 12.
"Obviously, it was a tough pill to swallow," Graham said. " But for me, it's lit a fire.
"I know what player I am and I know what I can do. I think I was able to show a little bit of that in the playoffs with some of the opportunities I was given. And after being 10 years in, I've only missed six games.

Graham at the very least carries himself like a professional. Willing to put in the work and not scared of the big stage. Cannot say the same about Shaheen and Burton at this point.

Hooper was the main attraction, not sure why you are saying ebron might not be the better option and then Blake jarwin was around along with Tyler Eifert.

Point being is there were several options available, the bears just signed Graham straight out the gate
