Desai alone won't fix the defense.  Watching the playoffs we saw what aggressive linebackers and DBs can do.

Got to hope Quinn rebounds.  Could use help at every defensive position:  OLB, ILB, D-line, NB, and safety.

Bears aren't in a good spot to get a top QB without giving up a ton to do it. I agree, Pace is in a terrible spot with virtually no one believing he's up to the task, and for good reason.

I read that Mitch wants no part in coming back with Nagy, and Nagy wants no part of Mitch.  That ship has sailed, and I wish Mitch all the best of luck.

The CFL beckons. Use Henry as a reference.

Finally some intelligence:

The realization that you cant protect any QB with an Oline like the Bears have is refreshing, not that I believe that guy is the right pick @ #20

I've talked of a scenario where the Bears take Trask out of Florida in round 2.  I've read more about him and kind of soured on him.  Big but not a big arm and he's not very mobile.

I'm thinking maybe Kellen Mond in round 3.  Might have to trade down our picks in round 1 or 2 to improve the round 3 pick, but if the Bears kept R1 and R2 they could get a quality tackle or two or maybe get a good corner in R2 to replace Skrine and eventually replace Fuller.

Mond threw for 19 TDs against only 3 picks against quality SEC opponents.  He is very mobile and has good size.

They dont have that many openings. Only play 5. Good grief. We have more needs than just Oline.

But do we have bigger needs than OL?

A franchise QB is obviously the most important need.

In reality, we also need 3/5 of an offensive line...

You only counting on Whitehair and Daniels as viable starters?

I think the coaching staff has more hope for Bars and Mustipher.

I think Bars and Mustipher were both fine as fill-ins, and fine as depth...but we could do much better.
