WindyCity Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 QB: Fields, Siemien RB: Monty, Herb, Ebner, Blasingame X: ESB Y: Mooney, Moore F [Slot]: Pringle, Jones TE: Kmet, Horsted, Griffin, O'Shaunessey LT: Borom, Jones LG: Whitehair C Patrick, Kramer RG: Thomas, Carter RT: Jenkins, Davenport We obviously could still use a veteran RG and WR. If we wanted to get really crazy I think an upgrade over Davenport is out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Good athletic ability, but line up is mostly unproven. A lot of hope and projection. Not sure that is going to OL card even with no additions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, at least we have a ton of young and athletic options and are not having losers like Musty, Dozier, and Davenport being the primary options.

WindyCity Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 This is a rumor from a friend of a friend that has been right in the past... The Bears are right in the middle of the Will Fuller market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bears are right in the middle of the Will Fuller market. Even though he would only play 3.14 games per season for us he could really make a sizeable contribution to the team when he was on the field. The WR group would undoubtedly look better with him than without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I mean if we are ranking teams by their top 3 WRs, OL and TE - is anyone worse than Bears right now on paper? If so, who? Name all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Point is it is easy to get excited about our guys and potential, but compare them to other peoples guys. Like Lovie says, they got scholarships too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Here is division for comparison. I just noticed. None of guys on Bears below was a first round pick. I think GB has just Watkins off top of my head. MN and Detroit a bunch of them are. Amon St. Brown Pringle Watkins Jefferson Jameson Williams Mooney Watson Theilen Chark St. Brown or Velus Cobb or Lazard Osborn Hockenson Kmet Tonyan Smith Decker Borom Bakhtiari Darrisaw Jackson Whitehair Runyan Ingram or Ezra Ragnow Patrick Myers Bradbury Vaitai Thomas or Dozier Newman Davis Sewell Jenkins Jenkins O'Neill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we wanted to get really crazy I think an upgrade over Davenport is out there. Pringle played inside and out in KC and I would expect that to be the case here. I don’t think anyone is projecting ESB into a primary role. After adding Moore last week and now Velus I’d say it’s probably a coin flip at best ESB makes the roster. Spotrac has ESB’s contract as $965k with zero guarantees. That should tell us a whole lot about what they expect. He and Moore both got vet minimum deals with no guarantees. That’s where ESB is competing - at the bottom of the depth chart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I think it is clear we are still missing another true X receiver and a OG to compete for snaps with some of these young guys...I suspect these guys will come from other teams as we don't seem to have a ton of interest in some of the FAs out there.

I think he makes the team and will get the first shot at X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I liked St. Brown out of college as a late round pick with upside. A lot of people did. Like more than, who was Bears 4th or 5th rounder with brother for Falcons ... Ridley. I liked him more than I liked Riley Ridley. I thought he would be a solid 3rd WR in league by now as a prospect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
