  1. What kind of terrible logic is this? They were only allowed to draft OL? Right because that's what I said
  2. Gotta applaud them? Are you kidding? A run on oline and the bears piss their pants taking a 3rd rounder with so many better players on the board. Haha, Long was, at best, going within the next 15 picks. Third rounder? He wouldn't have lasted because of the run on lineman, not because of his ability. How many snaps have you watched Kyle Long play? What do you honestly know about his ability?

Haha, Long was, at best, going within the next 15 picks. Third rounder? Right. If the Bears graded Long as the best OL left, they should've taken him. Seems like that's what happened. Waiting on a guy because you think you MAYBE can get him 2 rounds later might be fine in a fantasy football draft but it's not how NFL GM's operate.
  4. You all are giant spazzes
  5. Really, really, really unfunny.
  6. Oh shut the hell up. This person is awful. Yeah, that was stupid
  7. So the assumption here is that Rose is 1.) an idiot 2.) a liar or 3.) mentally weak?
  8. Maybe he's actually not physically ready.
  9. that's completely irrelevant to the point it shouldn't even have to be said in the first place. Okay
  10. They're not coming close to beating Miami this year so I just can't make myself care if he comes back. I get that game action is part of the recovery process. But who cares if he gets off to a slow start next year while adapting to that? It's not even a given that he will. The season lasts forever and there is plenty of time for him to get in shape as the season goes on.
  11. Is the collective poo-pooing (to borrow a phrase) of Bushrod based on anything besides the one stat from Pro Football Focus?
  12. Can he really be worse than Jake Fox at 3rd? Of course he can. Why do people phrase things this way?
  13. Such a battered woman.
  14. Looks like the Bears have interest in Cook in FA. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/18647402-419/tight-end-jared-cook-expected-to-draw-interest-from-bears.html
  15. You can name worst-case scenarios for every contract out there but at some point you need good players on a team to compete. Believe it or not, it's possible to get good players without giving out bad contracts. Again, the World Series isn't awarded to whichever team has the fewest bad contracts. Pitchers are all inherently risky but you need a lot of them to field a baseball team. It's possible that someone could get lucky and repeatedly hit on a bunch of short-term, low-risk deals year after year but that's probably not the best way to consistently build a franchise.

  17. Don't pay for past performance, pay for expected performance throughout the course of the contract.
  18. I feel like some people are relying far too heavily on completely unproven ranking systems to determine the value of football players. Exactly.
  19. Defense? Is he still solid there? I haven't watched enough to gauge that properly. not really, sadly
  20. Well that's redundant
  21. Yeah, there are few things more joyous than listening to a pedant repeatedly crap all over a young player.
  22. Maybe if he spent less time shooting commercials, he wouldn't get injured so easily. Maybe, but probably not.
