dawhizz Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 No one who will help much this year, sadly. Maybe Tedric Thompson at safety and a potential outside receiver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASHKUM BEAR Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 No one who will help much this year, sadly. Maybe Tedric Thompson at safety and a potential outside receiver? Wish we were able to get a 3rd out of the deal. The Bears can regroup tonight and get two BPA's. To be honest I never seen S or CB as huge needs with the amount of personal they have there. Sure an upgrade would be good but then you are giving up on some talent that should grow. OT I like: Avery Gennesy potential at LT and good for a zone blocking scheme. If Grasu comes back heathly and hungry then maybe shift Whitehair to a OT also. OT-Roderick Johnson- might make a decent RT, but has experience at LT for FSU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Combine the picks trade down. That is what Pace seems best at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I never seen S or CB as huge needs with the amount of personal they have there. Sure an upgrade would be good but then you are giving up on some talent that should grow. We have a bunch of decent not great guys in the secondary, but this was a draft deep at DB where you could get an above average starter at S or CB in the 2nd. Now we didn't and I don't see the point of addressing it. Is a rookie CB we get in the 4-6 rounds going to be better than BW Webb/Callahan/LeBlanc? Is a safety we get in the 4-6 rounds going to be better than Amos/Bush/Hall/Houston-Carson? I don't see it. Depth isn't he problem. Quality starting caliber players are, IMO. I think with the four remaining picks, you look for positions without that depth. I'm thinking that means, in no particular order swing tackle with starter upside, WR who can play outside, pass-rush specialist, and maybe a versatile DL. Bold wildcard Ryan Pace prediction - The Bears use one of their 4th round picks on Zane Gonzalez, the kicker from Arizona State. Conner Barth was not particularly impressive last year and he's clearly the best K in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gonzalez is still on the board with our 2nd 4th rounder, go for it, draft Gonzalez and fill a need. He would easily be an upgrade over Barth.

Alaskan Grizzly Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Pace will probably draft a RB out from Trinity Christian College. Home of the fighting Trolls. I'd hope he look at a FS or CB at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 One of the picks should be David Sharpe or Julien Davenport. Time to double down on supporting Trubisky. Get a damn OT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Roderick Johnson also still available, right? Yep! Let's go Pace. If this is what you want, and doubling down on the QB is your move, then doubling down on OT should make the same amount of sense. Hell, OT with BOTH of the fourth rounders would be great! 2 out of Sharpe, Davenport, and Johnson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DABEARSDABOMB Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I'm all over Desmond King. I can't see him falling to us, but if he does...awesome!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I'm all over Desmond King. I can't see him falling to us, but if he does...awesome!!! He's going to take BPA, king is in that position. Look who we coached at senior bowl and you may find some clues. Do not be surprised if out next two picks are King and Jerome/s. He is a little small but a playmaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Desmond King and Roderick Johnson would be lovely. Deatrich Wise is a guy guy who intrigues me a lot as well. I don't think we need a WR but if I'm wrong, I'd grab Trubiskys teammate...No not Ryan Switzer, but Mack Collins. 6'4" with good speed.
