Actual teams almost never are. I posted before Jeremiah's old board, which had Kincaid at 9. He went nowhere near that. Some guys have Mayer high that year. Almost every year, there's a blue chip caliber TE that doesn't go as high as the media is pushing. And for the record, not a knock on Jeremiah, he's probably my favorite former scout/draft guy.
And Kincaid has been a disappointment. Mayer just couldn’t keep his “nose” clean

Who will people blame Poles or Ben Johnson if they bust?
I guess the people that still think Poles is the last voice on personnel will be mad at him and the people who think it's now the Ben Johnson show and he has final word will maybe blame him or they'll spin to still blame Poles.

I would never think of it. As Samuel Langhorne Clemens once said:

Also... waiting on what great horror I should expect may result from CW's GQ interview.

Agreed. But reaching at 10 if it comes to that is not preferable to adding a blue chip player elsewhere if available.
What would you call a reach at 10 when the talent level between 10 to 20 is all about same?

I think people give too much credit to coaches for drafting players. It’s not a coach’s responsibility to do that. I can imagine there may be a preference on a player, where Ben's input is critical in shifting players slots on a board, but it’s not like Ben would override Poles and force him to pick a player Poles would otherwise think is a bust. That would be stupid of a coach and overconfident. The reverse is true too, where Poles shouldn't pick a guy the coach doesn't want at all and believes isn't a fit. So that said, Poles owns the roster, for better or worse. Poles picks the players he believes his coaches can utilize and maximize.

I am going to be angry with who they pick at 10.....I just know it...
On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the angriest and 10 being the most pleased, how would you feel about each of these selections if the Bears took them at 10:

1. Will Campbell
2. Armand Membou
3. Kelvin Banks
4. Ashton Jeanty
5. Omarion Hampton
6. Tyler Warren
7. Colston Loveland
8. Mason Graham
9. Derrick Harmon
10. Walter Nolen
11. Will Johnson
12. Jahdae Barron
13. Jalon Walker
14. Mykel Williams
15. James Pierce
16. Mike Green
17. Shemar Stewart

<list>
11 - Graham
10 - Campbell, Menbou, Jenty
9 - Warren, Walker
5 - Johnson
0 - everyone else

At #10, you take top-10 talent. This isn't complicated...

What makes Campbell and Membou top 10 talents, but not Banks? I’m not trying to argue. Just curious.
