Todd McShay Says Darrius Heyward-Bey For The Bears On Draft Day.
by Haightminow on Mar 3, 2009 6:42 PM CST
Email
PrintDarrius Heyward-Bey, the wide-out from Maryland, 22 years old, 6'2", 206 lbs and as everyone should already know runs a blazing 4.3 second 40 yard dash.
If the Bears are fortunate enough to actually get this guy with the 18th pick in the draft, the Bears will all of a sudden appear to have a very dangerous offense.
Talk about spreading the defense, Heyward-Bey and Devin Hester? fahgitaboutit! Throw in Greg Olsen and Matt Forte, what? Holy smokes Bat Man! These are some serious weapons.
The Chicago Bears may actually be on to something here. Of course were going to need a couple more pieces to add to the o-line and even if one of those pieces is John St. Clair, the line appears to be very workable.
The Bears are close. I'm buying it.

I'll be posting something tomorrow
but Heyward-Bey seems to be the consensus choice for the Bears.
Being Who You Thought We Were Since 2005!
i think todd mcshay is right about this...
if DHB is on the board at 18.
he had the best combine of all WRs.
____itaboutit!? that is inappropriate.
but not as bad as you saying the bears are “close”. Close to what!?! I hope i’m wrong but DHB or no DHB, as i see it right now they are not “close” to winning the Super Bowl.
I think DHB is gonna be good (total hunch and for no reason other than his combine performance), but will be pissed if we pass on Harvin and he ends up being all world. do we still take DHB if Maclin is on the board?
Hopefully
we won’t have to make the Maclin/DHB decision bc it’s close. As far as Harvin goes we need a TRUE WR w/ some size and no durability issues. Harvin’s good but I’d pass on him. And we’re “close” to the playoffs, a playmaker or two away. If you get in the playoffs you’ve got a chance to win it all.
"URLACHER IS GOD"
I will indulge this...
because i think this “close” stuff is bullshit. If we are playmaker or 2 away from the playoffs close is no the operative word. First, my patience is wearing thin on JA’s ability or willingness to acquire playmakers. And then we would only be “close” to the playoffs (paraphrasing a little)
“If you get in the playoffs you’ve got a chance to win it all.” yea sure. kinda. but not really. It is called a “wild card” for a reason. A team with the mentality of trying to squeak into the playoffs is not close to anything but stuck in mediocrity. Management needs to act like 2006 was not a fluke before I believe it wasn’t.
Maclin all the way
if he’s there at #18. He’s much more polished than DHB.

the sad part is
if both are still on the board, we will probably take neither
we welcome in the latest and greatest in a long line of first round busts (maybe this new player can wear #32!)

You don't know much but that's o.k., I got's ta teach ya. Mr.No It All
Considering the offense the Bears put on the field last year and how close we still came to the playoffs, the Bears are close. A receiver and an o-lineman away from having a good offense.
Let’s continue class, The first two receivers to go are Crabtree and Maclin, the Bears MIGHT have a shot at DHB or Harvin. But if for some crazy reason Maclin is still available of course we should take Maclin. And there is still the possibility that DHB is gone.

close to playoffs DOES NOT= close to a Super Bowl
in fact all it means is that you are 3-4 wins against the NFLs best from being close. teams that made it to the divisional championship games are close. the playoffs are not/should not be an NFL team’s goal, but merely a formality on the way to the Super Bowl. The Bears needed to win 5 more tough games in a row last year to win the Super Bowl. that is not close.
You can make it sound as hard as you like....
but the bottom line is that if you make it to the playoffs you are close to the super bowl, (see the 9-7 Arizona Cardinals).

Stupid because it proves your wrong?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
my bad...
stupid as in slow of mind or marked by or resulting from unreasoned thinking.
not to mention unpersuasive.
The Cardinals were 9-7
The Bears were 9-7 and missed the playoffs. The Cardinals made it to the playoffs and then to the SB. Just admit it, your wrong.
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Cardinals being close does not = Bears being close
the logic that since the Cardinals had a 9-7 record and were close to winning the Super Bowl, therefore the Bears 9-7 record means they are close to winning the Super Bowl is such egregiously flawed logic that it is pathetic . clearly that is lost on you. you are done.
Why can't you just admit it?
My pride gets in the way sometimes also, but when your wrong you should just admit it and move on.

