I like the Tonyan signing.  The competition between him and Kmet should make both better.

Before we get too excited about Foreman.  Yes, he's big and fast.  I watched many of his games at Texas and he ran through and by defenders.

If you total up all his pass receptions in college and the pros they would about equal the number of catches Montgomery had last season.

I don't remember if he had bad hands but teams rarely threw the ball to him.

I don't doubt the Bears may still draft a running back around the 3rd but the signing of Foreman probably means Bijan Robinson (another Texas kid) is not an option in R1.

This is an off tackle not a 3 technique but appears an improvement of sorts

You can smell the fear on the Bears' rivals....

 Assuming there is staying at #9 :

 RB

 OL

 DL

 DE

 ?

They won't take a RB in round 1.

If Carter or Wilson are taken he's the BPA.  But logically the Bears should not go HB given their other needs and that they have 2 very solid HBs already.

So you're probably right...

A double trade down with Houston and Carolina was discussed.  Once Moore became part of the package, Poles couldn't wait any longer and pulled the trigger.
