Bears should surprise everyone and take Bo Nix.
They always do this... not sure why. Maybe to give the broadcast more time.Bears war room all sitting their staring into space.......so exicting
Why get enraged by only one thing when I can have two?I see you're juggling both just like I am hahaWhy can’t the bears just make the pick!
Because they know I work in the morningI’ve never understood why they don’t just have the first pick, no clock, at go time.
In the rare circumstance there's a trade up last min I guess?I’ve never understood why they don’t just have the first pick, no clock, at go time.
no. There's been plenty of war room videos, etc. that they show afterwards.You wonder if the teams do the draft for real earlier in the day, then present it this way
Hmmm
I think that must be it. In the early 80s, teams got a half hour apiece to make their picks. The whole 1st round was done in 3 hours. No one was taking their full time or anywhere close. This is when ESPN was desperate for content and the draft was on Tuesday morning.They always do this... not sure why. Maybe to give the broadcast more time.Bears war room all sitting their staring into space.......so exicting
Pretty sure the NFL tells teams not to pick right at the start.
YepI believe the nfl has told them to sit on pick to allow networks to do some color
The Lions would do this and the NFL would threaten to fine them. The NFL wants to drag this out.I’ve never understood why they don’t just have the first pick, no clock, at go time.
They better find a way to protect him. But he’s got the skills to be great.Jayden Daniels goes to the Commanders at #2
Post-Draft Analysis
Williams' skill set would allow him to be a great fit in any offense, but the Bears' setup in particular stands out with offensive coordinator Shane Waldron's love for the deep ball. Waldron will scheme up deep shots to DJ Moore, and Keenan Allen, Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett are all physical enough to beat up man coverage on underneath routes for Williams. And if all else fails, Williams will be free to use his legs in the Chicago system; he scored 27 rushing touchdowns over the past three seasons. In short, the fit is superb. -- Miller
Overall value: Perfect range. In fact, it won't get any more perfect than this. Williams is the highest-graded player regardless of position on my board, and he also checked in at No. 1 overall for Mel Kiper Jr., Field Yates and Miller. And while Williams didn't grade out quite as high as Andrew Luck did in 2012, he joins Trevor Lawrence as the two best quarterback prospects I've studied since then. -- Muench
It’s actually one of those things that seems impossible and yet also makes complete sense when you think about the bears…That the Bears haven’t had a 4K passer is pretty amazing in todays game
You know the NFL makes them do that - it has to be that. Airtime matters.Use that clock Bears !
Probably be betterBears should surprise everyone and take Bo Nix.
not to 4. but yes to 5.Does Minnesota trade up now?
Hopefully the Vikes sit tight and don't overpay for McCarthy.Darn
Either that or it’s Darnold time in MIN.Does Minnesota trade up now?
Post-Draft Analysis
The Commanders had 21 interceptions last season and traded Sam Howell to Seattle in March, leaving a big hole at QB. Daniels has the mobility, accuracy and decision-making to thrive in offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury's scheme. His ability outside of structure will place less stress on a Washington offensive line that allowed 65 sacks last season, tied for the second-most in the NFL. And he'll fit well with wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson after being arguably the most accurate deep-ball passer in the FBS last season. -- Jordan Reid
Overall value: Perfect range. Daniels is ranked fifth overall on my board, he has a strong first-round grade, and he is the best available quarterback with Caleb Williams gone at No. 1. -- Muench
Post-Draft Analysis
With Mac Jones traded, the Patriots had to find a quarterback to build around. We don't know exactly what Alex Van Pelt's offense will look like in New England, but the best-case scenario is that Maye sits behind veteran Jacoby Brissett for at least part of the 2024 season and keeps developing. Maye's arm strength, pocket toughness, mobility and poise are all excellent traits that can fit into any NFL offense, and with deep threats like Kendrick Bourne and K.J. Osborn on the roster, his arm talent will shine in Foxboro Stadium. -- Miller
Overall value: Perfect range. Taking the third-best quarterback with the third-overall pick isn't always the best move -- just ask the 49ers -- but Maye is ranked just behind Daniels at sixth overall on my board, making him a strong pick here for a team that needs a QB. -- Muench
