April 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 28, 2013 -> 06:57 AM) Great value picks from 4-7. Early list for next years position targets: CB, DT, RB, TE QB. Have to start thinking beyond Cutler, especially since it seems he is what he is, and may not lead us to the Super Bowl.
April 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 28, 2013 -> 10:02 AM) I'd rather the Packers got Lacy instead of Lattimore. Speaking as a Bears fan. Lattimore isn't going to play this season and after that who knows. He tore his ACL back in 2011 and then tore his ACL, PCL and LCL last year. He may never be the same. 21 year old running backs with multiple knee surgeries are not long for the NFL. I'm surprised he was even drafted.

April 28, 201312 yr Lacy is a really good fit for Green Bay. Big, power runner who should be able to have a lot of success because teams wont be able to stack the box against Rodgers.
April 28, 201312 yr Reports that teams were turned off because of Lacy's attitude and a big toe that had been fused.
April 29, 201312 yr Anyone else think that Geno Smith looks exactly like Juan Pierre? The Jets better hope he doesn't throw like Juan Pierre.
April 29, 201312 yr Marquess Wilson is a steal. Would've been a first day pick if not for his discipline problems, but in the 7th round you really don't give a s*** about that. Nicely done by Emery to trade back into the 7th to take a flyer on him while still getting good value out of the pick. Emery went need-focused with the first 2 picks but I think he did a great job landing talent later in the draft. Obviously we don't know how this will work out, but we'll see.
April 29, 201312 yr The Bears haven't had a good OL since 2006. Emery was definitely not playing around this year trying to upgrade it, he did a single-year massive infusion of talent that Angelo should have done but neglected to do for 5 straight years. It will barely have any resemblance to last year. LT: Jermon Bushrod LG: Kyle Long C: Roberto Garza (hopefully his last year) RG: Matt Slauson or Gabe Carimi (this was the single non-problem area before Louis got hurt) RT: J'Marcus Webb (who while never a great player, was nowhere near as bad as people made him out to be, the whipping boy was actually a pretty average LT with awful guards and Garza to his right) Plus, now there is a real live TE to help ease pressure on the pass rush, along with a new offensive system designed to get the ball out of the QB's hand quickly so they won't need to hold blocks as long. This is miles better than Tice's remedial "max protect throw to Marshall" nonsense.
