I would be disappointed if we had like 53 wins and the as beat us with 47 I'm not gonna lie.

I pulled this together in a different place, but Dane Brugler has been the prognosticator closest to where bears will value their board of the two Poles drafts. The big exception is Velus. 2022: Kyler Gordon - 39th player | Bruglers 51 Jaquon Brisker - 48th player | Bruglers 42 Velus Jones - this is probably never going to match up with anyone lol 5th / 6th grade Braxton Jones - 5-168 | Brugler OT-11 4th round grade D Robinson - 5-174 | Brugler Edge-13 3rd Round Grade Z Thomas - 6-186 | Brugler G-19 6th-7th Round Grade T Ebner - 6-203 | Brugler RB 20 6th-7th Round Grade D Kramer - 6-207 | Brugler C-11 PFA Ja'Tyre Carter - 7-226 | OT-18 6th-7th Round Grade Elijah Hicks -7-254 | Not Ranked 2023: Darnell Wright - 10th player (OT2) | Brugler OT3 #24 overall (1st/2nd round grade) Gervon Dexter - 53rd overall (DT6) | Brugler DT 5 #55 overall (2nd round grade) Tyrique Stevenson - 56th overall (CB9) | Brugler CB11 #69 overall (2nd round grade) Zacch Pickens - 83rd overall (DT7)| Brugler DT9 #83 overall (3rd round grade) Roschon Johnson - 4-115 (RB8)| Brugler RB7 #91 overall (3rd round grade) Tyler Scott - 4-133 (WR17)| Brugler WR7 #48 overall (2nd round grade) Noah Sewell - 5-148 (LB10)| Brugler LB12 (4th-5th round grade) Terell Smith - 5-165 (CB23)| Brugler CB18 (4th round grade) Travis Bell - 7-204 | Brugler DT42 (UDFA) Kendall Williamson - 7-258 | Brugler S35 (UDFA) If you had the beast, you weren't that surprised to see Gervon Dexter picked or Pickens. But apparently it was a huge shock outside of that area. Doesn't mean these will be good drafts, but next year I know I'll be paying a lot more attention to his bands of talent than others.

Unfortunately all the what if games played on this forum lead to the negative in real life.

We had a 3rd overall pick. That is a terrible idea just to grab the guy that can be MLB ready. He also wasn't a very good complement! We struggled to find a good place for him and ended up with 12 1B who have no power.

To be #3 pick as a 1b only, RH only player, he needed to be Pete Alonso level. In all his complete, real seasons, he's been at 140 wRC+ He's settling into some Rhys Hoskins level. Which is fine. But Hoskins was selected in the 5th. Alonso was selected in the 2nd. Their career to date, he's been basically outplayed by Sheets, a 2nd round pick. And only sox fans, scarred by a SS moving to 2B, could still believe that asking baseball players to play different positions screws them up so much. To the extent that vaughn is so unathletic and weak in the legs he gets worn down so easily, it's another case against taking him 3rd overall.

Whew i'm sad the one non sox thing I've had to spend time on is over. Thankfully F1 has a nice run of weekend races. A few interesting things some have been touched on: - The "Sewell as an edge" thing is really interesting. I am not sure I see bears fully converting him but wouldn't be surprised if he's allowed to compete with the small number of SAM snaps with Sanborn and possibly tried as a 3rd down rusher. - I love reading all of the "you can use Tyler Scott as an end around/jet sweep threat". Reason being: DJ Moore was that guy in Carolina. Claypool was that guy in Pitt. Mooney was that guy in Chi. Velus is also that guy. Lots of speed and fun could be had forcing defenses to play those WR motions honest. - I'm imagining a great wildcat set with Roschon at QB and Tyler Scott at RB. Scott was a former RB and has incredible vision in open field. You can either pound Roschon up the middle or sell Scott out wide. Also could do the fake "QB run" with roschon and then jump pass since he's a former QB.

Congrats to vaughn but he was a terrible pick at this point. While obviously CJ Abrams hasn't produced much yet, he held much higher prospect value (as seen by netting one of the best players in baseball). I hope that's a lesson to those who railed against him as a "KW pick" and "Just an athlete"

I wouldn’t be shocked by a Robert Quinn reunion either

Wow so 3 in like 18 hours

This team is fighting hard for Rick hahn

Wow. Nice comeback. Glad to see them celebrate.

Interesting that simas followed kelly for 4 IP

Charlotte losing 20-1 good lord. I think let’s move Seidl up to W-S

Honestly it would hurt but maybe they should contract this organization. I’d be ok with it if Jerry lost all the wealth.

Went in my anniversary night tonight. 4 years ago on my anniversary dinner TA walked off the tigers in what seemed like a fun night for an ascending team. Oh well. Perspective.

I honestly think we’ll break this record handily

Fourth round really made the draft for me. Really looking forward to next year though where we can let the draft come to us and be less worried over needs.

I agree on ringo. He moves so well at that size. I get he gets lost a bit but still has good ball production. Maybe a move to safety?

This is brutal. I’m someone that would go to 15 games a year, check 7 minor league games a night and watch the games. It’s all slipping away for me right now. It’s too hard to have a team with an owner this stubborn and pathetic.

Quite frankly many articles over the years did criticize sox fans as overly negative (Sox were picked to be world series winners last year! What are you complaining about) and anyway we were right, every offseason with the exception of 2017 was a disaster for hahn.

Whenever someone is telling you how accountable they are they are not accountable.

Was just going to say that.

I’d have taken carter, but you’d definitely be looking at signing Donovan smith or praying for a cut

I liked pretty much all the tackles but am so happy the bears prioritized a guy with strong pass pro. Can’t have two young tackles that can just be bull rushed all game.

Had they moved to 17 there would have been no offensive tackles left except Harrison who is pretty weak strength wise.
