Inviting 10 prospects seems like overkill, I know they said they wanted players with good stories not just top ten selection potential but still if Freeman gets past the Broncos second pick and ends up where all the playoff teams pick he could be there awhile. And all the while while these guys are waiting we are going to have to hear their story like a million times. Look I didn’t care that So-and-So overcame the death of his cat to play in the SEC.

so the dumb part of the trade was on the Broncos end. Everyone here on the WCG could have told you that.

Just found that amusing… that’s all.

I’ve seen him play in Charlottesville a couple of times. He seems completely over his season ending injury that kept him entirely out of the 2007 season. He’d be a steal

get another DUI and sack yourself out of the league

i swear i read that on here from a “journalist” but i can’t find it now. anyway we really need to trade up. the article referenced the Jags drafting Robiskie at #39… to wit I say the Jags will address WR in the 1st round via Maclin.

Still we should trade up for Harvin or Robiskie

Regarding the Kiper mock draft. I agree that the Bears need to fill out that WR spot if there is a decent player available with the 2nd round pick. If not, then I still would rather see an OL taken than a DB. We seem to do well with mid-round and low-round DB choices over the last several years. I like the Orlando Pace choice but his age, injuries, and the fact that the Rams just let him go, make me worry a little. Chris Williams is a complete unknown and when a team changes their 1st round pick’s position for an aging veteran, I wonder if the team isn’t convinced he’s as good as they had hoped. Sheffer should at least be solid, but probably not the next Jimbo Covert either. I disagree on our safety situation. Mike Brown hasn’t been the player we remembered him to be for a few years due to injuries, age, etc. With the signings of Bullock and Earl, you have two players who are relatively young but have quite a bit of starting experience in the league. Earl, especially, can be a surprise. He was an excellent player at Notre Dame and started 31 of 37 games with the Texans before his foot injury. That injury is almost a full 2 years healed, so he could be a good player for us. I’m not saying either of them are the second coming of Ronnie Lott or even Gary Fencik, but I don’t think the cupboard is bare there either.

pan Denver instead of us for the trade.

How can he say the Broncos made the worst move of the offseason, but not pick the Bears as one of the best? Kind of a double-standard if you ask me.
