Don't care who they draft and when as long as those they do draft work out and are good :D

There are going to be misses, but Poles HAS to hit more than miss in order to get this team back to real relevance and that has not been so for the Bears in a LONG time....

Billings is a very good run stopping DT - just not a pass rusher.  And he's only signed for one year.

Both those FA DEs can slide inside on passing downs.  Neither is a major threat as a DE. 

2nd wave of free agency should  have the Bears adding a DE and a RT which could also coincide with the Bears first 2 picks...unless Carter slips.

more changes coming:

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/bears-ol-teven-jenkins-says-124554863.html

Makes sense as Davis has played the RG position 4 years now.  He's a quality signing (3 years) and not yet 27. 

It's not like Jenkins has been play RG his whole career.  There will be some adjustments moving to the left side but he'll have time to nail it down. 

If Bears can snag a decent RT this O-line could be pretty good.

I just saw a new mock today that pointed to the Lions taking a CB and not Carter, leaving Carter to the Bears at 9. That possibility leaves the Bears without a stud RT @ 9.

I think there is going to be a short quick run on OTs Beginning @ 9. I doubt there is going to be anything decent left for the 2nd round.

There will be some decent prospects for OT late in the 2nd…they’re just less likely to be great…

For any subscribers to "The Atlantic", Dane Brugler's "The Beast" draft guide is out.

Any number of teams not looking at QB could take Carter before the Bears. 

Additionally, teams drafting after the Bears could trade up right in front of the Bears pick. 

This is not one of those lonely guy moments where Carter is sitting in the green room all alone.

I think the move of Jenkins shows they will draft a RT early to start.  They want a seasoned veteran at RG to support.  Braxton J with Tevon on left side is two younger players but both solid.  I think that logic makes sense.

I dunno about that - I still think the OTs will be flying off the board in R1 and early R2.

But it might not matter to Poles if he's got his eye on a small school guy like BJ.

There are more teams needing offensive linemen than we tend to realize.

Yup absolutely correct. Too scary to be trading down willy nilly for the hope to find some diamond like the Jones kid last year. There are reasons they are graded that low.

Nobody is talking about trading down from 1-9 to the fifth round.