Anything can happen in the playoffs once you're there
Parity still rules in the NFL, and it’s proven every year. Some team, most of the time a wildcard team makes plenty of noise in the playoffs, and happens to win the SB sometimes. Let’s see…
Broncos ’97
Ravens ’00
Steelers ’05
Giants ’07
"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
i understand your point...
but it does not lead to the conclusion you want. the fact that anything can happen in the playoffs once you are there simply flatly unequivocally is not the same thing as being “close” to winning the Super Bowl. in addition all wild card teams are not created equally so extrapolating the success of previous wild card teams so that it applies to the Bears IF they even make it to the wild card is ridiculous.
No, it definitely means they're close.
If they make the playoffs, then it can be construed as being close. The head coach can come out and say…hey guys we’re real close because several WC teams have won the SB (6 totat), and even more have made it to the “big” game (9 overall). Not only that, typically WC teams are running on a “hot” streak because they had to run the table to make it there. Did you think the Bears were close to the SB when they wen’t in ‘06? I think there was a lot of doubt because how the playoffs wen’t the year prior.
"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
you're not close until you actually are close
6 of 86= 6.9%
86= 43 SBs. 2 teams in each.
So the point you peeps are trying to make is that the Bears are close to having a 6.9% chance to win the Super Bowl. YAY! who needs receivers, a quarterback, a decent offensive line or an effective secondary when you are that close. get out my face cause that’s retarded. Optimism is one thing but this “close” lunacy is ridiculous.
That's to start the season
I said when making the playoffs a team can be considered close to the SB. You’re calculating numbers that don’t apply to my original comment.
"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
Bears DID NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS
so by your own admission they are at best close to being close ie almost in a position to barely have a chance to win the super bowl…. good luck with that.
Never said they were close
My point is if a team makes the playoffs, that team is “close” to the SB. If you can say anything about the Bears, it’s that they’re not far away, but not close either. Probably somewhere towards the middle of the pack. With that said, if they get a few impact players in the draft they have a solid nucleus to get to the playoffs.
"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
ok...
but they are not acquiring impact players in free agency because they are “close”. I do not believe they are capable of identifying or willing to pay to the $ to get a few impact players in the draft. getting 1 would exceed my expectations (hello Matt Forte). if they prove me wrong i will be happy, kind of a win win. In fact i would prefer to be wrong and happy…
noing it all can be a curse as well as a blessing my friends.
JA believes there are no impact FAs...
who are worth their inflated price-tags. I don’t particularily like his stance, but I have to say I respect him for being a good business man. Here’s the link on chicagobears.com

"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
another flaw in your logic which further proves my point (as if necessary)...
the red birds’ record was 12-8 not 9-7.
people are getting caught up on 9-7 records
1. Cards finished 12-8 because they won 3 playoff games and lost the Super Bowl. so 9-7 for the cards is a snapshot being extrapolated to make unwarranted comparisons to the bears.
2. all 9-7 (9-7 for the argument’s sake) teams are not created equally. using that win:loss ratio to prove that the Bears are “close” is stupid.
Records don't tell the whole story
A 3-13 team can make the playoffs the very next year in football, not many sports have the kind of parity the NFL has. A string of bad luck, lots of injuries, controversy on and off the field can derail a team. I bet the Seahawks will come back and win the West this year now they’re healthy and have added some decent pieces.

Here's my take
If you win the division convincingly then your close, but if your a wild card team your not far away but I wouldn’t say their close by any means to winning a super bowl.
Now as far as the Bears go, don’t get me wrong I am a die hard Bears fan and there is nothing more I would love than to see a Super Bowl. But, I truly believe we have far too many gaps on our roster.
-offensive line
-safety
-outside line backer (not a fan of Nick Roach at all)
-uh wide receiver? I’m sorry I love Devin Hester, but you are no No. 1 wide receiver. I think you would be best as the slot receiver and focusing more on your return dutys, but No. 2 I can live with.
As far as WR in the draft goes,
-I am going to catch a lot of grief over this and I might be wrong, Jeremy Maclin won’t be the next big thing. I think Hakeem Nicks will be the best WR in this years draft class, but I would also like DHB also. I think the best thing to do would be to draft in this order:
-WR
-T
-S
-OLB
-QB
-G
-DE
I'm with you
Nicks will be the best wr out of this class. Would be perfect for us. Playmaker, great hands, guy would be a first down machine. 18 would be too high for him though.
But he will probably be gone before our second pick, right?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
If he is the best WR
in the class, and Crabtree is going top 5, why is 18 too high for Nicks?
DEJESUS!!!
tomas21gunsalute.
Who would you take if you had your choice, DHB, Harvin or Nicks?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Could be a major steal like Forte
our offense wouldn’t look too bad. Just get a secondary man, then we are set I guess. I wouldn’t mind taking a look at Marvin Harrison as well though..
#34: You'll be missed!
Sounds good......
RT Phil Loadholt in the second round, safety and OL in the third( Barrien compensation pick) GO BEARS !

