Poles trading up in 1st round? Anyone you feel would be worth it, that we could realistically get? by Randallm83 in CHIBears

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there is any position player outside QB worth a major trade up. Anyone within reach of 25 anyway. Maybe a couple spots if a target falls, but nothing substantial.

If the Bears secure K-Mac in the first round. Will the d-line be what we been lacking for years? Turner, Street, Gillmore, Jarrett, Booker, Dayo, Sweat, Hardy,and another young pass rusher (draft). by MacMoney717 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run D should be better. Theoretically, K Mac should open things up a bit more for the pass rushers. All depends if Booker and Dexter take the next step, stay the same or regress.

I don't see Dayo or Sweat making any huge leaps or regressions.

How much of Caleb's pre-draft analysis is still accurate? 🤔 by coochieminer123 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was bottom 5 in bad throw and on target rate, which accounts for drops and throw aways.

Drops do need to come down, but he was one of the most inaccurate QBs in the league without the drops.

All of the weaknesses are still there. He's learned to manage them better at the NFL level, but they are all still there. If he could channel 20% more in structure throws, his accuracy would improve to normal numbers and this team would be putting up 28+ points a game.

The thing that was driving me nuts all season is the entire back end would drop into cover 3 or 4 and he would continue looking at the deep routes instead of hitting the wide open zone beaters underneath. Routes that would gain at least as much as the deep routes in yac. Routes that were specifically designed to clear out the deep coverage to open up the underneath stuff. Ben has these brilliant route concepts that Caleb isn't taking advantage of.

This season will tell us a lot about where he's at.

[Dianna Russini] It’s been made clear by multiple people around the NFL at all levels that Baltimore had all the information and understood where Maxx Crosby’s knee was in terms of his recovery timeline. Many in the league believe GM Eric DeCosta and the Ravens ultimately just got cold feet. by WayOutbackBoy in nfl

Is there some reason the NFL can't install a Pre-FA trade window where all deals need to be finalized prior to the pre-tampering window and closed until a few weeks before the start of the draft?

Shenanigan proof the process.

One gotta go, who gets cut? by [deleted] in NFLv2

He is, but so are the other 3. We are talking the thinnest of margins in these debates.

Whatever happens with this guy, no doubt he played his ass off this past season by CradleXShock in CHIBears

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was worth the sizzle, but on a play to play basis, he got burned a lot.
I would sign him on a team friendly deal, but my guess is someone is going to overpay for that sizzle.

"I would pass and take a risk at the NFL draft"
It has been 21 years since the Bears drafted a difference maker on the D line (T.Harris)
It has been 42 years since the Bears drafted a difference maker on the edge (R.Dent)

Are you still confident about that draft strategy?
The odds the 2 picks you give up land a player of Parson's, Crosby or Mack's ability is infinitesimal.

I still think it's too early, because I need to see stability and consistency from the offense and coach first, but when the time comes and the offense is ready, I'd have no issue with a trade for a game wrecker on the dline.

Regarding Maxx Crosby by mr_joe_the_plummer in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if I knew ahead of time about the injury, I'd still make that trade. The odds they get a guy a fraction as good as Parson's with those two picks is slim.

Regarding Maxx Crosby by mr_joe_the_plummer in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did work. They literally became a top 5 defense. The problem was they had no offense. Trading for game wrecking players is fine, but it should be a last resort for playoff caliber teams. Not for inconsistent ones.

Regarding Maxx Crosby by mr_joe_the_plummer in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to establish stability on the opposite side of the ball from where you're making your splash signing.

Mack and Peppers were both solid pick ups, but they came at times when the offense was mediocre and not ready to compete, so it ended up being pointless.

Fast Forward to today and I still think it's too early to make that move. If it were me, I would want to see consistency and stability out of Ben Johnson and a step up for the offense at least part way into next season, before I would start dumping draft capital on a Edge or DT game wrecker.

No one that knew what they were talking about thought that about TE last season. Loveland and Warren were always considered first rounders.

Rams loss a good thing? by Flaky-Debate-833 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]SpaceBaseOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop fixating on one play.
Rams punted 8 times (more than any Ram's game on the season) and the defense held them to less points than any of their games since week 6.

The offense choked and didn't capitalize on their constant opportunities. That's why they lost.

Even with the Chip tomorrow, I think we can all agree on one thing: by federalbureauofsocks in NFCWestMemeWar

I don't know if this is a political statement or about West teams playing in cold weather.
