No sign that this team is going to see any of the necessary improvements. Extension to Trevathan at triple market value shows they are still think it's 2018.

Dont see them making any sort of splash in free agency with Conklin gone. Two second rounders is nowhere near enough to rebuild an offensive line.

Looking bad.


Conklin had a decent bounce back year was slightly above being called a first round bust earlier in his career. Browns spent a lot of money on some slightly above average players.

As I have previously said, this is a great WR draft and I want the Bears to get themselves some of that in the second round. There is going to be a first round talent level at 40. If Denzel Mims is there, run to that socially distanced podium. They should get an impact, day 1 starter out of the group. Suddenly, that WR group looks nice with Robinson, a speed guy and Miller backed up by Ridley and Wims.

At OL, the fix is to sign an OG in FA. Draft an OT with the other second rounder. Again, its a pretty good OT draft. Prince Tega Wanogho should be there. I wouldn't say he is an LT on Day 1, so I think we are stuck with what we have on opening day. However, they did sign what is reported to be one of the best blocking TE in the league. That should help either of our guys.

They are going to roll with Daniels-Whitehair-Bars on the interior and I'm actually quite OK with that. But they cannot abide Leno and Massie. Both have to go, you may say Conklin is average but average is a massive improvement.

I wish they could draft WR or another position of not-pressing-need but realistically if they dont draft two starting caliber tackles this April their season is over before it started. Leno is very capable of ruining a season and Mitch/whoever at QB isn't going to be good enough to overcome Massie, who is arguably the worst starting offensive lineman in the league.




The above is correct.

Looks like Bridgewater is going to the Panthers.

Pace can save the day by signing Foles or Brady.

I keep hearing Foles as an option, where are the Bears getting 21 million this year for him? He's got 3-63 million left on that deal.

I think if you take on a guy like Foles without Jax eating money, they better be sending/exchanging draft picks or taking on one of our bad contracts (Massie/Leno)
