Sunday's game was very impressive for the rookies. Well done Pace.
That's not the point. You can't rate a gm based on draft picks you think might be good. The only valid metric is wins and losses because that reflects the totality of his work including coaching hires, draft picks, FA signings. The bears record reflects his failings in all 3 of those categories.
Yes he should be winning. Emery didnt get to have 3 losing seasons for his rebuild. They got rid of him after two one sub 500 season. Pace has 3 of those.

I know you're still somewhat wary of R.Pace and what he's done since he's been with us and you have reason to be cause he's made some questionable decisions, but at least you know how to give credit where credit is due. Pace has been good with his drafts and if what we saw from the 2017 class on Sunday is real and just the start of what those 4 will do for us then that will be huge for this team.
Yes, I tend to call them as I see them. I try to be open minded. When something is done well, I give praise. When something is not done so well, I criticize. I want this franchise to be successful in the worst way. As a fan of > 50 years, it is hard to be optimistic when 8 of every 10 years on average totally sucks.
I'll be sinking or swimming with Pace on the Trubisky pick because he was my #1 choice. Pace has improved each season with his drafting. I think he had a very solid draft in 2017. We need another one in 2018. I am onboard with his FA strategy but he seems to have done better with those give 1yr deals versus those given multi-year deals. There is nothing there salary cap wise that can not be overcome though. This will be a big FA period for him. Now, he better fire Fox!!!
