Lets Compare GB drafts with Ours

[cubsneedmiracle]

Let alone we just cut the top two picks from 2009.

Our Front office is a joke

I can't help but feeling that if Olsen had been drafted by a team like Indy, NE, Pittsburgh, GB he would be a much more finished product and probably a pro-bowler by now.

If people ever looked at trends by players at positions, they'd find that the majority of TEs hit their top level and top potential at year 4 of their career. People wanted to expect year 3 because WRs generally do it and adjust fully in 3 years but even guys like Tony Gonazolez were marginal until year 3. Dallas Clark was hardly a weapon until his 5th year.

The attempted back corner fades where he jumps 3"s off the ground only to drop the ball are hilarious.

He's a decent pass catching TE..As a #1 pick, he's a bust. His statistics are a product of the Bears WR core...

Among Tight Ends Olsen was ranked 10th in the NFL (out of 101 TEs) in total catches and 11th in total yards, but only 47th in YPC, so you are right about him not getting many yards after the catch but he is still about average.

You are right that he can't block, but Brandon Manumaleuna (a great blocker) can't catch (5 catches for 13 yds, 2.6 YPC).

He's not a bust. He's an average receiver (for a tight end) but not great.

and I'm sure Turner was cohersed into calling more plays for em simply because JA didn't want to look completely inept.

And all those backs who let him catch 60 passes last year didn't want to make Jerry look inept either!

Like I said initially, I don't care what the stats say..Out of all of those TE's, how many were drafted in the first round?

IMO..He's a bust. The Media has been hyping him since day one. I really don't understand it.

Angelo has actually gotten WORSE at drafting. It's time for him to GO! I actually hope the Bears SUCK this year; I only hope Cutler looks somewhat decent so that the next regime keeps him around!

Your our more likely right, just think about all the players we have sent packing just so we could watch the become star players on other teams.

Why do you think Aromashodu is good? He spent a year with the Colts.

I wonder if we do bad enough if Lovie will be fired IN season

without money issues, injury or off field problems, who have we cut that has became a "star" on another team?
