  1. I think that’s what happened. They thought they’d get Henderson and he went right before. So they traded 41 back thinking at least one of the EDGE picks would be there, but they were all gone. I think they should have just kept 41 and picked EDGE. They’ll never say it though but that seems like a reasonable explanation. I don’t think they got what they hoped for from this draft
  2. I’m not a fan of the end result but I was OK with getting two 2nd rounders for one.
  3. Basically they trade back to get an extra 2nd round pick then traded back again to get an extra later pick.
  4. ESPN isn’t broken
  5. I feel like the players they want are gone right before they pick so they trade back.
  6. Traded back again
  7. Was Ozzy one of them?
  8. Cubs have the best run differential in MLB, are the only team over .500 against winning teams in the division, and other than 3 games have only played winning teams.
  9. They obviously feel like they’re going to destroy QBs every Sunday. No need to take EDGE
  10. Maybe it’s mostly not seeing a great value/position pick available at 41 so they move back and gain an extra later in the 2nd. I’ll withhold judgement on this for now.
  11. I read 4-6 months. Hopefully closer to 4.
  12. Loveland played with a pretty serious shoulder dislocation most of last year, which required surgery/ reconstruction in January. I guess the doctors said it’s going to be fine but I have a little PTSD when it comes to the Bears using a 1st round pick on a player with an injury issue. My sister and nephew are UM alums and are stoked by the pick. I would rather have taken Warren. We’ll see…
  13. The lack of top competition does give me just a twinge of concern for Jeanty. I don’t think he will be there anyway.
  14. F’in F that disease. RIP to a great Bear and a completely authentic guy. I’m glad to say I had the chance to briefly meet Steve at training camp years ago. Exactly the same person with or without the cameras. Bear down brother.
  15. PCA - please let this be permanent and not a streak
  16. Yeah, but with the way he was blocking the bag. There’s no chance for him to hang onto the bag or drag his foot over it.
  17. I might be willing to consider that Wicks is not good.
  18. Wicks did a good job keeping it together and limiting the damage. His throw wasn’t great but totally catchable.
  19. It’s time to settle this baseball game by not playing baseball.
