IMO, he's RB3 at best and the Bears need to pick up a new between-the-tackles guy.

It will be interesting to see what difference running behind this new improved line will make for him (and Swift).

I wonder how much IOL change will affect him, given he's mostly running outside. But I'd expect the Ben Johnson experience to be better for him generally.

Would've loved Reddick. Hate the idea of Sweat.

In the draft, I would love to see a trade down to get Jeanty and an extra pick in this year's draft.

Just draft Shemar Stewart at #10. He's a physical freak for his size. There could be multiple reasons for his lack of finishing off pressure, not all of them his fault. I trust Dennis Allen and Jeremy Garrett the Defensive Line coach to correct whatever flaws he might have. If he's off the board I'd trade down and pick up another Day 2 pick.

We need Edge and LT but we still have free agency and 3 picks in the first 2 rounds. Edge and LT should be the priority. Then we can focus on other positions.

Dalman and Thune wanted to be here. We are building something special.

Are the bears a destination team? I don’t think I’ve been this excited since the Mack trade

I'd say the glaring needs are DT and Edge, with LT being a "nice to have" thing, but not a need, if Jones is healthy.

Yeah. But so many holes to fill and I am not sure Poles is willing to go in draft with drafting for needs over BPA. You still need to take BPA, but let them be edge or LT and move up at draft night.

As far as I'm concerned Poles did a great job of filling the OL holes before the draft, which gives him flexibility to take BPA's vs. for need.

If we can nab a guy like Mack to add more to that flexibility, that would be icing on the cake.

Justin the Jet

New York. Not much media scrutiny or fan angst out there

I disagree. New York might have some of the biggest media attention out there. They ran Daniel Jones out of town. Literally.

But I’m happy for Justin. He has some weapons out there. Hopefully it goes better for him

Interesting to see what happens with the remaining QBs out there and the draft.

Well at least Jet fans and media don't know what a good quarterback looks like.

2/40 for Fields. Good for him- way more than I think he's worth unless they see him as a starter.

With hat kind of deal he is looking for big money next year. And yes he is being signed to start.

Talks about Rodgers to the vkinings are picking up. I personally would love for him to come back to the division and get whooped on

I think he was being sarcastic.

I love it just for the Farve parallels, and I would love to beat him.
