Except for the morons at CCS.

We got a guy coming off a blown ankle, we're good.
Healthy Amegadjie would have been a 2nd rounder in this draft. Taking another 2nd round type talent instead of giving him more than a 2 game audition doesn't make much sense.

McShay put out his final board
Holy Shit that's high for Tyler Warren @ #4. Meanwhile I literally just watched a Mcshay saying Aireonte would be the 2nd best LT in this draft... Yet there he is #6 OT in his final rankings.

Ok.

Hopefully Ben Johnson doesn't agree with your nonsense.

I can’t believe the number of Bears fans that are suggesting trading up for Jeanty.
The FOMO is out of control with Jeanty. Honestly, has anyone ever been this hyped? I see Broncos fans hoping to move up from 20. That's just absurd. I could maybe buy a Bears move if we were talking a weak draft for RBs, but the fact that we can land a great RB in the 2nd or 3rd is a bit of a head scratcher.

The Bears would have to be absolutely desperate to move to 5. I think Jeanty will be a good player, but I also think others will be pretty good. I figure I rather have Mason/Membou and Judkins/Kaleb than just Jeanty. Hell, maybe I just wait til round 3 for Skattebo/Giddens/Harvey. But if Poles/Ben decide they need Jeanty, I'm calling the bluffs at 5 and 6. I'm not moving up til 7 at the earliest. I'm not advocating a trade, but more so just saying I really can't accept a move to 6 or higher. But... I'm also pretty convinced a good player will fall to the Bears at 10.

I will just put it on and see what happens. The experts said there were no good DEs last year, the GMs evidently as well.

Trade up, trade back, stay at 10, OL, Edge, RB, TE, corner, safety, we've all seen it all. The only thing to be sure of, the draft will not go the way people think, because everyone is saying something different.

The Bears themselves? Or mock draft guessers?
I don't know if Ben said Jeanty by name, I have to expect they don't want to tip their hand, but he talked about RB in round one, etc. We'll know in a few days what is rumor, and what is BS, and what is true. I know they want to get a RB for sure, as our RB room was towards the bottom of the NFL last year.

I heard him mention the other day that he had McMillan at number 50
Yea... 50 is kind of silly I think. The guy is over 6'-4" and had some clock him at high 4.4s. Brugler has him at 12 and Jeremiah is at 15. It's fine to be lower, but 50?!

I saw the clip in which McShay mentioned it, but I did not catch any more detail as to why he had him so much lower than everyone else did. It may have been posted here.

I don’t want Kaleb Johnson. He doesn’t have any speed and he’s not particularly shifty and yet he seems to think that he is. He won’t be terrible but he won’t be a difference maker.

And I don’t want Skattebo even in the third.
