No, we don't have the cap space for someone that valuable. How about we use #41 or 39 to move up a few spots and draft Graham if he slips a bit? I know it's easier said than done.
LOL, no we can't leave QB out of the equation of playmakers on the team. Yes we must acknowledge terrible OLine play and coaching, and also acknowlede that the Bears have upgraded the OL and coaching this offseason.
First I never said the Cowboys or Chargers were a top 10 offense, secondly the key word I used was ARGUABLY.
You're such a cuck. Who told you that you were smart just because you think Braxton Jones and Kmet are great players that the Bears can't improve upon? Both are solid players at best. If you have anything of substance to add other than childish insults, feel free to add them.
KC was not a top 10 offense, but depending on if their other WR ends up in Jail, I think the playmakers for the Bears would be close until you add Mahomes to the equation.
Keon Coleman had 590 yards and 4 tds and that’s really good? Lmao.
As I addressed with bama... That is debatable. Ceedee Lamb & Dak Prescott alone are both much better than DJ Moore and Caleb. Dowdle and Swift is a wash. Kmet and Ferguson.. again not much difference..
That can also be said for whatever position they take at #10, and yet everyone is clamoring for DE/OT/OG & DT. The difference to me is that the Bears have just invested tremendously to the trenches and yet the majority of this board seems to think the only option for #10 is more of the same for the benefit of rotational depth.
He's was a second round rookie that didn't play the whole season, it was a good year but obviously not Ladd McConkey or Brian Thomas Jr. Are we also saying that Rome Odunze had a bad season because he only had about 750 yards?

Is that a 28, 29, 30, or 31 day month?
F ck this, Pearce can’t go to the L’sA new mock draft was released at The Athletic this morning. This time it’s by Ben Standig.
When the Bears selection came up, Membou, Jeanty, and Warren were off the board. However, Campbell and Williams were both available. Here’s what he decided was best for Chicago and San Francisco at the next two picks.
“10. Chicago Bears: Mykel Williams, Edge, Georgia
Signing free agent Dayo Odeyingbo should not preclude the Bears from pursuing an edge defender, whether they’re monitoring a Trey Hendrickson trade or dipping into this deep class. The potential wrinkle is whether new head coach Ben Johnson wants to replicate Jahmyr Gibbs’ running back electricity in Chicago.
11. San Francisco 49ers: Will Campbell, T/G, LSU
The 49ers released/traded numerous talented players or passed on re-signing free agents to clear salary-cap space with heavy losses on both lines. Campbell is considered the surest offensive lineman in the draft but with shorter-than-desired arm length. San Francisco might begin Campbell’s career at guard while developing the 2024 All-American into the eventual Trent Williams replacement at left tackle.”
Here are the picks for the rest of the division.
“23. Green Bay Packers: Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon
The Packers historically do not select wide receivers in the first round, so we honor the trend. Harmon’s forceful interior presence and pass-rushing skills are needed as Green Bay waits for other recent first-round linemen to improve.
28. Detroit Lions: James Pearce Jr., Edge, Tennessee
Whether an end or tackle, the Lions look for defensive line depth. The 6-5 Pearce’s athleticism (his 1.56 time in the 10-yard split led all defensive ends at the combine) and college production (17 1/2 sacks and 28 tackles for loss since 2023) are worthy of top-20 status. Football character questions seemingly have raised enough eyebrows to drop Pearce into potentially the late first-round range.
34. *Minnesota Vikings (via Giants): Tyler Booker, G, Alabama
The Vikings (four picks before moving back) should be the team most aggressively looking for a trade-down. They miss out on Zabel yet still draft arguably the best interior offensive lineman. Booker, a two-year starter for the Crimson Tide, was frequently projected among the top 15 before a rough combine.”
All the teams in arguably the best division in football go trenches.
NFL 2025 mock draft: Shedeur Sanders goes early, Giants add second first-round pick
Which QB-needy team takes a chance on Sanders? And where does RB Ashton Jeanty go in the first round?
That’s true, but the Bears genuinely do need to replace guys on the OL/DL. I don’t think Billings has a lot of time and I don’t think we can rely on Dayo. Those are easy targets for competition. On the OL, Braxton is going to be another. I think all of these guys are relatively average in the eyes of the league. Average guys deserve competition. On the flip side of it, DJ is one of the highest paid WRs, and Kmet is one of the highest paid TEs (both top 10 in total value of contract, both higher end draft choices). Rome was a top 10 pick a year ago. Those guys all have reason for people to believe are core pieces to this team for the next years. Their money and draft collateral say so. That’s not to say they’re invincible though. If Ben doesn’t want one or likes someone else more, then they may go ahead and make a move to replace them. My guess is they’re all good enough for Ben to keep for at least a year and make his own judgment before even thinking about bringing in high end competition for them.
He’s the second best de in draft doubt he falls like that
So we are just listing anybody as weapons then, huh?
