Bears Offseason Thread (Trestman new HC, pg 37)

[pitchcs]

Like Sulley said, Kyle Long is the highest rated rookie through the first two weeks of preseason...

That draft day thread could end up being pretty hilarious.

 

It was pretty hilarious to me at the time.

 

This. This site can produce some grade A overreaction at times.

 

 

OMG, the middle of that thread is classic.

The pick sucked then and it'll still suck. I stand by my overreaction.

Some people really acquitted them poorly ok draft day. Hope Long keeps it up.

Anybody with a brain? The pick was TERRIBLE as far as draft value goes. We can't seriously be giving Emery a winning pass after 2 pre-season games....

 

You had at least 3-4 players that fell in the draft that were great value fitting a need of the Bears. CB Trufant/Rhodes DT Sharrif Floyd and TE Eifert just to name a few.

 

 

Emery's first draft has really shaped up to be a pretty solid miss. Granted there's still some time left, but you cant be too enthusiastic about a first round DE that can't win a starting job, defend the run and that's strictly a situational pass rusher. The 3rd and 4th round picks will/have been cut.

I'm still pissed at not taking Eiffert, Long doing well or not.

Well to pick the 3rd ranked Guard off of the board, one who only played in 4 games at the collegiate level is not exactly a winning draft strategy .

I'd rather him overpick and get a guy that pans out than follow the draft handbook and pick a highly touted guy that doesn't pan out. We've followed the latter road. Lets see how the former goes.

Think he was using hyperbole to refer to how little experience Long had in college.

#Bears announce following players out tonight: Henry Melton, Earl Bennett, Jonathan Scott, Matt Blanchard, Armando Allen, Pat Mannelly

[Wilson A2000]

Bears game starting now but not on NFL network for another hour?

[KaiserCesar]

In Chicago, on now on FOX. I'm guessing NFLN is trying to get back-to-back games in.

[Butterscup1679666578]

if anyone wants a stream PM me, i found one because i'm also in NFL Network hell

[Butterscup1679666578]

love that quick hitter to Alshon on 3rd and 1. that should be open every time

[KaiserCesar]

Passes to Jeffery and Bennett, what will the media do now...

[Butterscup1679666578]

Matt Bowen ‏@MattBowen41 now

 

That's a check at the line between Cutler & Jeffery on 3rd down... See the CB in an off-man alignment, throw the quick 1-step slant.

 

HOLY [expletive] AUDIBLES

[Butterscup1679666578]

great protection, great ball, marshall won't drop that during the season. good opening drive.

Good times.

[Butterscup1679666578]

nice burst by forte there. raiders are really bad.

[KaiserCesar]

Matt Flynn sees nothing

[rawaction]

Hah. The Raiders are terrible. Forte goes untouched on a flare in the backfield, when it should have been 3 yard loss.
