It's a chronic condition.

Chronic Oline Nervousness?

Take once a week, Jenkins

This is a good thing.

How awesome would it be to have QB, LT, and RT locked down for 4 years on rookie deals? That’s a huge opportunity.

That would be huge for this offense. And if Mooney, Kmet and Monty all step up too.

Competition and collaboration is the new theme.

We must sit Fields for years while OL gels though

@doctorbear this dude a fellow brother rice warrior. Last time Chicago had a warrior was bj Armstrong……I’m smelling championships!

We'll see what happens. Right now we have Ifedi (who we all wanted to upgrade from) and Borom, a 5th round rookie who many thought is more of a RG than RT, competing for the starting RT spot. It would be great if Borom steps up and is actually an upgrade off the bat at RT. Right now though, we're all going into this hoping for the best moreso than expecting the best. At least that's how I see it.

Maybe unicorns will fly outta my butt.

I don’t know what you stick up your butt

It will be key to emphasize the run game to protect Dalton/Fields given the unsettled condition of the OL. Glad they brought in some new RBs.

 

[MakeMyDay]

Not to worry Noogy will pick the worst player - He kept his best lineman on the bench, practice squad or out of position half the season last year...

Good thing Fields has 4.4 speed - he will need it

 

[Bearly]

Don't think he takes Ifedi's job this year but you never know. May sound odd but Ifedi was much better at T than G last year.

 

[SugarWalls]

The issue with this is that Ifedi is not a starting caliber player at tackle. The seahawks drafted him with hopes he would one day develop into a tackle, and he never did. They let him go and he signed with the bears on a vet minimum deal. Borom will beat out Ifedi at some point this year. Unforuntately that means absolutely nothing as Ifedi is a trash can player.

Who thought of Borom as a guard? Posters on this board?

Heard it during the draft by a few analysts and various scouting reports
