next year's 2nd and a 4th this year

 

Eh not too bad

Next years 2nd round pick is enormous if this team isn't a 9+ win team this year.

 

It's okay, next year we'll just trade our 3rd AND the 2nd from 2020 to move back up again... :barf:

 

I DO like Miller, but wish they hadn't done it

Anthony Miller Players Tribune piece

 

Dear NFL GM’s,

 

My name is Anthony Miller, and I think I’m the best wide receiver in this draft class.

 

Last season I led the nation in touchdown receptions and finished third in receiving yards. I mention that off the top because it showcases what I’ve always done on the football field: Produce.

 

But for the purposes of this letter, I don’t want to focus strictly on the stats, because those things speak for themselves. Instead, I want to talk about the even bigger reason you should draft me, which is something that’s inside of me. It can’t be measured with a stopwatch or a scale.

 

I know there are a lot of really talented players you’re looking at. And pretty much all of them have a deep love for this game. But regardless of their passion, it’s hard for me to imagine another person who loves football as much as I do. More than anything else, it’s that love which has gotten me where I am.

 

I’ve never had the luxury of getting by on athleticism or potential. But I’ve overcome that because football isn’t just a sport for me. This is my identity. And I plan to have a really, really long career.

 

Hopefully it will be for your team.

i honestly think it just might be

 

this horsefeathers happens in the nfl all the time and i'll be damned if i don't love almost everything that has happened since the glorious day john fox was fired.

 

the only thing that gives me pause is the division, but those teams are subject to nfl wacky variance too so who knows.

told you [expletive] they were going after a wr

Were you the one who thought it had to be at 8 though lol?

 

no I'm the one who wanted it 1st day. but i forgot that the NFL doesn't draft 2nd round on 1st day anymore, so I would have been fine in rd 2.

It might, and it better be.

nuh uh, you said if they drafted Nelson at 8 that meant they were comfortable with White at WR.

 

And dont call me a dick.

what are you 9 years old? nuh uuuh. nuh uhhh.

 

I said the fact they let Meredith go meant they were more comfortable with White which meant they probably felt Meredith was going to have health issues. like his muthafucking knee. jesus. read.

a #2 and a #4 for a #2 Pace is a horsefeathering ametuer

 

Next years #2 obviously has less value than a 2 pick next year. A number 4 this year is tough to give up but the Bears dont even have a 3rd rounder this year so instead of a 1,2 and 4, they have a 1,2 and 2. I don’t know I’m not an expert in these things but it doesn’t seem terrible to me
