Bears stole a WR (1 Viewer)

[flapgreen]

I don't know too many WRs drafted sixth round or later who really do much in their rookie year outside of Colston--and he was at a small school and was just overlooked as a result and he also had a great QB throwing him the ball.

Monk may turn out to be good but I don't see the value in drafting him now; in most leagues he won't be drafted. I would pick him up late in the season if he starts to get some playing time and hope he may do something the next year.

The guy who is most likely to produce is Earl Bennett. I don't see how he doesn't work his way into the starting lineup right away.

Monk won't be able to do much with the QBs he's got. Look for him to start to really emerge in year two. (Doesn't change my opinion that he should probably start instead of Booker. I don't believe the Bears have a shot at the playoffs for the next two years)

Try the next 5 at least... Urlacher has a herniated disc in his back, he'll be good for 3 more years tops. It takes time to build a good QB- unless all the Bears executives are praying McNabb gets released after this year, and even so, there are holes among holes in that team

To say the Bears are 3 years away from playoffs is just... well...

The Bears are about as close as the Lions are to the playoffs...

Typical overly optimistic Bears fans...

What's with the "..."? Is that for dramatic effect? I love the extra emoticons, really spices up the post.News flash, this is the NFL. News flash, they are in the NFC. 8-8 can win your division. 8-8 is a wildcard team.

This is the NFL, no one in the league is 5 years away. No team is without question 3 years away. Things can change very quickly. Good rookie class, some good FAs, a new coach, new system, things can turn around VERY quickly. The Bears have a number of peices, I believe a very good coach. They just need to re-load and find a QB. Rex got them to the SuperBowl, Rex can get them to the playoffs. It's hardly that crazy of a thought.

In the AFC, I might say 3 years. NFC? Anyone can go from worst to playoffs in the NFC.

Didn't see this before posting. Spot on

I'm as down on the Bears and as disgusted as anyone but saying they're at least 5 years away from the playoffs shows how clueless you really are. I'd like to find many if any that agree with you. In today's NFL, that can't be said about any team. Get out of here with your bs.

Couldn't have said it any better myself, so I didn't.
