1. Coaching Staff. Hands down...

1.(a) Recieving Group - is the biggest strength... ( Jeffery, White, Forte, Bennett, Royal, and Wilson )

2. LB's ( Young, Allen, Houston, McPhee, Foster, Jones )

3. RB's ( Forte, Langford, Carey )

Honerable mention...

DL , I think that unit is going to pretty stout, with McDonald, Jenkins, Ratliff, Goldman, and Ego.


The safety position is better already than last year, Rolle may be on the downside of his career but he should still be a major upgrade at the FS spot, and Mundy seems to be at least serviceable. He'll get us by til we can draft his long term replacement next year as we did with Rolle this year ( Amos )

There is no reason this Bears team should not have as good a chance as any to win the division next year. Superbowl worthy? anything can happen but i'd wouldnt call them a favorite, but with this coaching staff and overall talent on the roster I wouldnt rule them out either.

The offense would appear to be pretty solid on paper, but that assumes the new offense works with the personnel and the Oline can stay pretty healthy. The Defense will be the key if they can contain the running game for a change and put the opposing offenses in 3rd and long situations. I have no clue what to expect on special teams.

Just reading your thoughts and then reading TheHawk's just makes me shake my head how people can have such different opinions.

Ask me this question after another draft and offseason.

Very few real strengths now. Even though I'm excited about White I'm not going to count on a rookie. I guess RB maybe but the guys behind Forte aren't tested much. we do have two good guards. Not ready to call anything on D a strength. TE is OK as long as Marty doesn't talk his way out of town.

Pass catchers. Probably have 5 guys on the roster capable of catching 80 balls.

Hopefully early into the season it will be our offensive line and run game.

Our pass catchers are good.

Our RB group is deep.

Those are the only units I would say I am comfortable with.

I think it's safe to say that cleanup from hurricane Phil is ongoing. That clown is the worse thing to happen to the Bears since Mike Brown started with the leg injuries.

It's amazing the hatred that Phil Emery receives from some on this board.

Our strength will be our 2016 draft position.

I didn't realize that Omelet wasn't a fan of John Fox. Huh.
