Well they have shown that they can handle losing... not sure that's a real benefit though

Well not really. This shows things I didnt know near the bottom about Claypool.

2 things.

I read that Claypool wasn't that committed to learning the playbook after joining the Bears.  Anyone else hear that?   That might explain why he would go stretches where he was totally ignored.  He's in a contract year so we'll probably see his best this season.

More and more articles about the Bears and Bijan Robinson.  I've seen just about every game of his at TExas.  Actually met him briefly in the team hotel before a game in Dallas last season (photo op for the wife).  But he hung around with the fans and was very accommodating.    But aside from that - he's just an awesome talent.   

Makes no sense for the Bears to draft him.  Running backs just don't get drafted in R1 and have short shelf lives.  And the Bears just have too many needs on both lines.  Solid running back depth with Herbert, Foreman and Homer.   Nah, no way will the Bears draft him...
