Bears Draft Thread : Day 1 

Post#1 » by Chewie » Thu Apr 26, 2012 11:08 pm

Emperor has "other priorities" (how can that be?) so I'll start the draft topic for day 1.

About an hour away.

Let's get it on !!!

I think we'll snag a WR at 19.

Always find myself wishing they'd move the draft venue around from year to year. Would love to see the draft held in Chicago (even if I DO live in FL now). The fans there just seem rude and crass year in and year out.

Drives my wife nuts every year how she has to hear Kiper mispronounce "strength" about a million times on draft day. Now her pet-peeve has become mine. Learn the word, dude.

^^^^^^Regardless of their behavior in NY, every NFL city should have the chance to host the draft.

It's not fair to allow one city that enjoyment every year.

Why the hell did the Browns trade up one spot to take a RB?

They gave the Vikings extra picks to move from #4 to #3. I didn't see the Vikings picking Richardson, considering they have Adrian Peterson.

Afraid the Vikings would trade out to someone else who would take their guy

Like the Bucs. I think they wanted that pick.

High price to move up one spot.

Good lord. Trades galore.

Between the trade for #2 pick and now the trade with the Cowboys , the Rams have picks galore. They're making out like bandits. Now they just have to make the right picks....

I'm not sure about Tannehill, the guy just makes too many poor decisions.

His choice of girlfriends was clearly not one of those poor decisions. Yow.
