CBS Sports Gives Bears and A for WR Darnell Mooney

[KingInTheNorth]

Chris Trapasso gives the pick an 'A': "Mooney is a Tyler Lockett type of small WR with burner speed, nice twitch and awesome contested-catch skill. Not fun to see in space for defenders. Quality depth for Chicago."

^An A

From everything I've read about him he's basically a slower version of KJ Hamler.

Fast, most comfortable from the slot, big play ability, can take any little slant to the house....shit hands and small frame.

Really like this pick and the DE in the 5th.

Should be quality depth on a team that needs it at both spots.

Didn't understand the second CB taken. Must have been BPA by a good margin for them...

Happy with this pick. That’s good value for round 5.

Hopefully he can catch, unlike Hamler.

I missed this pick live on tv because I was pissed at the Victor pick and turned off the tv.

Hopefully he can catch, unlike Hamler.

Supposedly he has the same dropsie issues.

That NFC Exec was probably ryan pace.

Anybody know anything about his route running? If he can do that well he will see the field early.

 

[BEARZOMBIE]

If he makes the team that’s Gabriel replacement right there

Burner in the 5th hopefully we found another Knox not another Gabriel

I'm sure he'll see the field to run the random WR screen/9 route.

Don't really need much experience to do those things, lol

That would be excellent

Gabriel was solid before the brain injuries.

I mean you'd probably want more out of your #2 WR, but its not like he was a bad player.

No one really knows. Never forget that Trubisky was the 2nd overall pick and his best assets were accuracy & vision.

Lol!

Another John Knox, sign me up. Hope he don't get hurt like he did though. Knox had a future in the NFL

Lol!

I’m trying to be positive and look forward to BDN slinging it around!

 

[WestCoastBearsFan]

They just compared him to Travis Benjamin on ESPN. I would be cool with that!
