Jalen Carter to visit
This is going to sound goofy, but he's one of those skinny ankle guys. I don't trust them to hold up. If you look at Donald as a comparison, Donald has Fred Flintstone ankles. Another skinny ankle dude is Terron Armstead. Yeah he's really good, but also gets hurt a lot.

My Greatest Wish Draft...
If this is the case and it works out well, I would be ecstatic. If not, I'll be sorely disappointed in a another blown opportunity that would sting like other administration's failures. I'm in a mindset to over-invest until it's no longer a talking point...

That's what I love about Poles so far. He's humble, yet assertive. He's also very anchored in a way that gives him conviction and discipline. The fact that he has a distinct process gives me confidence that he won't have any of the "dumbass attacks" that Pace had. If Fields pans out we're gonna start a really good run in 2024...

My Greatest Wish Draft...
Center is the one position that the experts aren't agreeing on. Wypler, Tippman and Schmitz all garner top center from multiple gurus. Avila has even received a top vote on one. Scheme fit may separate the big 3. It would be cool to see a consensus.

The Bears Big Board
That's a good guess. The only other ones I see in there would be Nolan Smith and Miles Murphy.

My Greatest Wish Draft...
- Northern Michigan OT Jake Witt
I like it from a development perspective. Eiselen has shown tremendous improvement the last two years. Having solid backups are tremendously valuable. If they can turn into plus starters, even better. I still want the thoroughbreds drafted, knowing you have a contingency plan of they fail or are hard to extend..- My Greatest Wish Draft...

I like it. My preference would be to address RB and move TE in the 3rd. I think Deuce is going to be a handful, but our offense hasn't evolved in able for him to succeed with us.- My Greatest Wish Draft...
For my entire life the Chicago Bears have been portrayed as blue collar, hard nosed, black and blue, great defense and great running game. It hasn't worked for over 30 years! Time fix it, once and for all. We have a chance to create the greatest offense we have ever had. It all begins with my tag line from the old site, "IT ALL STARTS UP FRONT". It's time! We have an opportunity to draft the final two pieces to an OL that has been neglected for decades. Those are decades of not developing a QB or winning a Superbowl. I'm not saying who Poles should draft, he has multiple options at RT and C. All I am asking is to get it done and do it with certainty. Other than OL, I really want him to draft a young bell cow running back, a 3T(or two) and a "move" TE. I honestly don't care about them fixing the defense until they give Fields 100% of what he needs to succeed. Fields succeeding will improve the defense greatly; more than a rookie DE ever could. I'm tired of waiting and hoping. I especially don't want to have all of the Trubisky talk about Fields. This IS the decision year on Fields, no debate. Give me Skoronski or Johnson Jr at OT and Schmitz, Avila or Wypler at center and you'll never hear me complain about OL being neglected again.- 2023 NFL Free Agency Open Thread (Pinned)
This draft is deep in what we need and Pace ? didn't get a chance to trade our picks away. I like Skor, but Johnson looks like the smart pick with him being able to play LT as well. With 10 picks, the draft should be lovely.- 2023 NFL Free Agency Open Thread (Pinned)
Totally agree. Plus, this is not the year anyway. Make solid moves and draft BPA.- Hot take- DJ Moore interview
How long has it been since we had a receiver consistently draw double coverage or shade from a safety? I like the brashness, as it builds high intensity to back it up. With Mooney and Claypool coming into next contracts, they'd better step up.- Bears CB Inventory Check-In
My guess is that they'll continue to address in the draft and maybe a cap cut. A better front seven will do wonders.- Hot take- DJ Moore interview
Did I read it wrong? I read it like Justin said it...- Jalen Carter to visit
Absolutely! Film shows that his agility at contact is generational.- Our first 4 picks options.
That would be a nice upgrade.- Jalen Carter to visit
I'm glad he's coming in for a visit, because it creates a learning opportunity for me. I already laid down my condemnation of Carter for coming into his pro day overweight and out of shape, so maybe he can get some redemption. If he can come in and convince Poles, who will smell BS, that he has grown from his past and football is first, I'll be glad to have him. Me and my sofa judgement still asks, would Jordan or Payton fail a workout?- Bears Sign D'onta Foreman and Robert Tonyan
There's a few guys out there that are listed at edge that scouts are predicting will be 3techs. It may be a couple of obscure guys.- Our first 4 picks options.
Options be damned, I'll take Peter Skoronski at the beginning of all of those scenarios. Young bodies are bountiful at DL after the OL is set. OT, DL, DL and RB are my priorities...(in that order)- 2023 NFL Free Agency Open Thread (Pinned)
? I was thinking the same thing, funny...?- Consensus Big Board Top 10 (25 FEB Edition)
I think he's the guy.- Monty to Lions?!!
He was low end ypc guy in college too. He made his bones on yards after contact. IMO, Monty runs his ass off, but lacks vision and burst. Then, there's his fatal flaw, the jump cut. - Northern Michigan OT Jake Witt
