Poles was supposedly asked about if they would look to try D.Wright at LT and he said something like it's something they would look at or some shyt like that so maybe Membou is in play for us at #10 if he's there.
He was just asked if he could play there and Poles said yes. I wouldn’t read anything into it. It wasn’t like Poles was suggesting it

Yea, I like Membou a lot. I think he's easily the best combo of floor and ceiling.

His critics say he is lazy. I get Nate Davis vibes I don’t think the Bears can take that kind of risk. Banks fits the mentality they are looking for if they go OT I believe he will be the pick even if Membou is on the board.

Oh okay. The way it was said on here in the post i read was more how i said it in my post. My bad for believing a post on CCS.

I didn't actually see the video or whatever of Poles saying what he said.

9.) The Bears have been linked to Jeanty for weeks, and they are hoping they can snag him at 10.

If you listen to CCS they are
Not necessarily saying you are the problem but what all these people asking "why draft connerly if he is the same as Braxton Jones" is very obviously because Braxton Jones is due a new contract.

If you could tell me that they could keep Braxton Jones on essentially a 1st round deal for another 4-5 years I'd be okay with keeping him. This is not reality though.

I'd rather take membou and try him at LT. He has all the traits to be a good LT.

Reminds me of when wirfs was in the draft and they weren't sure if he could play LT

a DJ comp..

One other notable move is Missouri's Armand Membou overtaking LSU's Will Campbell as my top offensive tackle in the class. I still believe it's highly likely Campbell will be the first offensive tackle drafted on Thursday. The change is more of a statement about my belief in the upside of Membou. The more I watch him, the more I see some similarities to a player I was around during my time scouting for the Philadelphia Eagles, Jason Peters.

I would say who cares about the contract if the player has earned it. Braxton hasn’t earned a thing. I would love to replace just don’t see it happening this year

For sure I agree, but we have seen this off season guys that didn't earn it getting huge pay days on the OL, specifically at left tackle.

Braxton is probably going to get PAID by someone if he can show he is even similar to how he has been before this injury. I am not so optimistic its even gonna work out for him this year, and that is the main reason I would look to get someone in rounds 1-3 to play tackle.

I've come around to the idea it would be okay to draft banks at 10 because if he would deserve a chance to compete and play LT, and if it really doesn't work out for him he projects better than the rest of the tackles this class to play guard, and he would likely end up playing a fair portion of this year at either tackle or guard.

That being said I agree with you, I hope they take a talented DL as there are quite a few of them there this year. IDK why the media isn't talking it up more, but all the chatter seems to be about Jeanty and Tyler Warren which I really don't see it for either of these players as elite prospects.

I'm still holding out hope for Nolen, jalon walker (likely gone), or Mike green

That is quite a lofty comparison.
