Maybe it is somewhat overrated, but the Bears have lacked any type of nastiness for awhile on the line. Clearly you want other things as well. I have been watching some videos and reading more on him today. He is an impressive guy. Hopefully it works out. I am glad they addressed the line.

Jenkins seems to fit the profile of a nasty dude but it seemed his colleagues were more interested in making sure Jenkins used the correct pronouns when addressing the people who took shots at Fields.

Fortunately, those guys are no longer on the team. I think Long was the last red ass we had.

“Nastiness” might be the most over-rated trait to look for in an o-lineman. Give me a technically sound guy with quick feet, good hand usage and great balance who works hard at his craft and you can have the nastiest guy.


u sound like a queer

This seemed to be a Nagy issue. Hopefully this changes now that he has been gone.

Nagy had no interest in running the ball, and Pace did not think offensive line was a priority, he loved chasing QB's and WR's, but saw no value in interior lineman, their collective mindset resulted in the worst roster in the NFL and the team with the worst record in the NFL.

Poles is rebuilding the roster with guys he feels are coachable and will be solid NFL starters, avoiding potential boom or bust guys.

Will it work, decisions like taking Wright over Carter are what makes or breaks an NFL GM, but you have significantly upgraded your RT position, and may have your LT and RT spots filled with guys on rookie deals for the next several years, tons of work to be done, especially on the defensive line, but Poles is taking the long view here and at the very least he creating an environment where you will get a true read on Fields.

should I be troubled that Kevin Warren was also in on the call to Wright last night or is it nothing?

Ted Phillips gave me PTSD

I literally just watched the video. I was struck by the language Wright used to talk to his superiors, but I'm old.

that's a red flag, they probably would have traded down some more to avoid possible character issues.

Wright definitely is not a silver tongued devil.
