There's probably some truth to the last sentence but I think Underwood, despite some of his weaknesses has an in-game coach, does a nice job of changing his system to fit his personnel. I think Illinois is the favorite to land him.
Andrej is a big one to keep. I feel strong about Blackwell coming over unless he picks Michigan, but dad played for U of I so that helps. Blackwell and Andrej in the backcourt would be fun.
I know we are focusing on the defense but we got a 2nd round pick for DJ Moore. That is incredible. We now have 3 picks in the top 60. You would like to think all 3 will push to be starters on this roster. You will feel better about the defense if all 2 or 3 selections are on that side of the ball.
I agree with all of this. The only thing I'm frustrated with is the D-Line, specifically EDGE. You have to think it would be addressed once or twice with our first 4 picks but previous drafts would say otherwise too depending on what's on the draft board at the time.
I know everyone is excited about the future, as am I, but we had so many opportunities to win last night and I can't get past that right now. However, not sure if we would have had a chance at Seattle.
Should the Bears have run the ball with 4 seconds left? I almost would have rather seen that, but Caleb has been clutch in the past so I understand keeping the ball in his hands.
