***2021 NFL Draft IGT*** - Day 3

[DBCOOPER]

trey smith would be a steal. what’s the fucking down side?

Well, he could suddenly drop dead with a blood clot. As grim as this sounds, for a 6th round pick that may be a reasonable risk to take.

We’ve been waiting the entire offseason for a blockbuster trade with the Seahawks, and there it is!

You're that emotionally invested in the guy we could get at 208? They dropped 9 spots and added a pick. It's no blockbuster trade.

forsyth.....prob be their left tackle for a decade

 

[Bears4Ever_34]

Maybe they're looking at their board and realized it's likely they'll still get a solid pick when it's their turn again?

Sure, but it's the 6th round, and they already have 3 picks coming up. I feel like trade downs are sort of useless once you get to these last few rounds, given the already incredibly high unlikelihood you're going to get anybody meaningful.

Nah - I just wanted to stop following the draft at the end of round 6.

I just said that it was a blockbuster trade, so…

 

[greg23]

If we had Chase Daniel as backup right now, yeah. But he's not unseating Andy Dalton. Whether we like that or not. Plus you are way overvaluing the guy.

daniel
dalton
big dick nick

who cares

get a lottery ticket......high chance these 6th/7th round picks are camp fodder anyway.....again....draft and stash another qb

Getting another pick then is another chance they'll get someone that works out, no?

Wouldn't be surprised because he couldn't pass an NFL physical. Dude had blood clots in the middle of a season two years ago and had to stop playing immediately. The specifics weren't disclosed to the media, but he came back and played the next season.

 

[wazzupi]

I wouldn't hate quincy roche, james wiggins cade johnson and gowan

 

[nvanprooyen]

Really surprised to see Gowan drop this far. I thought he would be gone in like rounds 3-4. The fact that we needed CB and were willing to trade back...must be some red flags there.

My point is that when you already have extra picks, you might as well take your chances at a higher position in the round than lower, but yes, another spin at the wheel isn't a bad thing either.

We have a 7th, now, so he’s a guy I wouldn’t mind taking then. Roll them bones. Why not?

 

[remydat]

Ealy, Smith, Gowan, Johnson, Surrat or Newsome.

It's not automatic that trading down is always better or trading up is always better. Or even staying put.

Dropping 9 spots likely means they have a few guys they value equally at the position they'll pick. Or a dozen guys overall that they value equally. It's a minor move either way.

 

[Bears4Ever_34]

Wonder if they could trade some of these 6th's for a 5th next year.

 

[vabearsfan15]

We have a 7th, now, so he’s a guy I wouldn’t mind taking then. Roll them bones. Why not?

I agree its worth the risk if you are unsure if he will pass. But maybe teams are certain he already failed. Its out of his hands. Nothing on him. He is a quality player and young man.

 

[Tillman33]

I wish the Bears somehow had the ammunition to get Orlando Brown before the draft. Imagine that at LT and Jenkins at RT with 1 year to develop before Fields even takes the field.

 

[baredown]

Teams are bitching about COVID making it harder to evaluate players. That doesn’t translate to fewer NFL-quality players, only to less info to figure out who they are. More late round picks means more chances to grab one of the good ones...

 

[bears26]

Pretty smart trade to acquire a 7th rd pick and secure someone who they would have prioritized as an undrafted free agent.
