Scheme fit? Good RAS score?

yep. But who knows, maybe that's part of Herberts game that he's working on.Both can’t pass block or catch well out of the backfield. Still need to draft a RB in the middle rounds
LOVE to hear this from WR4!
Don't ever call me a dumb ass!!!!Well, we were already well past it until you brought it up again, dumbass.
Seriously! No need to state the obviousDon't ever call me a dumb ass!!!!
He needs to be WR5. Hoping Poles gets a mid-round receiver.LOVE to hear this from WR4!
Hopefully, WR 6 by the end of the off season…LOVE to hear this from WR4!
Stein is the one negotiating the deals and drawing up the contracts. Not solely but he has real influence. Poles called him out yesterday as being a great mentor for Poles.Stein is an Angelo guy, right? Is that Craig Cabriel is always praising him?
Cliff Stein is obviously an invaluable piece of the FO, but let's not pretend he's the one grinding the tape.
Fair enough.Let's agree to disagree on the top part - that's just going to suck us back up into the same shit, and I'm here to talk football.
The rest, I get your perspective. Honestly I agree with a lot of it, and really want the Bears to land a tackle somewhere between FA, trade and the draft for me to really feel good about the offensive line, and I think with QB being the most important position in football, that the offensive line is the second most important, since you need to protect that investment, and none on the line more important than LT to protect your QB's blind side.
I think where I fall is that I think its too early for people to get histrionic over it, but I acknowledge the legitimate concern.
For the draft, I think they are targeting that kid from Northwestern to be their 3 tech, thinking that he will be an early to mid second rounder. My hope is that they trade down, add a pick in that range, and then pick up that tackle they really need in round 1, and that 3 tech in round 2. Then they likely go HAM on Edge rushers, also picking up a RB and a center somewhere in there as well.
Based on what Poles said, I think the interior is set unless it was a smoke screen - It's going to be a combo of Jenkins, the new guy they signed, and whomever wins in the battle between Whitehair and Patrick.
As far as the linebackers go, I think they made the move for 2 reasons - the first is he is still young and could end up being a core piece if he pans out, and 2, the Bears have to spend a cap minimum going into next season as well, which is why I think the contract was heavily front-loaded. They were so far under, they need to overspend a little to hit that minimum, especially since Poles doesn't want to lock into any long term, boat anchor contracts.
So, sure, it was high, but this is a bit of a weird year, so I am looking the other way on that one, otherwise, I'd agree with you.

Whilst he's dropping 4th down passeszLOVE to hear this from WR4!

im fine with him at 4. I would love to get another player ahead of him but im just happy that they're actually fielding a WR corp resembling something respectable. Im hoping they can get enough out of Claypool so they can trade him at the deadline. Take your loss. Still holding out hope for Marv next year because thats bonkers.Hopefully, WR 6 by the end of the off season…
With two firsts next year, being able to maneuver for MHJ seems like it might be a real possibility. I’m with you, that would be bonkers.im fine with him at 4.

Couldn’t shotgun snap for shit?Can someone refresh my old man memory: Why did we end up moving Whitehair away from C in the first place?
****, I’m going off memory here. It had something to do with Trubisky and Whitehair and the ball that Whitehair delivered. He used a “dead ball” technique. So, there were a lot of fumbles between Trubisky and Whitehair allegedly due to the way he snapped the ball.Can someone refresh my old man memory: Why did we end up moving Whitehair away from C in the first place?
Dude is lucky he is younger than me because our High School team always kicked McHenrys ass! I would have stomped all over him….or probably yelling from the sidelines because I was always injured.
