To be fair, I'd expect that to be something that they would have discussed even if Young were just a possibility.

I know guys will see this as confirmation of Young being the pick, and he very well could be, but this doesn't really say anything definitive.

I concur that it's not 100% definitive but from my perspective and for the reasons I listed, it sure seems very likely.

I mean your protein intake is a pretty important part of muscle building 

I'm not even going to pretend like I know what I'm talking about in this topic.  Just assumed steak builds muscle quicker than scallops.  It was mostly satire anyway.

Watched the presser.

So they did NOT contact Young, and questions about him canceling visits need to be directed to him.  So if Texas informed Young he was going to be their pick yesterday, then they went into a press conference and said they were listening to offers for pick 2 on the same day.  Bizzare.

They dismissed the standard height/size complaints about batted balls and durability.

They said that it was at the combine that it became pretty clear.  Which is interesting because Young didn't do anything at the combine and I don't see how any measurables would erase tape.  If it is indeed Young, then the interviews were very important, which by the way, is exactly what they said...that the interviews were important.

They said they'll make the decision later this week.  Maybe they told Texas the same thing and that is why Texas said they would decide if they are trading out of 2 on Thursday.

If Texas trades out of two, we know who it is.

He actually said in on every deal but continue being wrong...

he did, and proceeded to get in on the deal to get us to #1 overall to take the one QB he's been convicted on this entire time

You are correct he does say in on every deal.

 

But he’s also said that the phone is always open for any player .  
He said this last fall when the whole Burns trade rumors came up.

 who should we believe

Scott Fitterer...but you also have to be very careful to understand what he's saying and what he isn't.

Like a typical GM, nearly all of what he says is couched in 'flexible" language, i.e. "we don't foresee this', "we think we'll do that", etc.

Keeping options open is something a smart team does.

And yes, I do think we can know be considered a smart team.

I'd say DJ Moore wearing a Bears uniform is pretty solid proof of that.

Feels weird to type that after having Rhule as our HC doesn't it?

    • I see they blamed Slavin for the goal like I did. 
    • See this is the problem, you say "can't get off the line quick" and "can't separate quick" but in reality it's "he can get off the line better and create more separation" which are two completely different things. If he couldn't get off the line or separate, he wouldn't have put up the numbers he did and end up a Top 10 pick. But he can get better, and maybe more accurately, consistent with them both, and that will take his game to the next level.  These are things that are also much easier to improve once you get to the NFL than things like being a poor route runner or having bad hands, two of his strengths. Thinking he can't get open in the short passing game also shows you haven't watched enough tape on him, as he was used in that role so much in college with little issue getting open and making plays. And him not using his physicality as much isn't even something that hurts his game because he's so much more agile than a player of his size should be, which he used to his advantage.  Instead of throwing passes where he'd go up and box out a player like a TE or Mike Evans does, they use his athleticism and put the ball in places that only he can get to it, and he usually does (and yes, he'll still be able to do that against NFL DB's with his catch radius). But now that he's in the NFL, I'd like to see him get stronger and add that to his game because it also will help him take his game to another level. As I've said before, if he doesn't improve on those things at all, I think he's a Top 25 WR in this league, he's already that good.  But I think he'll improve on those things and be a perennial Top 10 WR and in his prime is considered and perform like Top 5 guy in some years. My expectations for him this year at 800 yards and 8 TDs (although I do think he'll get to 10 TDs) with a real chance at getting to 1,000.  But those expectations are because I think Thielen will lead the team in yards with close to 1k and XL/Coker each end up in the 500-600 range themselves, just too many mouths to feed this year for a rookie to dominate yardage, especially if we're running the ball well again. But if Thielen can't stay healthy or puts up sub 750 yards, then yea, my expectations for T-Mac likely shift to getting to 1k as a rookie.
