*** OFFICAIL *** 2025 Trenches Thread Current Roster, Free Agents, and now with Prospects

[bamainatlanta]

id like to see Walker back on the team next year. he is versatile and above average

in the current state of the D line, above average needs to be kept around lol

Pickens needs to be kicked to the curb. That dude has shown nothing.

Current Offensive Line Roster:
Kiran Amegadjie: The third round pick hasn't been impressive at all, but he was always going to be a developmental prospect. He's not going anywhere, so you have to hope the new staff coming in can help develop him.

Larry Borom: I would like to see him away from my football world.

Jake Curhan: See above.

Teven Jenkins: One of the bigger questions on the offensive line at the moment. When he's healthy, he's great. I heard something the other day that he's on his 6th different body part being injured. I'd like to see him stay around, but I just can't trust him to stay healthy. Whatever he signs for is going to be the most interesting IMO. Does he get the big money deal, or is he going to end up signing a shorter deal to hopefully set up the next one?

Doug Kramer: Ahh yes, the only center drafted by Ryan Poles who doesn't end up playing center. The novelty of this guy has worn off. If he's not going to be playing center then what are we doing?

Matt Pryor: I don't think he's bad, but I don't think he's a starter. He's an excellent depth piece that I imagine will be kept around.

Coleman Shelton: Started off the season horribly, but got better. I can see him staying around to add some depth to this group.

Darnell Wright: Underwhelming season, IMO. If you're going to be the #9 pick the leash on you taking that next step is tighter. Have to see more out of this guy next season.

Ryan Bates: Remember this guy? We traded a 5th round pick for him. I think Poles has tried to get him every year he's been the GM. He finally got him, and what exactly did he provide? Reminds me of Gar Forman desperately trying to get Rudy *** on the Bulls. Hard to know what to do with him because I've never seen him play.

Braxton Jones: Will end his season on IR. We'll hear from him in July about how he's worked all off-season trying to defend the bullrush, only for him to get run over by the first defensive end he sees. I know GMs love finding those late round diamonds, but he should be your swing tackle next year.

Bill Murray: If I'm being honest, after Groundhog Day his career has dropped off.

Ricky Stromberg: Color me intrigued. You had the chance to draft him, but we know how allergic Poles is to the center position. Let's see how his health is during camp (if he stays). Gives me some hope.

Bill murray definitely needs to stay. His 5 snaps were the best OL snaps all season!

Here’s an interesting guy to watch at the Shrine Bowl. We need to get a young center into the pipe. It doesn’t change the fact I’d like to see them sign Dalman. Stromberg is interesting but we’ll need to see what he looks like in camp. He’s a big question mark.

From The Athletic:

“Joshua Gray, OL, Oregon State​

A four-year starting left tackle, Gray moved inside to left guard as a sixth-year player and is expected to take reps at center during Shrine week. His build and length at 6-4, 310 always had him headed for a likely move inside, but his ability to work any position could provide serious value.

If he can show the potential to make an impact at center, his stock will soar.”

im hoping he slides in the draft like old mel kiper jr thinks he will. might make for an opportunity for the bears to take their tackle at #10 and then trade up into the back end of the first round to nab Pearce

 

[knoxville7]

Princely Umanmielen, Ole Miss (via Florida). Senior - DE/EDGE

he has a really nice hesitation move in his pass rushing arsenal. i like that patience

 

[baselman1974]

If Abdul Carter and Graham are chosen before 10., trade down to 12 with Cowpokes son they can get Jeanty. Bears get extra 2nd round pick and draft Pearce Jr.

I think Nolen or Norman-Lott in the 2nd would be real solid picks. Give me Thor Griffith on day 3 too

dont know much about Thor, but i 100% agree on Nolen and Norman-Lott...both would be excellent pick ups

Isn't Nolen projected high 1st rd?

i think maybe mid 1st round is his projected ceiling, but yeah...if hes around when the bears pick in round 2, its an obvious tanto jump on it situation

Can he jump out of a pool?

I am intrigued by David Walker. He should be around in the fifth. He’s a very short DE.

Look at his burst. Look at how he plays. I’m thinking he may be the 3tech the Bears have been looking for.

Thor Griffith may be available with our 6th. He is probably going to be a run stuffer. He apparently has some burst. I like the dude.

Well, time for a guy that's been getting talked about a lot - @Runruffshod75

Walter Nolen, DT, JR, Ole Miss

I like Josh Conerly Jr on the OT side too but I think Mike Green just destroyed his entire draft stock in one rep.

Or maybe Mike Green is just that good. I see a few beatniks claiming Green could get drafted in round 2.

I wouldn't be upset to end up with Green in round 2

Pretty good Nolan tape here.
