What is an impressive roster spot?

Well I just think its impressive what he is accomplishing in the OTA's. It seems impressive considering the rest of the talent at the WR position. Maybe you will think similarly after reading it.

An impressive roster spot means he's not just making the team he's dressing on Sunday and gets into the game.  WR and QB are probably the only 2 positions where you can get a good evaluation of talent in non-contact OTAs.

4.58 40 wide outs rarely get drafted in the first 2 rounds.  But if playing wide receiver was all about running from point A to point B in a straight line Usain Bolt would be in the NFL.   Not discounting speed - it's critical but a guy like Ridley, with 10" mitts and the ability to make precise cuts, could have a long NFL career. 

In 2 years the Bears have gone from a WR depth chart with a bunch of #4s to a depth chart with a bunch of #2s.

It certainly looks like Ridley has a great chance to be dressed on Sundays and be productive

Don't sleep on Miller and Wims.  I am interested to see what a healthy Miller will mean to the offense, and Wims only lacks the higher draft slot.  Wims was the go to guy when he and Ridley were on the same Bulldog team, so interested to see how that translates in the NFL.

The problem with this group of wideouts is that there is only ONE ball.  Robinson is the best bet to have a big year, but the goal is to win, not to generate gawdy stats.

Last year Robinson was one year removed from his knee injury.

Players say it takes two years to fully recover so we could see a better Robinson this year.

It will be interesting to see how this offense performs with everyone healthy and Mitch in his second year of this offense. I don’t marine Robinson, Gabriel, Miller and Cohen kept defensive coordinators up at night last year. You add more weapons and a hopefully more mature QB and it could be special if we have reasonable health.

So it turns out Burton had a sports hernia as well as the pulled hamstring the team made public.

He had surgery 2 months ago and should be ready for TC.

And I thought he had a serious anxiety condition that prevented him from playing in the playoff game.  I guess we should keep him, huh?

I have no idea about him.  His response to questions was so strange after the playoff game.

It's also strange why this was kept from the public, unless the doctors missed it.
