I live near Chicago and rumor was the Bears we’re going to take this guy with their last pick if they couldn’t trade down. I wanted the Hawks to take him but understand it’s unusual to take a punter this early, but this kid is one of the best punters I’ve ever seen.
Wasn’t rated all that high, so hope they get it right. Definite need position, but Trotter played a lot better teams and seems like we’re trying to outsmart people. Probably could have got him at 136. We’ll never know
I liked everything they said about him until they said he struggled against power rushers when they played better teams like Tennessee. Definite need, but Zinter may have been a better choice. Hopefully coaching and the weight room can resolve it.
The Eagles were talking about trading up for a CB. With all offensive players in the first 13 picks, they reported that they weren’t interested in trading up and got the consensus #1 CB at #22. All the QBs going early pushed a lot of great defensive players down. GB was another team reported to...
Not me. I said the same thing but I saw an article a couple of days ago that said the Giants wouldn’t block him if he wanted to leave and hoped we might be able to get him. Too bad that wasn’t true.
You won’t get the Giants or Panthers to allow either guy to be interviewed for a lateral move. It’s McD, Kafka, or Evero as HC and then they bring in their coordinators that aren’t already one for another pro team
There are rumors that Tomlin may want out of Pitt. I doubt that will happen and I don’t think I’d ever want to to trade for a coach, but I’d put him at the top of the list. I don’t like Harbaugh, but Pete came here after winning the championship with scandals. Harbaugh could follow the same...
DT Newton from Illinois to pair with Spoon from Illinois might be a good pairing. Michigan ILB Junior Colston looks like a fit for us if he makes it to the third round.
Unfortunately, we gave up our second rounder for Williams and that hasn’t worked out. Rumor is it might only take a second rounder to get him. I live by Madison, so I see the Bears play quite a bit. His accuracy is inconsistent. He has one more year on his rookie contract but I don’t think I’d...
The 2024 draft is supposedly the deepest DT draft in years. It’s a deep QB class too. If we can’t sign Williams, we’ll regret this trade. Our second round pick could have turned out to be a promising DT or QB on a rookie contract.
