Round 2

2[33] Jacksonville Jaguars: TE Try McBride [Colorado St]
2[34] Detroit Lions: CB Kyler Gordon [Washington]
2[35] NY Jets: LB Nakobe Dean [Georgia]
2[36] Houston Texans: DT Perrion Winfrey [OU]
2[37] NY Giants: CB Kaiir Elam [Florida]
2[38] NY Jets [Car]: S Lewis Cine [Georgia]

*The Chicago Bears trade 2[39] to the Baltimore Ravens for 2[45] and 4[110].

2[39] Baltimore Ravens [Chi]: DT Devonte Whyatt [Georgia]
2[40] Kansas City Chiefs [Sea]: DE Arnold Ebiketie [Penn St]
2[41] Seattle Seahawks: CB/S Jalen Pitre [Baylor]
2[42] Washington Commanders: WR Christian Watson [NDSU]
2[43] Atlanta Falcons: WR Skyy Moore [Western Michigan]
2[44] Cleveland Browns: DE Drake Jackson [USC]

2[45] Chicago Bears [Bal]: DT Logan Hall [Houston] 6'6" 283lbs, 32 3/4" arms, 25 bench, 4.88 [40], 30" vert

I think the Bears could very easily go defensive in the 2nd round and they seem to be valuing the DL more than the secondary, as thin as the secondary looks. The Bears missed on their #1 free agent OT and I cannot see Justin Jones making them stop looking for a long term 3 technique. Hall has the size and athletic ability that the Bears are looking for and has the production and experience at the position. Some people have talked about Hall being a big DE, but I think in this defense he is more than capable of being a force inside. He still needs technique work on his hands and could become an even more dynamic rusher then his 6 sacks this season would tell you. The Bears have met with Hall at his Pro Day and hosted him on a Halas Hall visit, so I expect the interest is legit.

2[46] Minnesota Vikings: OT Ryan Smith [Tulsa]
2[47] Indianapolis Colts: WR Alec Pierce [Cincinnati]

The Chicago Bears trade 2[48] to the Kansas City Chiefs for 2[62] and 3[94].

2[48] Kansas City Chiefs [Chi]: CB Roger McCreary [Auburn]
2[49] New Orleans Saints: OT Abraham Lucas [Washington St]
2[50] Kansas City Chiefs [Mia]: DT Travis Jones [UConn]
2[51] Philadelphia Eagles: LB Chad Muma [Wyoming]
2[52] Pittsburgh Steelers: QB Sam Howell [UNC]
2[53] Green Bay Packers [LV]: OLB Myjai Sanders [Cincinnati]
2[54] New England Patriots: WR Jahan Dotson [Penn St]
2[55] Arizona Cardinals: CB Martin Emerson [Mississippi St]
2[56] Dallas Cowboys: OG Cole Strange [Tennessee Chatanooga]
2[57] Buffalo Bills: RB Kenneth Walker [Michigan St]
2[58] Atlanta Falcons: S Jaquan Brisker [Penn St]
2[59] Green Bay Packers: WR John Metchie [Alabama]

2[60] Tampa Bay Buccaneers: CB Tariq Wollen [UTSA]
2[61] San Francisco 49ers: RB Breece Hall [Iowa St]

2[62] Chicago Bears [KC]: OG Dylan Parham [Memphis] 6'3" 311lbs, 33" arms, 4.93 [40], 26.5" vert, 108" broad

Parham looks like the perfect fit in the Bears wide zone scheme. He doesn't have elite size, but he is an athletic technician who can make the reach blocks the Bears will need him to. He also fits what the Bears need in terms of an instant starter at RG. Parham is super experienced with over 50 starts in college at RT and LG. He should be able to step in day 1 and give the Bears at least league average OG play. For an undersized player he is a physical pass protector and utilizes his quickness to short set guys and get into them before they can get going.

