Regarding roster needs...

Agree with 4MR's suggestion or not? 🤔

Agree on the ball hawking FS but Chinn is NOT a LB. His best position is an in-the-box SS for run defense, blitzing and some coverage e.g. TE. He’s not a FS as he’s below average in coverage. The sooner we can get a bonafide FS the better and the sooner we. An play Chinn at his natural position.

I think they need 2 pass rushers but you can't get them both in this draft. 

You can never have enough pass rushers, but I think the biggest issue is that YGM & Haynes are decent rotational guys but not at a starter level.

I think we would be fine at edge rusher (injuries notwithstanding) if we can sign or draft a starting level edge rusher to pair with Burns.

No just 2. I still don't think we really have any to speak of. I don't count Burns as any better than the other guys trying to play end for us. It's just not good enough.

My formula at DE is typically to have one big pass rusher while number two is a more complete type.

Think Peppers and Rucker...

I agree but we have neither.  Burns in my book is just another rotational end. He's just not worth paying top 10 salary to keep.  You will never convince me otherwise.

Absolutely. I wish they would play him at his natural position.

    • I mean, if Moore really wants out, then it would behoove the Bears to make it happen sooner than later. X is a lot younger and cheaper, and may be a better fit for Johnson's musings than a disgruntled, unnecessary, overpaid vet. If they can dump his salary and maybe get a fourth or so in return, it may be worth it to them. As for development, I'm not concerned. You're talking about a seeming bust, a day three guy and a UDFA. They are developing relative to their ceilings. I doubt any of them will ever command the coverage, money, or the respect that Moore has acquired. He's a tier above them. Yes, even X. 
    • IMO, if Ceedee plays against us, the game probably goes the other way. Same with Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins. Our team just isn't designed to beat teams with two high level receivers like that. But when you look at the league, how many teams really have two guys of that caliber?  There's nothing wrong with defensive adjustments, but sometimes I think a lot of fans want Evero to call a different play like a game on madden, and defensive football just isn't like that. That said, I thought we did a much better job this season against the Cowboys of flipping Jaycee and at least making them work for it, opposed to last season when they literally just lined CeeDee up on the other side of the field every single snap.  For us to just straight up switch to consistent man coverage, or a different zone, or whatever, we likely would consistently need different personnel on the field. Doing it a few times a game is a gamble and can work, but if we consistently run man coverage against the Cowboys, eventually a RB is going to beat a linebacker, or something of that nature with our personnel. Part of the reason Evero likes this scheme is that, while we have our defaults and presets, what we do is very multiple, and you can do a lot of different things pre and post snap. We are a challenging defense to read. But as you said, if guys are getting beat, it doesn't really matter what you call.
