Hey we all wanted a TE now we've got one. Truth is I don't know much about Olsen but he seems like a good pick here for us.

 

Yeah, many teams don't view their TE's as an additional lineman, and they do just fine. It's time for the Bears to join the 21st century at this position.

 

I'm good with this pick.

thanks for taking as long as possible bears

 

Don't see why any team shouldn't take the whole time limit.

 

If you know who you're going to pick, just go up and pick. They've been showing video of Olsen with a Bears hat on for a while now. Just announce the pick and lets move on.

you're a trip man

 

well come on, everyone knew he was going to the bears before the chargers even picked... what were the bears doing, waiting around to see if oakland would offer their 2008 first round pick to move up?

Ewww...Olsen's agent is Rosenhaus.

 

yeah, ony negative, he'll probably demand top 15 salary because he was supposed to go that high...

Isn't his dad one of our coaches? I don't think we have much to worry about. The deal will get done.

I'm sure ESPN has nothing to do with it.

gary horton says bears are picking olsen

 

They showed Olsen putting on a Bears hat about 5 minutes ago, so he's not quite going on a limb...:D

Man I'm really happy with this pick. I wasn't sure about taking him at the beginning of the day but I've definitely come around to it after seeing highlights/reading scouting reports. Hopefully he can improve his blocking.

 

Well, at least blocking is a skill that can be taught. You can't teach a guy to run faster or jump higher.

:lol: Enjoy that, Bears fans

 

He's got his hooks into our roster to the screws. The Bears are one of the ever-shrinking pool of teams that actually don't mind dealing with him.

The Bears had been trying to trade their pick the whole time.

I agree completely. I'm thrilled with this pick right now.