2[63] Cincinnati Bengals: LB Troy Anderson [Montana St]
2[64] Denver Broncos [LAR]: OT Darian Kinnard [Kentucky]

Round 3

3[65] Jacksonville Jaguars: C Cam Jurgens [Nebraska]
3[66] Detroit Lions: WR Jalen Tolbert [South Alabama]
3[67] New York Giants: LB Leo Chanel [Wisconsion]

3[68] Houston Texans: DE Kingsley Enagbare [South Carolina]
3[69] New York Jets: RB Kenneth Walker [Michigan St]
3[70] Jacksonville Jaguars: LB Christiann Harris [Alabama]

3[71] OT Zach Tom [Wake Forest] 6'4" 304lbs, 33 1/4" arms, 4.94 [40], 33" vert, 1198" broad

Tom is a versatile and athletic player, who despite not being the biggest and strongest guy has shut down a number of ACC rushers. He has exceptional movement skills, balance, and uses angles to his advantage. He may be an OG in the NFL because his lack of ideal length, but I think you can also try him at OT. Best case scenario is that he takes Whitehairs job and becomes the LG for the next decade. Worse case scenario is that he competes and provides depth at RT, RG and LT.

1236171397.0.jpg

3[94] CB Jalyn Armour-Davis [Alabama] 6'1" 197lbs, 31" arms, 4.39 [40], 34.5" vert

The Bears do not seem like they want to make a big commitment at CB, the system does not demand studs at CB, but they do need competition and depth. Amour-Davis has the length, size and speed, that Flus has talked about. He has some rough edges, but this defense should be built for a guy who knows the zone coverages and has run a complex defense in college. Davis can compete with Graham and give the Bears a bigger more physical player at CB2.

100921_mfb_armourdavisja_tamu_sl1174.jpg

4[110] WR Tyquan Thornton [Baylor] 6'2" 181lbs, 4.28 [40], 36.5" very, 130" broad

The Bears need WR help, but the buzz seems to be that they will wait and take advantage of the depth of this class. Thornton is not a polished WR, but he has elite speed and explosion and can hopefully be productive as a #3 target this season. The Bears do not have a lot of size at WR, and they need more speed. With Fields ability to throw the deep ball we could see a role for Thornton early. 15 yards per catch is exactly what the Bears need.

1238284955.0.jpg

5[148] S Leon O'Neal [Texas A&M] 6' 204lbs, 15 reps, 35" vert, 125" broad

A well built safety that has good explosiveness and is reliable tackler. He had 2 interceptions last season and 5 passes defensed and should step right into the competition the Bears have at SS. At a minimum he provides developmental depth at a spot where Jackson's future is up in the air after 2022.

USATSI_17018814.jpg

5[150] WR Jalen Nailor [Michigan St] 6' 190lbs, 4.5 [40], 38" vert, 128" broad

Another WR with good speed and explosiveness. Nailor has been connected to the Bears during the pre-draft process and would fill a developmental spot for the Bears. He was a state champion sprinter and can play on the outside. He is also an aggressive run blocker for a smaller WR, which seems to be something the Bears are valuing pretty highly.

USATSI_16826940.jpg

6[160] LB Malcolm Rodriguez [Oklahoma St] 5'11" 225lbs, 4.52 [40], 39.5" vert, 120" broad

The Bears are short on LB depth and they seem to be focused on adding speed at the 2nd level of the defense. Rodriguez does not have the ideal size, but he is fast and explosive nad a productive player in the Big 12. He is likely never going to be more than a backup MLB and special teamer, but he has unique physical tools and we are in need to more speed on teams.

Free Agents

OT Dennis Kelly [Green Bay] 1 year 2.75 million/1.5 guaranteed


The Bears need some experienced depth at OT and Kelly knows the staff, the system, and has multiple starts at RT and LT and has played well when called upon.

USATSI_16670962-e1639434154817.jpg

OG Laurent Dunleavy Tardif [NY Jets] 1 year 2.5 million/1 guaranteed

Experienced interior depth that was drafted Poles in KC and who has played at a high level in the past. At 32 he is unlikely to be an unquestioned starter anywhere and in Chicago he can compete and hopefully backup at RG.

Like linemen with the first 3 picks. WR stans are gonna complain but fuck em.

Was it Davis or the other Bama CB that tore up his shoulder? No more preinjured players, please

If Robert Quinn is still here, Al Quadin Mohammed will start at opposite DE, not Gipson.

This board might hunt down poles if he passes on christian watson to trade down and grab a defensive tackle.

Seriously, the level of cunting will be to a new level if the bears pass on moore, pierce, watson, dotson, metchie, etc to draft a tackle.

A defensive tackle.

