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

[Xplosive]

The Lions already had the best OL in the division and needed more help on D. The LB pick was stupid as hell. The Bears still need work on the OL and DL. The Lions offense would not have been what it was without their very solid OL. I want trenches in 2 of their 3 top picks and the order does not matter to me. I do not want RB or TE at #10.

You.Dont.Know.If.The.DL.&.OL.Is.Good.Yet

They have 5, literally FIVE new starters in total in the trenches. The problem is that everyone thinks they are an expert and therfore they are assuming that Dayo and Jackson in particular aren't good enough.

The OL and DL might be great with new players and new coaches. Why must we absolutely draft more trenches with the top 2 or 3 picks?

How about we acknowledge that they have invested in the trenches already more than in generations this free agency, allow for the possibility that things will be much better and let the GM find more playmakers for a team that barely has any stars and absolutely no superstars on the roster.

It's silly to say DON'T draft any trenches players, which I'm not saying. But the Bears can literally draft any position they want early in the draft (outside of QB/Kicker) and it will make sense IF they believe they are getting a playmaker or upgrading a position of weakness.

Just pointing out that they built out from the trenches first.

The Bears have as well. Wright, Jones, Jackson, Thuney, Dalman, Sweat, Dayo, Dexter, Jarrett

That's a really solid group with potential for a lot of improvement

Branch was a mid 2nd rounder. Jack Campbell hasn’t worked out.

Got it. I thought either Branch or LaPorta were late first but Laporta was #34 and Branch #45.

Bullshit, Jack Campbell was excellent last year, better than the LB your paying top dollar for.

It was inevitable that they would at minimum meet with him. I would honestly lose a lot of hope for this team if they took Shemar at #10.

If Jack Campbell was a blanket, he couldn’t cover a twin sized bed. He sucks.

I expect that to be the pick. Poles can’t resist that RAS.

If it happens I will officially be in the dickripper hall of fame.

Hey **** nut, get out of this thread. I don’t want your bullshit polluting the discussion.

I don’t give a flying **** about the Lions or anything you might post.

Please be wrong about this!

Not sure if this was posted… feeling less and less likely he’s a Bear.

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.

People keep comparing him to bigger backs like Ezekiel Elliot as opposed to Emmitt Smith. I've always thought every back is rather unique but if I'm going to use a well known back as reference...

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.

Jeanty's been clocked at over 22 mph and can squat over 600 lbs. At what point do you just let the film do the talking? I'm not advocating at 10 here but nothing he did or didn't do at his pro day would change my mind.
