Nah Pettis gets the final WR spot over St Brown. VJJ has value as a kick returner and as a gadget guy.

No googling, who had a better passer rating and QBR last year? Mac Jones or Justin Fields?

The difference is Hockensen could have helped you guys make the playoffs. All Quan would have done is ruin our chances of getting the first pick.

Colombo had a horrific (freak) knee injury but was an effective pro when he left Chicago.

OK but the Bears have seen enough of all pro players at positions other than QB.
Fields has potential let's just see how the year plays out no?

Last season Jenkins played in 13 games and started 11 and ended up excelling at a position (RG) that he had never played before. I would say he consistently played at a high level last year.
Marc Colombo had a solid career mostly with the Cowboys. The only thing similar between Colombo and Jenkins was losing most of their rookie years to injury. Jenkins was a back injury and Colombo suffered a dislocated kneecap and damaged his femoral nerve, which at the time appeared to be a career ender. I give Colombo a ton of credit for coming back from that injury and playing 3+ years for the Bears and 6+ years for the Cowboys and Dolphins.

So you are saying the Lions offense struggled after Hock left?
Interestingly enough, the facts do not support this opinion.

Detroit traded Hockenson and 2 4ths for a 2nd and a 3rd, then used a much more valuable 2nd rnd pick for a much lesser prospect.
Draft value chart wise they used more draft capitol than they received with both of those picks just to replace TJ with a lesser regarded LaPorta plus gave up 2 additional 4ths.
The Bears on the other hand replaced RS with less costly better scheme fit Edmonds, and added a Grevon Dexter and Sewell .
Trade player A and and spend more draft capitol to replace him with a much lesser regarded prospect
or
Trade player B and replace him with a comparable player for less money and add 2 possible long term starters.
Hmmmmmm, I'm a fan of adding better players while not giving up more draft picks, but that is just me.

Almost all of your argument is pure bullshit.
‘The best player I ever coached’: Sam LaPorta looks to uphold Hawkeyes’ TEU legacy
Iowa does the tight end thing pretty well — maybe the best. You know the names: Clark, Kittle, Fant and Hockenson. Now it’s time to meet the next great Iowa tight end — Sam LaPort…

Iowa's coach says LaPorta is the best TE he has ever coached. For the record, both Kittle and Hock also came from Iowa. Also, the pick used on LaPorta was draft capital gained by trading down in the first.
Saying the Bears replaced 'Quan with a less costly replacement in Edmund's is laughable, because you fail to address the cost savings of LaPorta over Hock. What a fucking dipshit.

He has Ebner making the team over Homer. I doubt that happens if there are no injuries to consider.
After camp last year, Ebner had zero burst.
He has ESB over Pettis for the 6th receiver spot. I think it will be Pettis.

No you cant read. An offense can be good and still stand to be better. Hock left after 7 games and still finished as the Lions leading receiver at TE. He had 395 yards in 7 games. Wright had 216 in 17. He finished with 914 yards receiving which is 700 yards more than Wright.
The Lions know they missed him because they went out and drafted a TE. So yes his 914 yards receiving could have helped because your other TEs were ass.

No one gives a shit what the Iowa coach said. Hock was a 1st round pick and LaPorta was not. By your own logic that you have used in here before Hock was the better prospect because he was drafted higher.
So until proven otherwise they replaced Hock with a less prospect drafted a round later than Hock.

I’d guess Fields because Jones was dog shit last year.

Bears didn't trade Smith in division. That is why people mock the Lions.

Who got benched at one point last year, Fields or Jones? Hint...they both played in that game.

Fields' QBR this last season was better than Jones' rookie year.
Yet somehow Fields is the worst passer ever according to some.