Would be a very bears thing to do, tho.

Probably but I think Watson is overrated. Pretty average production against lower comp and 16 total drops in his career…but if measurables win games, he’s your guy I guess

Okay with the first trade down, but passing on Jahan Dotson for Parnam and Amour-Davis would upset me.

  1. Miami Hurricanes
  2. Northern Illinois Huskies
I want us to go offense with out first three picks. I don't give a shit about the defense. Give Fields every opportunity to be successful this year. Worry about the defense next. We need to know what we have in Fields now. Don't fail him by having him out there with an inferior supporting cast.

*The Chicago Bears trade 2[39] to the Baltimore Ravens for 2[45] and 4[110].

2[39] Baltimore Ravens [Chi]: DT Devonte Whyatt [Georgia]
2[40] Kansas City Chiefs [Sea]: DE Arnold Ebiketie [Penn St]
2[41] Seattle Seahawks: CB/S Jalen Pitre [Baylor]
2[42] Washington Commanders: WR Christian Watson [NDSU]
2[43] Atlanta Falcons: WR Skyy Moore [Western Michigan]
2[44] Cleveland Browns: DE Drake Jackson [USC]

2[45] Chicago Bears [Bal]: DT Logan Hall [Houston] 6'6" 283lbs, 32 3/4" arms, 25 bench, 4.88 [40], 30" vert

I think the Bears could very easily go defensive in the 2nd round and they seem to be valuing the DL more than the secondary, as thin as the secondary looks. The Bears missed on their #1 free agent OT and I cannot see Justin Jones making them stop looking for a long term 3 technique. Hall has the size and athletic ability that the Bears are looking for and has the production and experience at the position. Some people have talked about Hall being a big DE, but I think in this defense he is more than capable of being a force inside. He still needs technique work on his hands and could become an even more dynamic rusher then his 6 sacks this season would tell you. The Bears have met with Hall at his Pro Day and hosted him on a Halas Hall visit, so I expect the interest is legit.

2[46] Minnesota Vikings: OT Ryan Smith [Tulsa]
2[47] Indianapolis Colts: WR Alec Pierce [Cincinnati]

The Chicago Bears trade 2[48] to the Kansas City Chiefs for 2[62] and 3[94].

2[48] Kansas City Chiefs [Chi]: CB Roger McCreary [Auburn]
2[49] New Orleans Saints: OT Abraham Lucas [Washington St]
2[50] Kansas City Chiefs [Mia]: DT Travis Jones [UConn]
2[51] Philadelphia Eagles: LB Chad Muma [Wyoming]

2[59] Green Bay Packers: WR John Metchie [Alabama]

2[60] Tampa Bay Buccaneers: CB Tariq Wollen [UTSA]

2[62] Chicago Bears [KC]: OG Dylan Parham [Memphis] 6'3" 311lbs, 33" arms, 4.93 [40], 26.5" vert, 108" broad

Parham looks like the perfect fit in the Bears wide zone scheme. He doesn't have elite size, but he is an athletic technician who can make the reach blocks the Bears will need him to. He also fits what the Bears need in terms of an instant starter at RG. Parham is super experienced with over 50 starts in college at RT and LG. He should be able to step in day 1 and give the Bears at least league average OG play. For an undersized player he is a physical pass protector and utilizes his quickness to short set guys and get into them before they can get going.

2[64] Denver Broncos [LAR]: OT Darian Kinnard [Kentucky]

Round 3

3[65] Jacksonville Jaguars: C Cam Jurgens [Nebraska]
3[66] Detroit Lions: WR Jalen Tolbert [South Alabama]
3[67] New York Giants: LB Leo Chanel [Wisconsion]

3[68] Houston Texans: DE Kingsley Enagbare [South Carolina]
3[69] New York Jets: RB Kenneth Walker [Michigan St]
3[70] Jacksonville Jaguars: LB Christiann Harris [Alabama]

3[71] OT Zach Tom [Wake Forest] 6'4" 304lbs, 33 1/4" arms, 4.94 [40], 33" vert, 1198" broad

Tom is a versatile and athletic player, who despite not being the biggest and strongest guy has shut down a number of ACC rushers. He has exceptional movement skills, balance, and uses angles to his advantage. He may be an OG in the NFL because his lack of ideal length, but I think you can also try him at OT. Best case scenario is that he takes Whitehairs job and becomes the LG for the next decade. Worse case scenario is that he competes and provides depth at RT, RG and LT.

