Just wait until he drafts Mason Graham! I have read on this very board that he sucks and sucks some more.

I’d be fine with graham, although not to the extent as others might be.

Concur.

And LT at Texas Christian. Not exactly a football powerhouse

Left Tackle?

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Ask him “who is Tyler Murray?”

I can’t. He blocked my 6th account today.

 

[Wild_x_Card]

Marshall Faulk too

Matt Forte Chris Johnson etc, I could write a small novel of guys who's talent was evident but happened to pick on future accountants and insurance salesman.

LT is a risky pick because they already have a young developmental player there. Once they extend Thuney the interior OL will be blocked for the next couple years.

That makes Campbell and Banks even more risky options because they both could be forced inside to guard. DE is also tricky because Sweat's likely here for at least the next two years and Dayo plays a lot of snaps.

Adding a quality LT is never “risky.” Not having enough talented players on the lines is risky.

Campbell and Banks are expected to play tackle. Even those acknowledging that there's a chance they may need to move inside are very high on their future there, and Campbell has even been mentioned as a possibility at Center.

"Risky" is the last word I would use to describe them as prospects.

If you mean simply that it's a "risk" that the Bears would have terrific depth and flexibility, then I suppose that's true.

Using #10 on a guy who would be a backup immediately or would definitely only be IOL is one thing. But they both are likely to stick at T, and IOL would not be a bad thing and that's worst case scenario.

Swifty calling out the click bait tweeters.

Seeing as how I parlayed banks and mykel to go in the top 10, I like this draft lol

 

[DefNextYear]

I hope you are right because I think if they pass, there's a chance he makes it to 10. If I were taking an offensive weapon and were them, it'd be jeanty

Yea we’ll see. If I’m Poles though, I couldn’t live with some random clip of “we were prepared to take Tet at 5, but got an offer to move down and still got our guy”. Maybe if I’m getting a QB, LT, or Edge, but not for a RB. That kills my resume.

Oh I wouldn’t trade up for jeanty. I just think Jax taking him may be legit.

I refuse to believe Green and Nolen slip out of the 1st.

 

[Discus fish salesman]

I refuse to believe Green and Nolen slip out of the 1st.

Overall I think DJs mock is pretty terrible

 

[knoxville7]

I refuse to believe Green and Nolen slip out of the 1st.

Agreed, Pearce as well. Can’t buy all 3 slipping out of the 1st

You're painting a very rosy picture. Campbell has been consistently labeled as lacking the arm length needed to play LT. Banks has been consistently viewed as having poor balance and athleticism as well as lacking awareness in pass protection. Banks is clearly listed as an OG by Dane Brugler and others.

Risky is gambling a high draft pick on a prospect that may need to be shifted to a new position and hoping he will perform well there.

Yea, I got you. I just mean I’d live with them taking Jeanty vs paying a premium to move up. There’s enough reason for me to call the bluff. If it’s not a bluff, I’m sure good decisions with the picks the Bears have will still outweigh what the Jags wanted. I can live with losing him.

Shit… him too?! lol… no way all 3 don’t go in the first. That’s a bit much.