ANY TALENT PLEEEEEEAAASSEE!!!
JA is a horses arse and will probably pass on anyone. Another low brow play like our new OL who was gonna get cut and we go ahead and trade for him, and pay more money than he’ll probably be worth.
Check out the track record – Grossman – Benson, jeez it’s miracle he can find his ass with both hands. Is he even breathing? Seriously, it looks like he’s asleep, maybe a coma.
Todd – Love the play – DHB would be AWESOME and may even give them hope to go the next level, which by the way is Division Champs. With all the other moves in our division this off season, we should keep our hopes high and expectations low.
are you serious
granted ja hasnt really gone out of his way through free agency in his tenure, He has still done a pretty granted JA hasnt done good job putting together this team through free agency but I believe when it comes to the draft he hasnt done pretty well. You through out names like ced ben and rex ( who by the way were both on a superbowl team,) he has also drafted the like of lance briggs, peanut tillman, tommie harris, devin hester, and matt forte. Everyone rags on him for sucking at drafting offense, however he has done pretty well at drafting defense, which I believe is the reason he got the job, chicago is and has been first and foremost a defensive team. Yes, our defense has sucked as of late but I dont think that was ja’s fault he put together a superbowl caliber defense just two years ago, the step back we have taken I believe can mostly be attributed to injuries and poor coaching. So step back there ace and place blame where it should be placed.
"snuffalufagus fucks my shit up"
Don't forget Olsen too
I believe Williams and Beekman (started last year) are good draft picks as well, and they should pay off this season. Don’t count out Bennett either; typically it takes three years to evaluate a draft.
"I'm not so mean. I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something." - Dick Butkus
I can't be the only one
I can’t be the only one that believes there is only slightly greater than zero percent chance that the Bears actually end up having a first round pick. This year just feels like one of those typical Angelo years where he trades down to pick a “diamond in the rough” or a couple value picks – you know, like Daniel Manning or Grossman/Haynes.
LOL
I wouldn't mind that...
There really isn’t a superstar player who is going to be available at 18. Plus we have a lot of holes, so another couple of high picks would help the team add depth and talent.
I am not sold
on DHB. He is very, very fast. But so far he hasn’t shown that he is a football player, all we know is he’s a track star.
He didn’t have much of a qb last year, I understand that. But to expect him to go from pedestrian numbers in college to first-round pick numbers in the pros, when he’s coming into a sub-par passing offense with a sub-par qb seems a leap of faith to me.
What is the difference between him and Troy Williamson, who similarly shot up draft boards because he was so fast? Neither did much in college, and Williamson has proven that he’s not a football player. The only difference I see is that DHB is an inch taller and a little heavier.
I do not want this dude. He has bust written all over him. If they take him, I hope I’m wrong, but I’d rather they just don’t take him. I wouldn’t mind taking a chance on a player like this in the third round or so and see if he could turn into a football player (like Barnard Berrian), but in the first, with all that guaranteed money? No way.
DEJESUS!!!
agreed
i don’t care who had the better workout at the combine. maclin was the consensus second best receiver in the draft.if he falls to us, it would be unwise not to pick him.

I'd prefer a WR in either FA, or the 2nd round of the draft.
I really believe we have a bigger need in shoring up our OLine… and the 1st round of the draft would be a great place to pick up a guy that could make a difference for the next 6-8+ years…
Things will get better as they improve...
i think the bears really like loadholt
who will be around in the 2nd
i would definitely like DHB or J-Mac
by SamuraiMike50 on Mar 4, 2009 12:53 PM CST up reply actions
Loadholt is enormous
and will be an excellent run blocker. But he is very weak at pass protection. He will only be able to play left tackle in the NFL. I think if we go OLine in the 1st round, we will be able to get a guy who is solid at both run blocking and pass protection.
Things will get better as they improve...
Who is your o-lineman of preference.

the tackle position that is can be weak in pass protection, therefore Loadholt will play RT.

