I think Hamler is too small. They need someone who can line up on the outside consistently. They already have Miller and Cohen in the slot.

I am drafting the tools and hoping to develop the pass rusher. We are not getting a ready made rusher in round 2.

We gotta do something to start scoring points. Fourteen to 17 points a game is not gonna cut in today's NFL.

He's a mid round pick. He reminds me of Alex Brown coming out of Florida.
"Kareem (6'4/265) is not as herald a prospect as teammate Julian Okwara, but the senior pass-rusher is no slouch. Kareem shows a wide array of pass-rush moves and a veteran-like understanding of how to pick and choose his approaches. While Kareem is not the quickest or bendiest player, he is agile enough to complement his impressive strength for the position. Kareem is likely a mid-round pick, barring an huge rise following the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine."

Would make my day. I think Lewis is going to be an animal. I understand there are some injury question marks that limited playing time with Lewis, but thats just the nature of the beast when you dont have a first round pick to help narrow the red flags. Lewis looks like a naturally gifted talent coming from a program gets a rep for its well coached/developed prospects. IMO hed be a fine pick.
I like Jennings too. Ultimately I do think that with more reps, Lewis will prove to be the better pure passrusher than Jennings. But Jennings makes up for that somewhat with excellent versatility. Jennings can play consistently off either edge. Jennings can also play consistently in zone coverage as the MIKE, or downhill as a PLUG. He can play any LB position in this system. I like that.
Jennings could be on the board in the later mid rounds & Id snatch him up in a heartbeat if he is.

Yeah i'm 100% down with drafting T.Lewis at #43 but not sure he'll make it that far. Either way i'm all about drafting a edge rusher in the 2nd round whether we keep Floyd or not. It actually might be good to get one to play with/behind Floyd and then take his spot after next year, that's if he doesn't take it from him during next year which i could see someone like T.Lewis doing.

no argument here. I've said over & over ....start running more from under center vs. the shotgun. Even KC runs from under center

Pace has no choice but to spend a shit ton in FA on offense or he's going to the house after next season. He still will draft some offense, but I'd say he'll try to cover up as many of those holes before that as he can.

I think schematically we've got to commit to more of a pass/run balance. Draft-wise I'd look for help on the OL and speed at the wr position to compliment A-Rob.

For sure. But Pace can’t rest his laurels on rookie learning curves or how steep they are plugging them in starting roles in a putrid offense. He should be in win now mode.

Modo, what would you think about AJ Dillon in the 5th or 6th round? He seems like a guy that can help a team control the clock in bad weather. It will be interesting to see how fast he runs tonight.

I hear ya, that very well could be how things play out, though I do think one of the premier names not named Fromm is going to be within a reasonable striking distance for the Bears to honestly consider.
I DO think Pace is going to target a young QB. That being said I DO think that a kid like Shae Patterson in the late rounds will give a pro team similar production and development to what theyd expect to get from a kid like Fromm.
I do think Patterson will surprise a few people at the pro level. He can play as a pocket read QB in a balanced run/pass pro style offense, & he has the legs to play as a dual threat if neaded. Without Patterson that Michigan team is boarder line awful.
I do believe this will prove to be a rare & deep QB class & I definitely hope Pace can take advantage of it.

His film is interesting...I saw a few BC games and he looked like he was the beneficiary of some nice holes to run through. He always looked like he was running through swamp water; although he has some decent athleticism for a 2 and a half spin guy...people seemed like they needed to properly wrap him up to tackle him.
wasn't really a passing threat......not sure he is a Pace/Nagy guy....
His "speed for a big guy" played well in college but it won't fly in the NFL. My guess is he will have to drop about 10 to 15 pounds....
I think we should just undo the trading Howard mistake....
