bradjock Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 an f'ing Fullback in the 4th? I have seriously had it.. Some have him listed as a fullback others a TE. Was "upgrade Tyler Clutts" on our to do list? Was there no long snapper worth taking in the 4th round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Massie goes a pick later. This, out of all of them is the biggest head scratcher. If Emery mentions Special Teams with this guy, someone needs to let him know that we actually have an offense and defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya a 6'2 TE.... need some competition for Matt Spaeth to miss blocks and get Forte hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradjock Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Lol I missed the pick. We drafted a Fullback? Evan Rodriguez Probably a TE. He's 6-1 1/2 weights 244 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TerraTor Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Evan Rodriguez Probably a TE. He's 6-1 1/2 weights 244 How do the bears counter all the athletic TEs taking over the NFL? We resign Kellen Davis who has 18receptions and draft a 6'1 TE... awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Ugly: Rodriguez was arrested for a assaulting a woman at WVU. He was arrested again in 2009 for disorderly conduct. Bad: This is considered a reach. Good: He's very versatile, and he's a TIGHT END. Stop with the FB bulls***. Clutts played at a Pro Bowl level last year. The Bears will use him as an Aaron Hernandez type. Will he be as good? Doubt it, but he's short and quick like Hernandez is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thinking is we need to add competition to the position. Without checking the roster, aren't J Webb and Carimi the only two players we even list as an offensive tackle?

balta1701-A Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Aaron Hernandez-lite? 4.5 speed.. Not bad. I know nothing about this guy. If the Bears got Aaron Hernandez, then no one's going to ever say anything bad about this guy again. If the Bears got a backup FB, then this will be on the list of risky failed picks when this GM gets fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 total friggin joke.... Yeah, who the f*** would want 10-12 wins per year + 3 Super Bowls? F***ing joke... If the Bears got Aaron Hernandez, then no one's going to ever say anything bad about this guy again. If the Bears got a backup FB, then this will be on the list of risky failed picks when this GM gets fired. Exactly. Again, I trust Emery. I loved his FA signings, and so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt. He found great players in KC and Atlanta. In 2-3 years, we'll know if these picks were okay, if they sucked, or if they were really good. The thinking is we need to add competition to the position. Without checking the roster, aren't J Webb and Carimi the only two players we even list as an offensive tackle? I guess I'd agree, but would a prospect who fell 2, maybe 3, rounds be an upgrade? If Webb or Carimi get hurt, they're f***ed anyway. I'm betting they sign a veteran OT in the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Where would Massie play here? He played RT at Mississippi. What makes ANYONE think he can play LT in the NFL? I was just thinking depth at this point. Rod is an interesting pick, if he turns out to be anything like Hernandez, it will be a great pick.

If the Bears need an OT upgrade and don't get one, then Lovie Smith won't be the coach next season, and Emery will have a very short number of chances to fix that problem.

DaBearSox Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 So why are people comparing him to Hernandez? Please look at the scouting reports of Hernandez before the 2010 draft... Oh he has similar size and a latino last name...OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty general statement about the NFL draft... I am saying it is laughable because he has the same speed to Hernandez and since it seems like Emery is somewhat off his rocker with "stretch" picks the optimistic assume he is going the "Patriots way"....

selection7 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 That's a pretty general statement about the NFL draft... I am saying it is laughable because he has the same speed to Hernandez and since it seems like Emery is somewhat off his rocker with "stretch" picks the optimistic assume he is going the "Patriots way".... Huh? Do you mean it is laughable to say he has the same speed as Hernandez?? Our pick not only has "similar speed", he's possibly faster than Aaron Hernandez, who ran his 40-times in the high 4.5s to 4.6s. According to NFL.com. Rodriguez was one of the top 2 or 3 performers for a TE in 40-time, 3-cone, and the 20 & 60 yard shuttles (EDIT: & vertical leap). Not saying I like the pick, just pointing out the facts, he's obviously extremely quick and speedy. What I don't understand is... STRENGTHS: Rodriguez is a very reliable pass catcher who is a crafty route runner. He was a go-to look for Temple to pick up first downs and maneuver through defenders for extra yardage. He is quick off the ball and understands how to leverage his body. He is a smooth runner who looks natural in the open field. WEAKNESSES: Rodriguez is almost nonexistent in the pass game, and his athletic ability is suspect when attempting to get to the second level and block linebackers. WTH? After what they wrote for his strengths, where are they coming up with "nonexistent in the pass game" and "not an athlete" (especially knowing his 3 cone and shuttle drills were excellent)?
