Core players

With all the criticize Pace has gotten lately, I still think he has given us our core for the future.

 

Although his first round picks have had questions due to injuries, he has drafted well outside of that round.

 

Here is my list of who I think our core will be going forward. (not in any particular order)(draft and FAs)

 

Trubisky

Shaheen

Whitehair

Howard

Cohen

Floyd

Hicks

Goldman

Trevathan (2018 he will be 28)

Bullard (has taken a step forward this year and will have a breakout season next year)

N. Kwiat ( has grown as a pass defender) with Freeman gone will take over at one of the spots at ILB

Amos (is one of the highest rated Ss this year on PFF)

Jackson

RRH ( has shown improvement from year 1 to year 2 and I predict will become a valuable 3T going forward)

Bryce Callahan ( he has played well minus the injuries)

Merideth ( injuries has derailed his development but think he will be a solid #2 WR going forward)

 

I also think Sims will be better used next year and will show more value .

 

Going forward the key to the list is blue chip players. Mine are MT, Floyd, Whitehair, Hicks, Howard, and Jackson)

 

So lets see your list or criticism on my mine.

 

Conclusion : I think going forward we will be in really good shape.

I like the list but honestly I don't get all the love for rrh to put him as a core player

I also like the list, but there's a lot of "what if" in the list of core players.

 

The following players are a given as far as I'm concerned:

Howard - Potential HOFer

Cohen - Amazing first year

Hicks - Absolute stud

Goldman - Deadly when healthy, a rock in the middle

N. Kwiat - Unspectacular but above average

Floyd - Unspectacular but above average, has way more potential

Amos & Jackson - Sold on them as the S tandem of the future

 

 

This is where the question marks arise:

Trubisky - Is he really the franchise guy?

Shaheen - Still a relative unknown.

Whitehair - Is he rookie year good, or just average? Is he in the right position?

Trevathan - Will he sustain his play long enough to matter for the Bears' future?

Bullard - Will he actually take the step?

RRH - Will he actually take the step?

Bryce Callahan - Haven't really seen enough

Merideth - Might not even be that great, but just benefited from all the injuries last year.

I agree, we have a wait on see on most, but for me in 3 years you need at least 12 players that will be above average and a few stars. We both agree on 8, I think the next group should net us the extra 4.
