Thought it might be good to have an official thread, where we can post some videos and quotes that come out, now that he's officially a Bear. Excited to have him and hope he turns into one of the next great Bears LB'ers. Below is a good video clip I saw elsewhere highlighting some of his plays. Below is a clip of a detailed film study on him:

Cutler has officially announced his retirement. He'll focus on his new reality show and I presume persue his career calling football games on Fox. I actually really look forward to hearing him call games. I think he's going to do a fantastic job. Was really bummed when he signed with Miami last year (right before he was going to call one of our preseason games).

Watch is draft his teammate and we will have 3 of our 4 lbs from Georgia. Sounds like he knew Floyd and got along with him.

Vikings picked up a major character risk. Very talented player but I will root for him to suck.

Actually it might of been Ridley they were trying to move up to get.

I read some quotes from him and man, loved what I heard. I wanted to trade Dow but I can’t argue the pick at all. Hope he is a total beast!

Rappaport reporting bears are trying to trade up into the back end of the first. So don’t turn the tv off just yet. Presume it would be for one of the guys I mentioned above.

If Jackson is on the clock, I think we take him. Otherwise I’m looking at Landry or Carter (if they are there). Daniels wouldn’t be a bad pick on the oline if we intend to move white hair to guard permanently.

By the way, Shaqueem Griffin is a guy I would be intrigued with getting. Great story, great athlete, great football player.

Some reports out there that Baker Mayfield expected to go #1 to the Browns. In addition, Josh Allen has a crisis going on related to tweets dating back from high-school (which just surfaced). Between Mayfield going at 1 and Allen having to do massive damage control...it could create for a big shift in the top of the draft vs. what most everyone was thinking.

These may be famous last words, but of all the top defensive players, there really isn't a guy that is on the list of possible Bears picks at 8, who I really strongly don't want to draft. This is unique to most years where there are always a few guys that I want to stay away from (or possible positions, etc). Probably famous last words but about the only move that would irritate me is if we drafted wideout at 8 or reached on some ILB who wasn't one of the top 4 or 5 names we've already discussed here on the board.

Official Day 1 Thread. Draft day...let this be a draft that we look back on that brought tremendous value to the franchise!

I presume if we are in on Davenport, we might be trading down. I think Gabriel had mentioned something in the last day that he was predicting Bears would move down. Of course, it takes two to tango.

Adding on to this, Davenport certainly fits the Pace draft pick profile. High upside potential, very good athlete. Downside is he is clearly a raw player from a smaller school. Has the ability to turn into a force and I think Pace trusts the defensive coaching staff that we have to do that.

Biggs reporting that the Bears secretly met with Davenport. Had Davenport not said anything to an "unidentified Chicago reporter," no one would know this. Interesting to note since we had a secret meeting with Trubisky a year ago.

NYC - You really are an excellent poster; As always agree with your overall analysis.

I'm saying we trade down and draft Landry.

Awesome - Glad everything is working again. If you run into an issue, email me at Bullsback@gmail.com!

As a heads up, probably about a week out from getting Bears colors back on the site. Additionally, I've figured out how to get the whose online (more similar to what the old forums had) down on the bottom (believe someone had requested that). Would people like to have a twitter off on the right side. Or some sort of news feed (when you access the main page)? Want to get perspectives what people would find helpful / beneficial. Note: The twitter functionality would purely be for desktop / tablet viewers (not on phones). Presume everyone has learned by now, but if you want to embed a video or tweet, you just copy and paste the link into the post and wait about a second and it will automatically format the tweet/video. Additionally, if you have an image or something else, you can drag and drop within the post. The platform is extremely user friendly and powerful.

Nelson, Long, and Whitehair would be a pretty strong interior oline. Leno isn't that bad on the outside and even Massie is okay (but not great). I just hope Long can get back to being that pro bowl player (both in performance but also) who can stay on the field. Would be great if he gets the injuries behind him and has a couple strong years!

Welcome aboard - I'm with you on how Trubisky held himself. He also is such a good athlete. I hope he stays healthy and we get to see him really grow and shine as a Bear. Would be great to finally have a great QB!!! I wish the season was here already. While I still think we are a year away, I'm very excited to see what the next year brings. I expect some early bumps and a strong finish. And oh man, I still remember when we had a chance to knock the Packers out and make the playoffs and we let Nelson catch that deep pass within the final minute or so of the game (think Conte was our safety).

I need to get this back on my list to set back up. By the way, glad your login works now. Welcome aboard!

Pretty good looking mock.

That seems very realistic and would work just fine for me.
