I completely expect that we will draft top 10. Plus, Quinn will be traded for picks eventually.

It's an exercise to see what we could do when our GM acquires picks in the future vs the picks we have.

This is simply a "what if" draft. You can use any teams' picks. Mine is, what if we had the Jets draft picks? BTW - I would die happy...

He's expected to learn and grow this year. With a stronger OL and solid running game Fields should make what he has better. The draft will yield us talent for the future. Please don't think we are going to be good this year. Poles is is truly going to use the three year plan. Rebuild, excite then dominate!

Completely agree. You only make a trade like that if you are in great depth and cap space. After that, you must be in the Superbowl window.

The crazy part is, experts were projecting him to get 22 mil per year. 15 mil per year will be a bargain if he plays 80% of the games. It's highly unlikely though.

Poles has put everyone one notice! Everyone is getting evaluated this season. He's not afraid to trade, release, cut or simply just let you leave. I would not be surprised to see Eddie Jackson released by mid season if he fails to complete plays.

Amen, amen and amen! This is what I've been waiting for for years. We've failed to learn from historical things, like the pyramids, that stand the test of time. All built on a solid foundation. I'm looking to get a custom Bears tee or jersey with Poles name on the back. I love this guy and pray he succeeds!

I would be ecstatic with seven wins. And we still don't have a Left tackle on the roster.

Totally agree. It is said that his projected salary will be 23 mil. That is too much for a team trying to build.

I'm not sure what consists of a rebuild, but this is what I believe it is. When you are talking about 4 new receivers, 5 OL, trading your best player, cutting dead weight, adding new DL, etc. When in doubt, follow the money. We go into this season with the highest dead cap in the NFL. That tells that it's not about this year.

Not sure I agree that it was a mistake. You watch a guys film and see that he's good, then other guys tell you whether he's a good dude or not. Then the agent says, "he's ready to roll at X date". Poles says, "it's all contingent on his physical with our guys". Agents lie, cheat and steal to get deals for their guys. Poles did his job. Did he miss on a player? Yes. But, it didn't cost us a thing. That's good work.

Well done Poles! I love that he cuts bait and moves on.

This is why Fields must show significant growth this year. Next year we are in great cap shape and have picks. That is where we will see the next step. This year, we will take our lumps and see what the plan is. Hopefully, next year we will contend for a playoff spot. After that, the window should be open. The key is developing the OL and if Justin is the real deal. I still wish we could have done all of this last year, but I'm willing to wait now that it is happening.

Same with Ju Ju. He's not necessarily a cancer, but he's a clown.

100% What I like about these guys, is that they will both play special teams and block in the run game. Byrd and Goodwin were both one trick ponies.

I like Landry a lot. He does the dirty work inside, blocks, throws, and runs.

I like how this one turned out.

Julio used to be a monster. Can he stay healthy though? If he can, it might be worth a shot. My guess is that he wants to go somewhere he can win for less money...

I see him as a solid depth piece that will help transition Getsy's offense. He's gotten a lot of starter experience due to injuries and has played fairly well. Left tackle has to be on the horizon since we don't have one on the roster. One in FA and one in the draft, at a minimum.

I love Poles so far. He is sending the message to the OL, "I don't like you". Offensive line is the one group that can collectively pick up the slack. The mentality is the key. I'm fully convinced that Cody Whitehair is on final notice and I love it. When the big fatties get an identity, the entire team will follow.

I'm hopeful that he is fully recovered and his core has been retrained. I love his demeanour and power as a player. I just think Pace fell in love with a highlight clip and said we can put him anywhere. He has a place at RT and OG any day of the week if he stays healthy.

That doesn't make sense to me. Orlando Brown was nothing but an LT at Oklahoma. The Ravens made him a RT, then moved him to LT when their starter got hurt. Plus, his wingspan is way bigger than Jenkins, which is a huge advantage. Jenkins only played a few games at LT in college.

You are welcome, my friend!
