Pixote

25 (56) Green Bay Packers (From Browns) - Pixote With the 56th selection GBP select Brandon Flowers CB On the clock: 26 (57) Miami Dolphins (From Chargers)- Drunkbomber

Again, I am heading to work in about 30 minutes. Will not be back until after 7 pm. GB will be on the board by then. In order of preference, please select one of the following. If the 2nd GB pick should come up by then, use the same list. 1- CB Brandon Flowers 2- QB John David Booty 3- S DaJuan Morgan 4- TE John Carlson 5- DT Pat Sima This way I will not hold up the draft process. Thanks.

Thanks balta

Guys, I will be headed to work soon, will not be back until appx 7 pm. TB will be on the clock long before then so what I would like to do is leave my selection now so when Balta selects for the Redskins he can also enter mine for me. TB needs QB, CB, & DT. QB cab be had in 3rd or 4th. I want CB first (Lee) and if he is taken DT second (Sims) So in order of preference: Patrick Lee CB Auburn Pat Sims DT Auburn Thanks

Yes, NO to QB or any defensive player in the 1st, I can see RB, would prefer OLT

I agree , no need to trade up IMO. There will be many great players that would be excellent selections available at 14 without giving up a pick to move up. If anything, I see us moving down if we got a decent offer.

Completed through 2nd rd 17-48 Justin King CB Penn St

Thanks. What concerns me even more is I am beginning to get the feeling something is going on with my left ear now, my only good ear of the two. If I lose the hearing in that one also, I am in serious trouble as far as my job and would be financially shot. My damn insurance pays virtually nothing unless I go to an in network provider. The only specialist in network couldn't see me for 6 weeks from my initial call. Depending what is found and what the treatment required is, the only way I can afford it would be to use the in network provider. 4 days remaining......................... and counting.

Minnesota needs to get a QB to develop because quite frankly, they are in worse shape at QB than we are. Minnesota selects: André Woodson QB Kentucky Next up: 17 (48) Atlanta Falcons (From Texans) - Ashkum Bear

I love to hear this type of story. I think it is important for players on professional teams in all sports to give back to the communities they are involved in and this is one example of a great move by several Bear's players

Good read, thanks....

If I am not tied up with followup work by my otologist visit on Friday, I will be in the BearsTalk Chat Forum just about the entire draft (a few breaks here and there). I hope to see as many of you as possible so we can bitch and complain about the draft, LOL. Should be fun, especially if we can get enough posters to chime in.

Detroit selects Chris Johnson RB East Carolina Next up: 15 (46) Cincinnati Bengals - Fenom283

No reason to apologize. We have been slow getting a chat room up here. Not your fault.

I posted this in the pinned thread. I sent emails to an admin about this but no response so I will post link here: Bearstalk.com Chat Room Still works, we need not to go running to another forum to use their chat room when we already have our own. For some reason it just has not been linked on this site. Maybe my email system is malfunctioning? Maybe a spam filter is snagging my communications? I do not know, but it is frustrating.

You know, there is a simple solution to this problem of a chat room for this site. I had a chat room set up, hosted not by sportsinfinity.com, but by bravenet. It was not a bad setup. It still works. It is free. It is ours to use. Nothing needs to be setup. Nothing needs to be uploaded, downloaded, modified, edited. All we need is to use it. Pretty simple huh? BEARSTALK CHAT ROOM Why is it necessary to go to another forum to use their chat room when we already have one, all we need to do is get the dang link on this site so we can use it!! Anyone know how to add this link to the top of the page??? I hate to see us rely on another forum to use their chat room when we already have one to use.

So, while we wait for Hester to select the Bear's 2nd rd selection, any guesses as to how the Bears will go? Will the Bears go WR, OL, RB, QB, S, DT, ????? About this time next week we will know all the picks for the Bears 2008 Draft. My guess is most of the posters are going to be pissed saying Angelo blew the draft because he did not select the players they wanted. Happens EVERY YEAR. Should be interesting for sure.

As much as I would like to commit to a meeting with you to watch the draft, I am a bit reluctant as I have a doctors visit this Friday, the day before the draft, which MIGHT, not certain, require followup tests and or treatment over the weekend. I have lost (guessing here) 90% of my hearing in my right ear and my regular physician believes there is something behind the ear drum causing the problem, exactly what we are not sure. I have to see a specialist Friday and see where the tests performed lead. I would most certainly be interest in getting together with others for some games, be it preseason, season, or hopefully post season contests with the Bears!!

Under the banner at the top of the page click on my controls. Click on edit signature on left side of page. Just above the box where you enter you signature you will see buttons for various functions, just like when you post. When you hold your cursor over each button it tells you what that option will do. Directly to the right of the insert link button is the button for insert image. Click on it. You will have a box pop up near the top of your screen. Paste the link for your image into this box. Save your signature. That should do it for you. If you have further trouble just let me know and I will address whatever problems you are having at that time. Sure hope this helps, I am anxious to see your new sig,

Thanks Mad Man GB needs a backup to Rodgers, but they will not put pressure on him by drafting a QB in the 1st rd GB has 2 aging starters at CB and need some youth, but I am not thrilled with what is left GB needs a TE to stretch the field, but none left are worth a 1st rd selection GB has two aging OTs who have had injury problems and a QB that has already proven to be fragil. Therefore, GBP selects Chris Williams OT Vanderbilt - a great value at pick #30 Next up - 31 New York Giants - NeoBear

Yes, I like Delvin Thomas also. The only question mark I see with Kelly is his speed. I am not one to take a lot of stock in times ran in shorts and sprinter shoes. I think he has enough speed to go along with his atheticism to make an immediate contribution to Tampa Bay's offense. However, he could also turn out to be another Mike Williams. (I think the kid has a good work ethic and attitude so I do not envision this.)

Tampa Bay as I see them: CB – lost Kelly, lots of age and no depth, a definite need WR – Galloway is 37, Clayton & Hilliard have not been able to give them the big plays, Bryant signed but may not be the answer they need. QB – Garcia had an excellent season, but how much longer can he play or stay healthy? DL – They really have no one to put pressure on the QB OL – Like many teams, the OL needs upgrading LB – Another aging group – it is time to start thinking about bringing in some fresh blood. Depending which website you visit, an argument could be made for any of the 6 position needs listed. The 3 that shows up on just about every team needs list are CB, WR, & DL. Of those 3 positions, and knowing Gruden, I suspect WR will be the selection as CB & DL have been picked over more than WR. So which WR? Sweed, Kelly, Jackson, ???? Again opinions very greatly from site to site. I know Sweed & Jackson are rated higher than Kelly by NFL Countdown but other sites actually have Kelly rated the #1 WR. I think Kelly is more polished and NFL ready than any other WR available, great size, hands, good route runner, good blocker, Tampa Bay selects Malcom Kelly, WR, Oklahoma Balta & the Washington Redskins are on the clock.........
