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

Less an offensive lineman, the Bears are building a pretty nice offense around Fields.  I like Tonyan, and what's not to like about Moore?    Pick up an offensive tackle early and another running back, and I am good with what we have.

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.

I would like to see Blasingame get some looks in the passing game.  He could be a poor man's Juszczyk in this offense if given a chance IMO.

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...

His comp is Adrian Peterson…and I don’t mean the former Bear…

Do you pass on that if he’s BPA?

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.
