I am sure we could probably move down (in front of PIT) and still get him.

Yeah I remember because it didn't happen until the KC game. Then it goes to St. Clair of all people.

If it is a punishment, it would have to be something somewhat decent. I could see a 4th or 5th rounder.

I missed 3,9, and 10, and guessed on 2 that I got right.

Post your results. Answers here: http://www.chicagobears.com/news/NewsStory.asp?story_id=4492

So it looks like the Bears may be compensated:

This is the best news of all. Getting compensation from the 49ers would be sweet.

Visit any chatrooms lately Chris?

I know it would never happen, but it would be sweet if NE was stripped of that SB title.

Tait signed a 6 year deal in 2004. So he will be a FA in 2010. He has two years left (2008: $4.6 million and 2009: $4.8 million) on that deal. I made a summary of all the Bears contracts. It is not as good as LT2's, but if he doesn't post an updated one, I will post mine (far inferior) before the draft.

Could also be titled: Benson's performance could alter draft plans.

Welcome!

We would more than likely have to trade our 1st rounder to get Johnson. So it would be more like Johnson or Mendenhall, not Johnson and Mendenhall. Otherwise, I agree with you.

Urlacher blue and Sayers throwback

Yes, Invision would need to add those in a future release. I will post something in their forums about it. It is also possible that it can be done via scripting but I have not explored that avenue yet. Also, there might be some 3rd party add-ons that already provide that functionality.

If we draft him he must wear #40.

Askhum, I can't see the Bears trading up in the first unless one of the Long's or McFadden is still there around 9. I would hate to trade up and lose 2 picks just to pick up Williams when one of Clady/Otah/Williams should be there at 14. I think the trade down is much more realistic in the 1st, with even some moving up in the later rounds. Something like trading down into the 20's to pick up another 2nd rounder, then coupling the extra 3rd and a 4th to move into the low 80's with the pick from SD in the 3rd. That would give the Bears 5 picks within the first 80 or so (1x 1st, 2x 2nd, 2x 3rd)

Thanks, made the change.

nfo, I'm not an Admin here, but I am familiar with IPB. In the Admin controls, I do not see anything that adds the Post# to the Outline mode. That is something that should be added. For changing the Title topic on your post, the only option I can see is "Can edit own topic title & description?", which defaults to "No". However, I do not think this would allow a user who did not create the topic to actually change his own post title. Again, this is something that would be very nice to see.

$1.75 million per year is not a bad deal for Carolina. I don't see the Bears acquiring a WR in FA.

You're right, I am probably being a little unrealistic. However, with the loss of Berrian and Moose, you have to believe that Olsen will play a much bigger role in the offense this year.

This post was created using the Add Reply button at the bottom. Mods you can delete, it was just a test. I haven't ever seen the option to title a post, only a thread, and I have never seen the post numbered in outline view. This should be an option since they are numbered in the standard view.

nfo, If the poster hits the reply button or quote and reply button under the person they are responding to, it should keep it in that tree. However, if they just hit the big Add Reply button at the bottom, I think that one sends the comment to the end. I will test with my next post. This one was in reply to your last one.

Mendenhall was recruited by the one and only Ron Turner. Will that have any impact on this draft, especially after seeing the Brandon Lloyd signing? Also, OT, how bad will Thomas Jones feel if the Jets draft McFadden? That would be basically 4 teams that pick you up, then draft or acquire your replacement within 2 years. This is the same guy who has averaged 1,100 yards over the last 4 years. Talk about no respect.
