I was just talking about Clady and the Jets cornerback.

We're still at 50%. Wilson's a first round nickel corner who struggles in coverage. I know everyone was excited about him in November, but he got torched pretty severely later on.

There should be some good offensive linemen and wide receivers available at 50. I'm not sure about defensive tackles. I'm a Devon Still fan at 50, where there is less risk, but I'm guessing everyone else with a 2nd round grade will be gone by then. Mike Martin would be a good pick in the 3rd.

I'm scared of who we'll take. I really hope we go BPA.

[Monomach]

Alameda Ta’amu.

[MidwayMonster31]

Wide receiver and corner seem like likely options tonight.

[SFbear]

I'd be excited about the McClellin pick if we were a 3-4 team. Just do not see the fit for us. I think he's going to get swallowed up at LE.

[bearsfan_51]

I like the Jeffrey pick. I'm not sure we needed to trade up for him, but it's a 5th round pick, and I don't care about those.

[Monomach]

I love Jeffery if we can keep him slim. Fat Jeffery would bust hard. Slim Jeffery could be a hell of a compliment to Marshall.

[bearsfan_51]

I wonder what they thought about Reuban Randle and why they felt there was a threat that Jeffrey would be drafted in the next five picks.

Again, I don't care about 5th round picks, but you'd think Emery would.

Don't care about fifth round picks, either, but I'd have just stayed at 50 if I had flat-out decided that I absolutely must get a second round receiver.

-Jeffery
-Randle
-Sanu

One of the big-bodied jump ballers would have been there. I'd have chosen Sanu, for what it's worth.

Jay Cutler is going to look stupid good if he can just start Matt Staffording balls in the general direction of a giant ball-fighter. So glad we're not going to be seeing any more Hester/Knox nonsense on the outside. Now all of our slot receivers can just play in the slot.

I love the pick. I had Randle ahead of Jeffery but I love me some Jeffery.

I didnt have Sanu in there class. I had Randle and Jeffery as late 1st / early 2nds. Sanu as a 3rd.

[HeavyLeggedWaistBender]

This one is perfect for us.

****. Packers got Jurrell Worthy. He's good. :(

I'm cool with them having picks. I just wish they had a Jerry Angelo using them. Instead, they keep drafting guys I want on the Bears.

It's only fair, we did it to them in round 1...

[bearsfan_51]

Worthy has a motor problem. I don't think we would have picked him.

[bearfan]

What the ****

[Monomach]

Brandon Hardin is a decent pick. I think he'll send Major Wright on his merry way sooner or later.

But oh my god does our O line suck hard.

[Monomach]

Anyway, day two beat the crap out of day one, I think.

But we're not going to win it all with our O line. Amazing how we can ignore it when it was by far the primary weakness of the team. Better sign Montrae Holland and Jake Scott or something.

[bearsfan_51]

Carimi coming back is sort of like getting someone, since he didn't do poo last year.

[HeavyLeggedWaistBender]

3rd Safety in the 3rd round in 3 straight ******* years. STer only. ******* stupid.

Bobby Massie at 79 would've been succulent. This is just sucky.

I agree Massie would have been the obvious pick, and the one that would help the team the most, but I don't think Hardin is ST only. I think he can develop into a really good safety.

Since Major Wright can't cover, that would be pretty helpful.

[HeavyLeggedWaistBender]

Okie dokie, maybe. But, **** me, he didn't play last year cuz he broke his shoulder. Didn't Emery just say we won't take guys with injury histories?

What a weird smokescreen.
