Unfortunately, by the end of the season most NFL players are struggling with hamstring problems. There are a couple of reasons. One, is it is hard to keep the hamstrings in balance with the quadriceps muscles. Most, power athletes love to build their quads, it helps them lift more weight and makes the legs look strong. The hamstrings need to be strong enough to balance the actions of the quads. But, hamstrings are longer which makes it harder to build enough mass to stabilize the quads. Tender hamstrings suck for a power atlete, but it comes with the territory. Rome Odunze, now has the benefit of world class medicine and rehab services, a young healthy guy should repair quickly.
Is that how Gaines Adams died?

Jeez. Reading comprehension isn't in your repertoire I see. I opened with a general front office comment and mentioned this goes back at least 10 years then went on to list several draft picks that were pre-injured and concluded with Poles sucks. Nowhere did I say Poles drafted every player on the list.

Real question. Why didn't Kevin Warner step in and stop this nonsense of drafting players with injuries that hasn't worked for the Bears in at least a decade? Thought he was the guy to bring professionalism and business smarts to the bears? He can't even decide where he wants his new stadium 😂😂😂

Keep coping though!

Not only are there injured guys but also out of position guys. Whitehair center or guard? Teven jenkums tackle? Guard? Brian urlacher a safety or linebacker? Justin fields a qb or RB? This year bears used the 9th overall pick on the 2nd best TE available, AND he’s injured.

This is the first week of organized activities. Plenty of time for Caleb to tweak something that was already bothering him.

This organization loves to ignore injury reports going into the draft and it's really no surprise they suck every year.
It’s amazing they don’t review the medicals. I always look at medicals when scouting and watching tape

Was not aware that Rome had injury reports going into the draft. I could only find a broken rib. And, besides, so he freaked a hammy. I wouldn't worry…..yet.

OP apparently has never played organized sports. You're always banged up and sore. You are the reason I hate coming to these boards because a little hammy tweak and you start a thread like the guy lost a leg. Go away OP and never post again. /fucking drama queen.
Completely disagree. OP is one of the best posters here and he brings outside of the box topics/discussions to this board. And i know him personally, he was one hell of an athlete. Please do not assume anything because he points out the GM always drafts injured players. Thanks.

So Poles screwed up and drafted the next Kevin White because Odunze has a sore hamstring in OTA’s and they don‘t want to do anything to slow it from healing, never mind the 13 games he played last season in college. It’s friggin OTA’s, who cares SMH
Now, now you aren't buying this false narrative at least as it applies to Poles? Good man.

Who the heck is this? Either he didn't last long or I'm getting old.
3rd round pick out of Oregon St. SS that was injured before the draft and never played a game with the Bears. 2013 draft I believe.

Rome wasn't built in a day, it was about 9 months. It wasn't over when the Gremins bombed Pearl Harbor and it ain't over with a sore hammy. That hammy not gonna do us any good sitting here whining about it. We're in a hole. We're just going to have to dig ourselves out.

@Chief Walking Stick has broken my nose 3x in mma training irl. He knows what it is like to get banged up as well. Once I put him in a figure four leg lock and made him scream like a little girl when he wouldn't tap out.

How high was the pitch? Did he cry harder than Payton after the SB?
