The thing that impresses me the most is this... All Under 25 years Old... Fields Montgomery Cohen Mooney Kmet Jenkins Daniel Under 28 Years Old... Robinson Whitehair Ifedi That is a core of guys and now we will have the cap space next season and more importantly the future at QB to convince the likes of Robinson and Daniel to re-up and stay here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to the argument of win now Trask isn't the best development option (Mills IMO) but he is the guy who if Brady goes down for 2-3 weeks gives them the best chance of winning right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He by far was the most accurate of them so I can, and Trask played with an OL that gave up a ton of pressure while there was zero run game to lean on. He was solid with that and moves well in the pocket, so he doesn't have to have a clean pocket to make accurate throws. 6 minutes ago, beardown3231 said: Arians usually likes QB's with strong arms Winston had a hell of an arm and sucked for him, I think he learned smart decision makers can pick when to be aggressive and when to take the easy small chunk play. That let's him dial up his own super aggressive schemes with less headaches. Plus you watch his throws from 2019 and 2020 and his arm seemed stronger because he got to work on using his legs more. Arians can probably further help him, though he'll obviously never have the strong arm Arians has had for the bulk of his coaching career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I can see your point. They were looking more for an immediate backup rather than a potential, down-the-road starter. Trask is really good, and very polished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to dislike him (Finley) but feel like he's definitely improved his game in the last couple years. Their podcast was baaaad. Well guys, this draft has surely changed a lot of things, but none more personal to me than this: I am officially hanging up my "suggest Josh Rosen at opportune times" BS. Sorry Josh, it's over. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAF-N72EX Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 On 5/1/2021 at 10:38 AM, Superman(DH23) said: Flo was considered the best or 2nd best edge in that draft, and here's the truth about Flo, Flo is GREAT at everything except sacking the QB. JAF has put up the #s before but his pass rush win rate was stupid for a guy who couldnt buy double digit sack seasons. Honestly what the Bears should have done last year was keep Flo and move him inside next to Roquan. Let Trevathan go and you have a pair of uber athletic ILBs who attack the football on every down. That was not a miss by Pace that was on the coaching staff for just not figuring out the right way to use him. Shaheen is the one everyone loves to point to, but who would be the choice in hindsight? Obviously George Kittle, who is who I wanted in that spot. The issue there is Kittle didnt go for 3 more rounds. I understand the thought process with Shaheen. Hes a 1%er. You hope you can tap that size and athleticism and make him a force, it didnt happen, but the pick makes lots of sense...except Kittle was there, who was also a 1%er and played at THE TE factory of the last decade or so. Who is the last Iowa TE who couldnt play? Yeah as a Besrs and Hawkeye fan, I'm still salty over not taking the guy who grew up a Bears fan and oh btw became the bestbdamn TE in the league. The truth is Pace has been one of the best drafters in the league since he got here but he missed on his first swing at QB, and until now was the only swing he took. People want to hold the misses up and point to those as evidence of his drafting badly, but dont look at his hits and how this team is mostly home grown with his picks The whole false narrative that Pace being terrible at drafting has been a joke. I've spent the last 2 years trying to get this thru peoples head while backing it up with facts but some people just refused to hear it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These kind of in depth personal evaluations are how you can find top talent even in the 3rd day of the draft. What I was most please to see is that Pace focused on players with higher floors who may contribute much sooner than some of his previous "flyers".
