Official NFL Draft Thread - Bear Fans Only - Loveland - Number 2 Scheme Fit

[Myk]

Im on board with taking OL or DL with any one of the picks, I'm not on board with passing up players that are upgrades over the current starter just because of perceived positional value.

Positional value is such a hole that opens BPA up to all the problems with BPA not ever being about BPA but personal bias.

This Vegas odds shift is interesting. Bears all of a sudden the favorite to draft Jeanty. If it happens I’m going to hope like hell he is Walter Payton v2!

Him looking nothing like Payton is what failed to convince me.
You could see Payton making people miss. In his own way the same with Hester's returns, you could see it happen while he was making people miss.
I just can't see it with Jeanty. He's obviously good but I can't see why.

I won't be happy if we trade up for him but mainly because it's a trade up. If we get him at any spot it will be interesting to watch for sure. I'll also enjoy making a deeper dive into his college films.

I dont like it. But I'll be disappointed about them doing it and thrilled to have jeanty at the same time. But seriously, I hope they don't do it

Depends what they give up. If they give up 1 of the 2 second rounders and get back a 4th, it won't be that bad.

It will give me more ammo to hate on poles would love the move!

We’ve gone round and round.

Who’s your guy at 10 excluding Hunter and Carter? It’s draft day MFers!

I still want Kelvin Banks Jr.

Graham if he is there, Banks if he is not.

How i feel when i hear the rumors and the draft odds rising for us to take jeanty

View attachment 45268

Legit hope its all smoke and they just stick at #10 and do the smart thing by taking an OL/DL

I have a plethora of reasons not to, but on principle alone, I’m not letting the guy who got the job over my buddy, Ian, bend me over.

Seems like the other way around is more likely

No it won't. It will merely affirm what we already know about Ryan Poles. When Poles had a guy he does stupid things. Claypool Davis Bates Leatherwood Johnson time and time again Poles develops a man crush on a football player and sets the Bears back.

Apparently, once we get within 12 hours of the draft, everyone gets really really upset at the GM for something he hasn’t done yet. There are conflicting rumors being thrown around by the so-called insiders and it seems CCS is picking the one that upsets them the most and getting mad at polls over that. Even though nothing has happened yet.

I have no problem being upset with the GM after the pic if you don’t like it. But it seems like people get upset about rumors, and they never stop being upset about it. They will simply refer to it as “the mistake he almost made last year“ instead of realizing it was a rumor that wasn’t true.

The fact that a running back is being considered in the top 5 is compounded by how he ran all over a poor conference full of guys who won't be playing in the NFL. What's more is that he's not particularly big and not particularly explosive either. What's more than that is when you look at all the top 10 RB draft picks in the last 10 years, none have really translated to team success for the team that drafted the guy.

Trading up for that could end easily be a big disaster, especially when you're a team that's struggled to build the trenches. For as much work as we did there, all you need is another Billings injury and one to Thuney or Dalman and you're in a bad way yet again. For christ's sake, #trenches

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but a trending rumor is Jaxson Dart at 9. There may be a run on these shitty QBs! That is the best case scenario for the Bears.

This is a very dramatic take. The only one of those moves that really “set the bears back” was Claypool. Davis was a dud but hardly set them back…Bates cost a 5th and is currently their backup C who could also play OG, assuming he’s healthy.
