Wesson44 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...story?track=rss Chicago Bears GM Phil Emery said today that finding some fresh bodies along the offensive line, whether it be in free agency or the draft, is one of his priorities this offseason. “I like the look of our offensive line with the guys with have signed up right now,” he said. Asked about adding a lineman, Emery said the Bears always are searching for depth. He said they could look at other free-agent linemen, and the team will look “very hard” at offensive linemen in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asked about adding a lineman, Emery said the Bears always are searching for depth. He said they could look at other free-agent linemen, and the team will look “very hard” at offensive linemen in the draft. The quote: What he had to say to the media. The comment about the draft: The truth, hopefully. The two comments are obviously contradictory, so we can only hope he's not just blowing smoke and he actually intends to put serious emphasis on the OL.

AZ54 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I thought he wasnt going to tip his hand on any personnel issues. Soumds like we go defense in rd 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo3451 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I thought he wasnt going to tip his hand on any personnel issues. Soumds like we go defense in rd 1.As it stands now, I'd wager 4 of the 7 picks will be D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xvflutop Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 i'd say at this junction we had better take either DE or OT. Whichever has the better player available at 19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 To me he said nothing, he is not going to show is hand. We like the look of our offensive line but will look very hard at OLine during the draft? Seems like misdirection to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonej Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 To me he said nothing, he is not going to show is hand. We like the look of our offensive line but will look very hard at OLine during the draft? Seems like misdirection to me. That exactly what he is doing and its like the Vikings are now trying to say they are interested in someone besides Kalil. If you have a franchise back and QB(?) don't you need to shore up the OL? Emery talking about the need for OL help is old news and is saying what most of us want to hear. Listening to Cutler at the PC today made me feel he is happy with what they have now and seems to have an audiemce with Emery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Emery were to tip his hand as to what they are going to do in the draft it would be the dumbest thing i have ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
