WindyCity Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Having a young upside rusher is nice. Whatever reps he gets will be building something. Whatever reps Lynch got were a waste. He wasn’t providing anything and his development was long done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It IS true that the genetics involved give me a little more hope, but the same can be said of one Ryan Pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Pace this is throwing your star player's little brother a bit of money...Mack doesn't get close to making this team or even the PS.

AZBearsFan Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 1 hour ago, G08 said: Undrafted players make the league alllll the time man This is true. With that said, Ledarius Mack didn’t play in any all star games, wasn’t a combine invitee and didn’t even get a write up from any major draft publication that I could find despite multiple publications writing up like 500 guys. Even as UDFA go he’s an incredibly short odds long shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have to observe his performance and demeanor on the field before I grant him any titles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are over 350 UDFA's signed annually and the vast, vast majority amount to nothing. I certainly don't ever go into this post-draft period expecting the Bears to find a major contributor. Pace has been lucky with some of his-Callahan and RRH. EDIT: just saw my original post said <0%. Well.. that's impossible. I meant to say <1% Edited April 27, 2020 by beardown3231 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We traded next years 4th rounder for this guy. So that means they had a at least a high 4th round grade on him. Or they just like burning draft picks. Anyway, it means they are really high on this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnesota had 13 day 3 picks on Saturday so they were intentionally giving up those picks for some next year. Those picks a year in advance are actually worth a round worse, so the Bears, in theory, dealt a 5th in 2021. The Bears also figure to have 4 comp picks next year, likely all in round 6 with the small chance of one sneaking into the 5th. You can't trade comp picks until they become official, so when the draft rolls around next year, the Bears can easily get that 4th back if they want to (in which they'll take a corner ).

I don't buy that a next year 4 is worth the same as a this year 5th or a 3rd to a 4th and so on. I know that is way it is done and that is the theory. But it isn't money that is earning interest over time. A higher pick is a higher pick to me. I'd rather have the higher selection unless I think guy in front of me is really misvalued and has slipped without a good reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
