You guys complain every year that they don't address the Qb position. They finally make a shrewd move to get one because if they didn't it's likely someone else was entertaining a trade with San Fran to get Trubisky, the guy Pace identifies as "the guy" and you all lose ur s*** over a couple third rounders.

Shrewd???? Ships you're drunk.

Apparently Conley took and passed a lie detector. So no hope for him to slide to the second most likely.

When you have 8 holes to fill those couple of 3rd rounders are important especially for a one year wonder.

What shrewd move are you referring to? I have yet to see one

 

Look it's really easy to give them no benefit of the doubt because we have frankly been burned far too many times to do that but if they knew that Mitch was their guy from all the work they have done and they ALSO knew there was a good chance they wouldn't get him because the Browns were going to make that trade to get him then they done the right thing. Now if they made that trade thinking the niners were going to get him then yeah they made a mistake.

It's a horrible reach. The Bears are a terrible organization

Watson saw better defenses in college than he'll see in the AFC South

The Browns have more of a clue than the Bears sadly. I hope for multiple blackouts so I can watch mediocre to decent football rather than crap on Sunday afternoons. Bears are a joke.

Eagles should take Conley.

It honestly sucks not being interested in watching the Bears. It's miserable.

Malik Hooker is incredible value anywhere now.

Damn.. all of these young defensive studs dropping to playoff teams. Must be nice..

I know. It sucks not being interested in anything other than Baseball and Hockey currently. Bulls/Bears are both gawd awful organizations at this point.

This was four picks to move up one spot in a mediocre draft to grab a guy who doesn't project as a perennial pro bowl talent. What is shrewd about this?

In 10+ years of posting ive never once wanted the bears to trade uo for a qb, almost every draft I've wanted them to trade down to accumulate picks.

saints clearly believe in Ohio states ability to develop.

OJ Howard is incredible. Top end TE. Shockingly underused at Bama a lot of the time.

Would Stan or Theo be open to running the Bears?

You seem biased towards all these OSU guys...

But they are also all so good. Schiano called him the next Ed Reed. And our secondary was flat out incredible.

 

Just wait until next year, the D line is going to have several picks and ill be just as bad. But I also wont call for anyone to take JT Barrett

Can't believe Howard fell in the Bucs lap. I was hoping maybe Njoku would be available if the top 3 RBs weren't available bc I figured Howard would've been gone by 19. Excited.

He's so good. Bama never went to him as much as they could have. Huge Weapon.

Seems like a great pick but I was also a big ASJ fan when they picked him. Although he was a 2nd rounder with off the field problems.

Looking at the points chart, the Bears really didn't give up a lot to get Tribusky using the Texans and Chiefs trades as reference. I understand the sentiment that the Bears have more holes to fill and shouldn't be trading picks. I also don't like the pick much. I'm just saying.

ASJ had all the talent but was a moron. Plus injury prone.

There we go. The lie detector worked
