Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 If we had the #1 pick in the draft, what would you do with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 trade down is impossible with any top 5 picks (unless you're trading down/up within the top 5, but that's still really tough). If we had the no. 1 pick, I'd draft Matt Stafford yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 IT would come down to Matthew Stafford (whom I absolutely love), Sam Bradford, and Andre Smith (Alabama). I realize we spent a top pick on a tackle last season but I'd be thrilled to have tackles the caliber of Williams and Smith at the right and left side's respectably. The 4th option would obviously be Orakpo because a legit pass rushing defensive end has as big of an impact on the defense as any position (it makes everyone on the line stronger and improves the pass defense and creates more turnovers). No freakin way am I taking a safety #1 overall thats for damn sure nor would I take Crabtree because I believe QB, OT, and DE are more impact positions (and I love WR's like no other).

danimal99 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I'd go Bradford with the first pick in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balta1701-A Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 For the Bears? Take the QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 The only option on the list who is worthy of a #1 pick is Orakpo. And that'd be a horrible #1 pick for the Bears. If the Bears had the #1, they have to go with the franchise QB. There is no debating this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bears had the #1, they have to go with the franchise QB. There is no debating this. While I think Crabtree is worthly of a #1 pick, I would agree 100% that we could not pass on one of the QBs (assuming Stafford comes out). I like Orton, but if we had the opportunity to get a legit franchise QB, I can not see any other pick even making sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
