Official NFL Draft Thread - Bear Fans Only - and No Montucky!

Ok but they're 1-2 injuries from having a shitty QB, or shitty RB, or shitty secondary, or shitty DL, or shitty receivers. You don't draft for depth at 10. You're looking for the biggest impact player, not someone for in case there's an injury.

That said, I don't think Warren will have a big impact, but like others have said, if Little Ben wants him then he must have a plan.

If they’re taking OL at 10 it isn’t for depth. It’s to be the long term LT

My almost two weeks out hot take is this:

One of Banks or Conerly gets drafted ahead of Campbell. And Membou is OT1.

I do think Banks and Conerly will go higher than people expect.

2025 NFL Mock Draft: Giants land Travis Hunter, Browns secure a QB with a trade

Shedeur Sanders and Jaxson Dart find their way into the first round of this 2025 NFL mock draft.

Haha. It’s silly season officially

The Bears aren't that desperate for an edge. The points check out, but the Bears are looking to find multiple starters in the draft. Three for one in 2025 is rough. The only way I see them trade up for Carter is if he falls and the price comes down. Even then, I don't think the Bears would be in the market to move up. They won't pay a premium to go to No. 2 though.

I agree, I was just responding to the point made. If it's OL I won't complain, but I'm hoping for DL.

#2 most accurate mock drafter over the last 5 seasons

The world is really going to let Carter and Pearce play together?! F us all…

Some folks enjoy individual wins, some folks prefer to root for future wins. It's just how people are built, one isn't really right and the other wrong. It's sort of a big picture, little picture thing, we need both viewpoints.

I'm a big picture guy. I would trade a meaningless win in the hope that it leads to multiple future wins, but that's just me.

One less meaningless win and Aaron Donald is a Bear, things like that. But to each their own.

I’d take him in the late 2nd over taking any TE in the 1st.

How bout early 3rd, like pick #72?

 

[DefNextYear]

Can't see a dominant run defending DT with undeveloped pass rushing skills taken that high.
I covered the Green/Pearce dismal by not qualifying for the boy scouts.
Warren is a definite possibility based on grade but not necessarily need.

Yea, I know... but the mock has him at 13, so Grant is in the ballpark. I rather get Tyliek in the 2nd due to value, but I guess I don't know if he'll be there. I'd actually be happy with a number of DTs generally, but not sure any are great picks at 10. I'd even be tempted by Nolen actually.

Pics of Dexter are coming in and he's slim downed quite a bit. Could they move him to DE?

Sure looks like it. Defensive tackle is definitely in play for the first three picks at least

I would love for Mason Graham to fall to #10. Sweat, Dexter, Graham, Jarret, Dayo, and Billings?

Yes, please.

He did say he's down to 310, all the way from his listed weight of 312!

 

[legendxofxlink]

Dexter played edge some in ‘23 after the Sweat trade annd excelled. Pretty sure he got a sack at edge. Not sure why Flus quit doing that…. I want to see all 4 guys move around to create mismatches.

Dexter has always been a tall and slim DT though. He’s no fatty

He should probably fat up though so he can stop the run occasionally

Pics can be deceiving. I've only seen one pic. He'd have to lose a considerable amount of weight to get to a good enough weight to be effective and consistent at edge I think.

 

[oso4lyf]

This looks like more than 2 pounds.

He needs to get better but I really doubt he will ever be great at it. Poles is probably hoping he turns into a poor mans Chris Jones who was PFF’s #1 rated pass rushing DT but 36th against the run. They have similar builds and Jones sack total blew up his 3rd season

(I am not saying GD is CJ)
