    Murphy now favorite at #9

    At least Wright and Jones seem durable, consistent and young. But yeah, behind them is not a pretty sight. But I'd guess most teams swing tackles aren't pretty.

    Murphy now favorite at #9

    How do you see that making a difference? Concentrating on rushing the passer without 2-gap responsibilities? I watched some Murphy highlights/analysis... He definitely looks a full step better than Dexter and Pickens' college tape. He keeps his eyes on the ball, great balance, gets low...

    Murphy now favorite at #9

    Hard to guess Poles, but what seems logical to me is one of these: Take Turner at #9 or Trade down and pick up one of Verse, Latu or Murphy If he trades down, I personally hope he moves up from 75 to get a good G/C, but that's because I'm so shaky on the futures of Davis and Jenkins. It could...

    Murphy now favorite at #9

    Speaking of Murphy, here's one of my fav mock drafts. Got Latu and Murphy, just had to give up three '25 6th rounders.

    Murphy now favorite at #9

    No doubt having another decent passrusher can be a DT. That'll also make Sweat more productive. Of course a good passrushing DT is very rare. Murphy doesn't have the sacks of say one of the best all-time Aaron Donald, who had two college years with 11 sacks. Murphy's best is 5. Love to have...

    Joel Klatt's final mock draft

    This isn't a bizarre scenario. Of the "drop downs", I think Alt is the most likely. I'm not a big assessor of OT talent. So, if Poles thinks Alt is an All-pro, this is the place to get him. Though I don't see Braxton Jones as a problem. But it really knocks the Bears out of getting the Edge...

    Joel Klatt's final mock draft

    I didn't think Glennon was a franchise QB, but I do remember well he was very likely the best of the shit choices in FA. If that was wrong, I was as wrong as Pace on that one. But I would never have paid Glennon that much $ to be a place holder for Trubisky.

    Will you be disappointed if the Bears trade back with a great prospect on the board?

    Dido what TL1961 posted: @Myk, yes, the past GMs ignored the QB/OL/WR/TE/RB... but that's not what Poles is doing today. Look at the current roster with CW, and the current team holes, not what was in the past. I've been diligently pushing for the Bears to get a franchise QB and improve the...

    Will you be disappointed if the Bears trade back with a great prospect on the board?

    If CW quits the NFL because the Bears didn't get a WR or TE in the first round -- as you give him voice to say -- I think it's best he quits professional sports. That's a cancer that spoils a team, and usually a Johnny Football type casualty. Thankfully, I believe Williams is a light-years...

    Applefan's 4/21/24 Mock draft...Opinions?

    Despite the constant naysayers, Bears are the grateful position of looking for quality instead of quantity. Not to say these are good players, I'm just comparing these 8 draft picks to what I'd consider the "other" option of fewer, higher-ranked players (3-4) for positions of need (though I can...

    Will you be disappointed if the Bears trade back with a great prospect on the board?

    I sense you're very motivated to get someone or some position at Pick 9... :unsure: Who do you want? a WR or LT? I'm supporting CW by trying to get one of the best G/C in the draft because the worst pass-protector last year was Nate Davis, and if he sucks again this year, the rookie QB will be...

    Will you be disappointed if the Bears trade back with a great prospect on the board?

    I would not be disappointed if Bears traded back passing on Odunze or Alt. Because I fairly trust their assessment of talent and bust potential. But mostly because I could see Bears trading back and still picking up one of Turner, Tatu or Verse. Unless they think all 3 of these guys really...
