The best pick for the Bears in this draft would be the Panthers getting a chubby for Richardson. McCown may be able to coach the shit out of him, but it won't be in year 1 or 2.

Would any QB really matter? Dalton prob plays the majority of the year anyways. He's not a good QB but should be better than any rookie they put in :(

I was hoping for a top 5 pick next year but based on how bad their division is and how talented their D is they should probably finish in the 8-12 range

If the Lions don’t take a QB and don’ take Carter, the Bears won’t draft him.

But if they do, and Carter slips to 9, people need to accept there is a high chance he will be a Bear. I’d be all for it.

Yep, they are going to have packages for Velus no matter what. I don't think he was ever going to be a guy you run out there for 90% of snaps, but he's going to have packages and plays designed for him.
so when he does trot out on the field, everyone will know the play is going to him......

There is a good chance velus isn't even on the final 53.

They already have 4 guys who are 100% making the team. Get one more rookie and that makes 5.

He isn't even good on special teams, so not sure what his value would be. Ebner and him should both be cut barring some major improvements in camp.

You'd have to think that Poles would move Mooney or Claypool in that case. And most likely Mooney bc he probably has more value than Claypool (or not).
Plus JSN will play slot vs Mooney so you still need an outside guy

Who am I missing after Mooney, Moore and Claypool?

ESB is easier to cut than VJJ.

St brown knows the playbook, is an excellent blocker, and can also play ST's.

Velus does nothing well at this point of his career. He's also the same age as st brown. I see no upside of keeping velus around as a bottom end wr, there is upside to keeping st brown tho in the run game.

Velus is also only 8 months younger than St brown.

That was just honestly a terrible pick
