lol he's not lasting to the 2nd. I'm not even a big fan of his but Combine sealed him up as a late first at worst.

Combine has me crushing on Adetomiwa Adebawore. 6'2, 280, 4.49. Decently long arms and 27 reps too. Raw as hell but you can't teach that size/speed combo, hard to imagine a better project to take over YGM's spot.

There are some very intriguing 3-4 ends that can kick inside when needed.

I was a fan to bring him in as a potential Shaq replacement earlier in the process.  Now with the defensive scheme switch and his exceptional combine I give up. He will land with a perennial favorite in the later part of the first.  This combine gives credence to why we are switching to a 3-4 though. The linebackers and "undersized" DE's OLB types are showing out.  Give me a Owen Pappoe and Will McDonald and call it a day.

Wouldn't be shocking to see him go to Chicago with our #9 overall pick.

I think jalen carter will be there and they will be dancing in the streets......but if any team form 8-14 picks smith, its fair........thats how hot he is currently. Like above he was the "QB bust plan" fall back for me.....

I’m pretty tuned into the Bears and have been accurate on what I’ve said about not trading Fields, what their plan was for this off-season, and had the trade down to a T outside of Moore because I thought there’s no way we give him up, but I knew the didn’t want Burns…

We have to see how green agency plays out but there’s a good chance they are still taking Carter at 9 if he drops. 
 

If they can sign Hargraves and Jones up the middle they can move on from that and focus on offensive line or edge. 
 

As of right now I see the Bears trading back from 9.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