3[94] CB Jalyn Armour-Davis [Alabama] 6'1" 197lbs, 31" arms, 4.39 [40], 34.5" vert

The Bears do not seem like they want to make a big commitment at CB, the system does not demand studs at CB, but they do need competition and depth. Amour-Davis has the length, size and speed, that Flus has talked about. He has some rough edges, but this defense should be built for a guy who knows the zone coverages and has run a complex defense in college. Davis can compete with Graham and give the Bears a bigger more physical player at CB2.

View attachment 19137

4[110] WR Tyquan Thornton [Baylor] 6'2" 181lbs, 4.28 [40], 36.5" very, 130" broad

The Bears need WR help, but the buzz seems to be that they will wait and take advantage of the depth of this class. Thornton is not a polished WR, but he has elite speed and explosion and can hopefully be productive as a #3 target this season. The Bears do not have a lot of size at WR, and they need more speed. With Fields ability to throw the deep ball we could see a role for Thornton early. 15 yards per catch is exactly what the Bears need.

View attachment 19138

5[148] S Leon O'Neal [Texas A&M] 6' 204lbs, 15 reps, 35" vert, 125" broad

A well built safety that has good explosiveness and is reliable tackler. He had 2 interceptions last season and 5 passes defensed and should step right into the competition the Bears have at SS. At a minimum he provides developmental depth at a spot where Jackson's future is up in the air after 2022.

View attachment 19139

5[150] WR Jalen Nailor [Michigan St] 6' 190lbs, 4.5 [40], 38" vert, 128" broad

Another WR with good speed and explosiveness. Nailor has been connected to the Bears during the pre-draft process and would fill a developmental spot for the Bears. He was a state champion sprinter and can play on the outside. He is also an aggressive run blocker for a smaller WR, which seems to be something the Bears are valuing pretty highly.

View attachment 19140

6[160] LB Malcolm Rodriguez [Oklahoma St] 5'11" 225lbs, 4.52 [40], 39.5" vert, 120" broad

The Bears are short on LB depth and they seem to be focused on adding speed at the 2nd level of the defense. Rodriguez does not have the ideal size, but he is fast and explosive nad a productive player in the Big 12. He is likely never going to be more than a backup MLB and special teamer, but he has unique physical tools and we are in need to more speed on teams.

Free Agents

OT Dennis Kelly [Green Bay] 1 year 2.75 million/1.5 guaranteed


The Bears need some experienced depth at OT and Kelly knows the staff, the system, and has multiple starts at RT and LT and has played well when called upon.

View attachment 19142

OG Laurent Dunleavy Tardif [NY Jets] 1 year 2.5 million/1 guaranteed

Experienced interior depth that was drafted Poles in KC and who has played at a high level in the past. At 32 he is unlikely to be an unquestioned starter anywhere and in Chicago he can compete and hopefully backup at RG.

Good seeing these again!

One thing to bring up about Dylan Parham is that he has been wrestling since very early childhood, 5 or 6, I think, and plays with the dynamism, balance, and leverage one would expect from a good wrestler.

Anyway, for all the first round hype about another undersized C with a wrestling background, Parham’s my dude.

Clearly, you put a lot of effort and research into this mock. But it illustrates why for so many years the Bears have been the franchise where QBs and WRs go to die. My take is that the number one priority is to give Fields the weapons and protection he needs so a fair evaluation can be made whether he is, in fact, the future of the franchise.

I'm OK with giving the defense low priority. If Fields shines, the defense can be next year's priority with a full draft board and lots of cap space. If he doesn't cut it, at least we know and don't waste several more years trying to find out because he didn't have the weapons.

Is it just me or is this draft missing two of the top five LB's in the draft Quay Walker and Damone Walker? If be a MIRACLE they are available DRAFT THEM ASAP.

I want us to go offense with out first three picks. I don't give a shit about the defense. Give Fields every opportunity to be successful this year. Worry about the defense next. We need to know what we have in Fields now. Don't fail him by having him out there with an inferior supporting cast.

This is what a smart GM would do.

I'm not so sure poles is a smart GM. Guess we will find out.
