Kiper and McShay are doing a live mock right now:

 

Goff

Wentz

Tunsil

Bosa

Jack

Ramsey

Conklin

Buckner

Stanley

Elliott

 

Bears: Floyd

 

 

I'm not a fan of Floyd. He's small, gets blocked often, isn't explosive, and will be a 24 year old rookie. Hard pass.

Bill Polian was saying on Dave Kaplan's radio show that he thinks Norman is a product of the system and not so much a true shutdown qb because of ability. I kind of trust Polian.

I still cannot believe that those QB's are going to be drafted that high.

Aside from Paxton lynch suddenly being in play in the top ten, who do we think could be the biggest surprise player to jump in there?

OT Jack Conklin.

Not worried about the "system" thing. Fangio can use anything, but Norman is going to want something like $13 million per. Bad deal. Let San Francisco waste that money.

Matt Miller just tweeted that the most recent buzz for the Bears is OLB Leonard Floyd and OLB Darren Lee

I hope they trade down then. Last year, the "buzz" about who we'd pick was right on. I will give Pace/Fangio/Fox the benefit of the doubt on floyd, but nobody I normally read for drafts seems to like them which tempers my excitement.

He mentioned Shaq Lawson too. Nobody has any idea though. Teams are so tight-lipped right now, especially the Bears. Darron Lee wouldn't even start for the Bears. Floyd is my nightmare scenario. 24 year old rookie that is small and can't set the edge. No thanks.

Same. I'd be pretty upset with Floyd as the Bears pick. Lee, I don't know why since he wouldn't even start. Lawson seems like a 4-3 DE to me.

multiple leverages

I really hope so, because none of those names really intrigue me.

Good work.

 

I feel confident in Fangio using Shaq Lawson in ways to make him awesome.

Darron Lee would probably play SS for the Bears. He's not a huge guy but fast as hell. He may end up goig before Jack, something no one would have thought 3 months ago. I wouldn't love the pick, but Fangio's always had hard hitting, fast safeties.

Norman to Washington. Him vs. Odell twice a year now.

5 years, $75M with FIFTY MILLION guaranteed. f*** that.

Yup. Didn't even know he was as old as he is.

@AdamSchefter

 

For the first time in recent memory, NFL has notified all 32 teams that no player tested positive at February combine, per league sources.

No. He cannot not play safety. He's a LB.

Shaq Lawson heating up to the Bears per Matt Miller.

Lee is like 235 pounds. I don't think he can play safety.

 

 

Now Su'a Cravens is probably a LB that will move to safety.

He will play at around 240ish, he's an OLB that can cover space, TE's and blitz

Darron Lee isn't really a fit in Chicago anymore. He wouldn't even start for the Bears.

This is either agent driven or the Bears want it out there. That front office is locked up tight. I'd be completely fine with that pick though.

The fact that Washington thinks this is a good idea makes me KNOW this is a terrible signing. Washington has been the leader of bad FA signings for years now.