What baffles me
Is Kirwan on NFL.com has us drafting Oher, putting him at LT, and sliding WIlliams to RT. Hmmmm.
"URLACHER IS GOD"
Is Oher a better run blocker or pass protector?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Williams and Oher
will both either play LT or guard. Neither has the strength to push people back in run blocking like you’d need to at RT, especially on a run-team like the Bears.
Kirwan doens’t know what he’s talking about.
DEJESUS!!!
Oher has been getting different reviews from different scouts.
I think he could play LT or RT, but there are some concerns about his speed. He often times got beat by speed rushers, and often got called for holding.
He will definitely benefit from NFL coaching, and has experience playing guard (his freshman year) and some scouts are even throwing it out there that if OT isn’t his thing in the NFL, he could end up being an All-Pro OG.
If he is available, I’d take him in a heartbeat. Whatever position they decide on would work for me. He will be an excellent OLineman in the NFL.
Things will get better as they improve...
I can picture him being a dominate guard.

Andre Smith didn't work out at the combine...

believe it or not
i like the line as it is. i have faith in williams playing LT as do i have faith in the omiyale signing. We still have Buenning who is actually a decent lineman at guard. I’d rather the Bears spend their first round pick on a proven Playmaker. Nicks might not even be on the board for us in the second, but there will be plenty more linemen.
OH! STEWIE!! GET OUT THE WAY BOY! GET OUT THE WAY!

That would be the big mistake we want to avoid.
Thinking that our line is fine. I would like to see us get a first or second round lineman and resign St.Clair. Then we would be looking strong.

St. Clair gives us depth.
You want to go into the season with what we have? O.k., let us have one injury on the line and we would be in big trouble. And not to mention that we still are not sure that Chris Williams is ready. And Omialye has only started one game. You think the o-line is good to go? Your dreaming.
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
so he gives us depth but not a strarter role
if that’s the case, we can draft for depth in later rounds instead of signing a 32-year old mediocre lineman.

It would be very wise for the Bears to sign St.Clair.
He is very durable and he can play any position. It would be wise to have St.Clair. Injuries are bound to happen and St.Clair would give us experienced depth.
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
I don't know how anyone could
have faith in any of our lineman, except maybe Kreutz. None of the guys we have have played above passable at the NFL level. Williams is a high pick, but has a bad back, which is easily the worst possible injury a lineman could have (except maybe decapitation).
We have no RT (Omiyale is not a RT or the Panthers wouldn’t have moved up last year for Otah or moved Gross to RT the game Otah missed, our guard play has sucked (as evidenced by the low YPC our RBs have had the last few years), Kreutz’s play is falling off, and we have an expensive question mark at LT.
I debate what we should do in the first as well, but it’s mostly because we have holes at so many critical positions.
DEJESUS!!!
If you had a choice between Percy harvin or DHB....
who would you take?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
O.k. but if you HAD to take one.
Harvin or DHB
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Well
not Harvin because we need size at the other wideout position. Although Harvin is a playmaker which DHB has not shown yet..
I like DHB.
Yes, because he is so fast. His speed would spread the defense making opportunities for Hester, Olsen and Forte.
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Harvin
because he is versatile and a proven playmaker. He’s a football player. DHB hasn’t done anything special outside the combine.

No
Harvin is Reggie Bush minus the bulk, talent, and an actual position.

No way...
I don’t root against the Gators unless the are playing the Tigers. Nothing personal against Harvin. But, the analogies are dead on. I like the kid, and maybe he’ll be fine in the NFL. But in my opinion, he is not a top-half first round selection. He’d work best as a Colt or Patriot or some team similar that could use him in the slot.

I just don't understand how you could co sign what ChiFan said.
That Harvin has no talent. If you can’t see that this kid has talent than I would say you must have something personal against him. Like being pro LSU would help me to understand. Because Percy Harvin has tremendous talent.

Trade down
Even know I don’t normally like a GM to trade down, Angelo admitted it to the public that the Bears had more holes than they’ve ever had. If the value isn’t there at #18 trading down makes sense. Most likely he’ll move to the top of the 2nd, and from there he can possibly nab Nicks and Loadholt. I also wouldn’t put it past JA to draft a DE with the #18 pick. Although, that wouldn’t happen unless Jerry added a RT in free-agency.

They are now to the point of tolerating you because you wouldn’t go away. Like the homeless puppy that just won’t leave no matter how many times you kick it.
And at this rate, by the time the season starts, everyone will like you.
So just hang in there sport!

I feel like God has me here for a reason.
And no matter how much I feel that everyone might hate me I still feel a common bond and duty to stand with and protect my fellow followers of the Bears. I love you guys.
