Jeanty was measured at 5'8 and change 211lbs. LT was measured 5'10 and change 221lbs... thats a bit of a difference.

I can definitely see some Kareem Hunt in Jeanty's style. Maybe he will be great but in my opinion he isn't worth a top 10 pick. I think his style could just as easily be a flop because he is an undersized power rusher.

We don't know his actual speed because he is scared it will hurt his draft stock. He also was on video saying Chicago was too cold for him and since they have Swift he didn't want to be there.

Idk, maybe he'll be great and I'll loose silly for doubting him, I'm not an expert so if Poles does pull the trigger, oh well go Jeanty... I guess.

L.T played at 215 most of his career. That's from his own mouth. People put way too much stock in a few pounds. The reality is people's weights fluctuate day to day because of water. It's nothing to see a 5LB swing on the scale.

His speed is on the tape. He has nothing to gain by running a 40. His draft stock is already solidified. He's not Gibbs fast. Not many are and in reality he doesn't need to be. He's fast enough to bust some big runs.

It’s subjective and I legitimately just went down a PFF list.

Still waiting on your top TE list

Sorry I must have missed your top TE list request, but anyway... The constant whining about me saying Warren was a reasonable target for the Bears because of his versatility and the way Ben Johnson could use him...

BEFORE the rest of the "professional" draft experts echoed the same thing in multiple mocks and now have him potentially being drafted before the Bears pick...

Says more about you and the others that keep trying to claim that I am out of my mind for the suggestion.

Plenty of top RBs run the 40, Saquon was top 5 and ran it. What makes Jeanty special? He's hiding his speed and he doesn't even want to play in the cold... I'd pass on him.

So if you are going to use the standard of average draft position of the top DT’s in the league I think it’s entirely fair for you to share the top TE’s in the league and average draft position.

Can’t wait to see the results!

The sad part is you don't even realize how ridiculous you sound, passing on a player, because he opted out of a portion of the undwear Olympics. I'm glad you're not a scout or a G.M. there are ways to track game speed now in real time and scouts have built up data bases on how those numbers compare across the nation and in the league. IF Jeanty s game speed was THAT much of a concern, he wouldn't even be in consideration for a top 15 selection. He's played in the cold plenty. You're reaching for excuses. You don't have to like the prospect, but stop the silly.

The difference, which you densely keep missing, is that Warren is a unique player that can be utilized in various creative ways.

There is no simple apples to apples comparison for hybrid players. The same goes for Jalon Walker who is basically an offball linebacker.

If I were an idiot Lions fan, I can imagine having this same argument with people like you for wanting to draft Jahmyr Gibbs at #12 (which I did)

Gibbs isn't just a RB, he is a weapon when used creatively in various facets of the game. Same goes for Warren who can run, pass, block, punt, and receive.

Stop yourself. I said I didn't think he was worth #10 because of his size and play style. The running the 40 is just a side issue.

He literally says: I'm not gonna lie, Chicago is too cold.

Can he play LT because we really need one of them. Our current TE is far more serviceable than our current LT. We need an impact player on the DL more than we need another TE at this time. I have to admit though that I did not know Warren was a punter too.

You continue to avoid the question entirely.

Is this guy gonna be better than Kittle? Better than Mark Andrews? Is he going to be as good as Brock bowers?

Why don't you just answer the initial question?

If Membou is there at 10, get him. If Poles trusts Mike Green/James Pearce off the field, I'm on board. If they believe Mykel Wright will become more than just a good run defender, no complaints....

If the HC a former TE coach decides he can build an offensive identity around the versatility of Warren in the wildcat plus a ton more 12 personnel packages like the Pats used to have... I think it will be exciting and fun and again, I'm on board.

Edit...

If he takes Jeanty I'm irritated.
If he takes Cambell I'm pissed
If he takes Banks, I'm worried.

Etc etc etc... to each their own.

If you took that as some I won't play in Chicago because it's too cold I have some used condoms I can sell you. He'll play wherever he gets drafted.

I don't take it as a Cedric Benson situation. He'll absolutely pretend it never happened and instantly say his Grandfather was a Walter Payton fan and tell us he loves Chicago.

If the Bears were to take Warren at 10, I would not like it..................but with Johnson as the HC I could understand it. He also would probably be BPA if he fell to ten.

On the plus side Warren is not just a great weapon but he is a solid blocker. By having Warren and Kmet on the field it will allow Johnson to run the hell out of the ball. Since Warren can be used in tight, in the slot or even wide you really don't have to take either one of your TEs off the field on most downs.

The Eagles were already a playoff team loaded with talent, they could afford to draft for depth. They had players like Cox and Graham who had one foot out of the door already so of course they were looking to replace them.

Jordan Davis is not a 3T that would need to share snaps with Carter who was a former teammate.

Keep trying.

You know how you get better? Draft better players at positions of high importance and high impact. The Bears have constantly been one of the most injured offensive line units no matter what they do. Doesn't matter the players no matter the coaches. So they need to add depth in the second round there. They also to upgrade the talent and youth at defensive tackle because Billings is 30 and Jarrett is 32. If you don't have depth and talent at DT you don't have a defense.

Clearly you're young opinionated and don't know football.

The guy that died on the haul hill has more bad draft takes this year. Shocking!

 

[bamainatlanta]

Chris Jones #37
Justin Madubuike #71
Quinnen Williams #3
Jalen Carter #9
Justin Simmons #19
Dexter Lawrence #17
Vita Vea #12
Daron Payne #13
Kenny Clarke #27
Javon Hargrave #89

Please stop cherry picking only the highest drafted players at the position. Even when you try the majority still fall outside of the top 10.

It's not difficult to find a good DT in the draft, and MOST are not top 10 picks meaning that unless the Bears are really good they can find another DT somewhere during the mid first round where they will be picking


@SugarWalls @bamainatlanta etc

It took Hargreaves about 6 years to become a stud. Madubuike took 4 years. There are roughly 100ish DT’s in the league and this is your list? lol thanks for proving my point

 

[bamainatlanta]

He is literally the exact same weight.

He said he weighs 310 now. Which is a couple of pounds less than last year from what I read

The bottom 3 are certainly not top 10 DTs

Well I stand corrected. Obviously he’s moving to safety now.
