Which should keep us entertained for a few days at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 We now know that they won't be looking for a LT or a TE high in the draft, so I'm expecting LB, G, or WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradjock Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 We now know that they won't be looking for a LT or a TE high in the draft, so I'm expecting LB, G, or WR. I agree with TE but not LT. We could decide not to sign Jonathon Scott. We could decide that Carimi could move inside. (The Bears like his versatility . . . that means Carimi sucks). Bushrod is a starting LT making starting RT money. What if we decide to keep J Webb on the left side??? We immediately have a lot of work to do at guard and linebacker. I find it hard to believe we won't find a deep threat WR in free agency or the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the starting LT for the Bears until he proves that he no longer can play. He was taught under Kromer and played on the left side for one of the best offensive lines in football the last few years. I can't see a scenario where Carimi gets moved to RG and Webb starts at RT, so in my opinion, it's one or the other. Either Webb wins the RT job and Carimi goes to the bench or Carimi starts at RG or RT and Webb goes to the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they resign Louis as the RG and draft the LG. Bushrod didnt necessarily play great last year but is a big upgrade at that position.

rockren Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I think Fluker remains on our short list for RT. I want him at #20 even more now that we have a LT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo3451 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I want him at #20 even more now that we have a LT. Even if we don't have a starting guard on the roster and Garza is aging and below average? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawhizz Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Cooper seems like the obvious choice if he's on the board at #20 - assuming they can't still make a play for Brandon Moore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing's obvious. At the moment it's wide open. We currently have no guards or linebackers on roster. Assuming we patch that up with scrubs, we could draft in multiple positions.

scs787 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 As he always has been, Cooper would be fantastic @ #20. If he's not there it then opens the door for a LB like Ogletree or Brown. I still don't think Fluker is a RT so unless they let Louis walk or think he can play LG (which is possible) I probably pass on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If cooper and other top rated OL i can get on boars for ogletree though I've got reservations about him. Wouldn't hate it. But brown i would puke at 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearFan PHX Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I dont see anyone else offering Urlacher anything, so I dont see us offering him anything until after the draft either. IF we draft Ogletree, its possible we offer Urlacher a coaching position I think. I know people will say that Ogletree could start on the strong side, and then move over next year, but i just dont think URL has the legs to do it anymore.

Bears4Ever_34 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 If the Bears don't re-sign Urlacher, I would be shocked if they didn't take a LB in round 1 or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But brown i would puke at 20 i don't think it would be anything to "puke" over, I've seen a few drafts that have him going in the 20s....If they Bears like what they saw today at his pro day this would be where to take him. Unless they can trade back. I'd certainly like Ogletree over him though and he should be there. His teammate Jarvis Jones could be another possibility at 20.

adam Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 If the Bears don't re-sign Urlacher, I would be shocked if they didn't take a LB in round 1 or 2. It has to be the First Round pick, I can't see them waiting until the 2nd to address it if we don't re-sign him. I still figure he comes back for a 2 year deal.

I still figure he comes back for a 2 year deal. It makes all kinds of sense, all the intangibles; he knows the system, and can help teach it to Williams. He's the defensive QB etc etc It seems "right" But the main point can't be overcome, he simply can't run anymore. We are better with someone else in there at MLB.

We have to forget his history and look at the player he is right now. Bring him back cheap for his leadership, but not for his play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 The to do list seems simple right now: -If they think the winner between Webb & Carimi at RT is sufficient: Do not hesitate to draft Cooper if he's there at 20. -If they are seriously considering moving Carimi to OG: Draft Fluker if he's there at 20.

Keep Urlacher for as little as possible and use him at safety and other packages.Without having him to be playing in so much traffic (worrying about his legs so much) he might do better.And he can be coaching.
