If he is as good as some of us think, it’s hard to imagine him getting past Harbaugh at 22.

I do t think he lasts until 22, and definitely isn’t making it to the 2nd round.

@knoxville7 thoughts on Lott??

Guy is an impact player from the interior that can mess up an O line game plan.

Honestly, Tennessee had 3 DT’s last year that were all quality players and helped collapse the pocket so a guy like Pearce can thrive on the outside with 1 on 1’s

Those 3 DT’s are Norman Lott, Elijah Simmons(a mammoth NT that eats up blocks and stuffs a run game a lot like Billings), and Omari Thomas who was a team captain and kind of a blend of Norman Lott and Simmons

Norman Lott will be the first of the 3 drafted. Not sure where Thomas goes, and Simmons is likely a 6th/7th rounder as that 1 trick pony stuffing the middle.

As far as highlight plays go, Norman Lott is your guy

2025 NFL mock draft: Shedeur Sanders to Steelers, Tyler Warren lands with Commanders in 'what I would do' mock

Sanders landing in Pittsburgh would be perfect for his development in the NFL

I've heard rumors that Chris Trapasso has a sketchy hard drive.

It may limit the O a bit but whomever is here will get TE help if needed. Unfortunately, we have no Idea what Kiran can actually accomplish right now since he had zero camp or leg work before the season. He should be much stronger and hopefully be able to use those 36+" arms this year.

Right or wrong, I don't expect a T early this year since that was why poles took Kiran where he did last year. He was projecting him to 2025/6 and hoping to not need him last year.

and also have Thuney next to him rather than the guard de jour in 2024.
He may not even have to play as Braxton supposedly is right on schedule.
Imo, someone like Ersery on day 2 seems more likely.

Are he and Dane Brugler the same person?

 

[DanielCCSBears]

And by “fix the lines” do you mean deaft a RT and acquire three new interior offensive linemen?

Or draft a LT to block for a lesser RB?

There's no fucking depth on the offensive line. The offensive line isn't fixed until there's adequate depth. Same thing on defense. The Bears don't have a complimentary edge rusher. They don't have depth and they have two defensive tackles on the wrong side of 30.

wouldn't mind the top 3, though I'd rather have Judkins. Probably take a DL at 72.

Good reason to go DL in 1. T's are young. Develop some interior OL guys.

People want to go RB because of what the Eagles did, but they forget about moves like drafting and sitting Jurgens for a year to develop. OL is the long term play and it requires patience.

2025 NFL Draft: Five potential surprise first-rounders

 

[alswank87]

I’d be happy with Graham, Campbell, Membou, Banks, Jeanty, Warren, or Simmons (hopefully after a trade back) in round 1.

Don't see that much hate here for him here. I see a lot more of that for Kiran and his 36+" arms.

People want to go RB because Jeanty is a top 3-5 player in the draft and he’d be BPA at a position of need. He’d be a major weapon for BJ and what he wants to do, and unfortunately, it’s a weak OT class. There are no elite level NFL LTs that will be there at 10. I don’t think there’s an elite LT in the entire draft, tbh. Prob a few average/slightly above average starters, but not an upgrade from what the bears currently have.

Its almost a guarantee that your offensive line wont play a full 17 games.

If thuney gets hurt and braxton isnt the same you are back to watching caleb get sacked every drive

So you don’t think any of these tackles will have better careers than Braxton or Kiran? Guess we shall see in a few years.

I do trust Roushar at least.

I know that and I agree with that and I posted that about a dozen times!

I am talking about at number 10.

I am very much in agreement with adding depth to the offensive line. I am always ok with that. I am not going to be upset if they draft a tackle at number 10. I am responding to the notion that only tackle at 10 should be considered.

Murray looked good in his short stint and Bates is solid... if he can play.
