*** Official 2017 NFL Draft Thread *** Bears pay a steep price for their franchise QB (1 Viewer)

[Tool]

wouldn't give that much up otherwise.

That makes no sense.  They would have no way of knowing what other teams were offering or who the other teams were planning on picking.

 

[ShamrockPride]

That's a fanfreakingtastic young d-line. Buckner, Thomas, Armstead.

 

[-OZ-]

So who does CLE target at QB?  Watson?

Kessler

Trubisky won't start 

Not year 1 most likely but MG probably thought he had a chance to have the job long term.

The teams talk to each other just like we do in fantasy.  "We have an offer of X, if you want better will have to beat it.".

NFLN guys were even talking about what teams discuss at moments like this. 49ers also would have asked who Bears would take.

He still might

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

 Did Mel just say the Bears only have Hoyer and Barkley at QB?

 

[Mister CIA]

How many bad teams are going to draft bad QBs in the early first round? Like moths to a flame.

 

[Moonlight]

hahaha.  they are so stupid.  happy to have them in the NFC north.  

Huge risk and payment for a guy who's only started 13 games. Bears have sunk below the Lions.

 

[Mister CIA]

TJ Yeldon, wait!

 

[Despyzer]

Jamal Adams is in a freefall!!!

 

[zeeshan2]

Damn Fournette to jags 

 

[Evilgrin 72]

There goes Fournette's fantasy value. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

 

[hagmania]

Titans snagging Adams might be as good as getting a 2nd.

 

[ShamrockPride]

There goes Fournette's fantasy value. 

Seriously. Yeldon still gets catches. Ivory will still get used.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Jamal Adams is in a freefall!!!

Loving it as a Bills fan. Adams, Howard or Foster would all make me happy.

 

[bueno]

Adams is a good choice here, but I'm thinking Lattimore

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Hope Jags improve that line....

 

[Kleck]

Seriously. Yeldon still gets catches. Ivory will still get used.

Ivory gets cut/takes a back seat.  Yeldon gets some decent receptions.  Leo leads the way.

 

[-OZ-]

Adams is a good choice here, but I'm thinking Lattimore

That's my thought but I kind of want Howard. 

 

[BassNBrew]

Happy the Panthers can't take him.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Seriously. Yeldon still gets catches. Ivory will still get used.

Plus, the Jags' line stinks, he'll be facing 8 man fronts constantly and Bortles will limit his TD opportunities. Wouldn't touch him before about round 5 in redraft leagues. 

 

[bueno]

Happy the Panthers can't take him.

They might still get Cook

 

[Mister CIA]

@Hipple, Long, Ware, & Peete returning as Glennon, Trubisky, Sanchez, & Shaw seems right.

 

[GregR]

Happy the Panthers can't take him.

They might still get Cook

Now you're just being mean.

 

[fruity pebbles]

They drafted Fournette 4th overall. Ivory and Yeldon are gonna get used as much as Tre Mason. 

 

[Despyzer]

LOL... Davis

 

[King of the Jungle]

Mayock is such a tool.

 

[Ilov80s]

Great pick wow

 

[JaxBill]

There goes Fournette's fantasy value. 

There goes the Jags chance at improvement 

 

[hagmania]

Folks must be fine letting Adams fall. Have to think they were trying to trade back.

 

[Ilov80s]

LOL... Davis

Seriously??

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Ugh. Titans should have taken Adams. 

 

[Tool]

They drafted Fournette 4th overall. Ivory and Yeldon are gonna get used as much as Tre Mason. 

Yep.

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Please no.

 

[Mister CIA]

What the hay!

 

[-OZ-]

I'm good with it but would have preferred trading down. 

 

[Ilov80s]

Could not be a better fit than Davis and the Titans.

 

[hagmania]

Hope he's fn dynamite.

#TrustRobinson

 

[Chicago Hooligan]

Hey, I finally got another pick right!

 

[Rove!]

LOL... Davis

Ouch

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Mayock is such a tool.

Is he tipping picks again?  Not even watching because he did that last year

 

[Despyzer]

Seriously??

Yes, seriously... could have been had ten picks later. Few even thought of him as the top WR. Tall guy who looked good against weak competition. Sounds like Vincent Jackson. If that's who you wanted with a top 5 pick, cool!

Wow. Cleveland is trying to trade for Kirk Cousins. This is real.

 

[Mister CIA]

Oh goody, the Jets are on the clock!

 

[Courtjester]

And here come the Jets taking a tight end

You talked to those other teams? I saw plenty of draftniks that had Davis top 10. He's nothing like Jackson. As a true freshman in his first ever college game, he torched MSU.

I'm guessing they tried trading down but Davis wasn't making it to 18.

 

[JaxBill]

Jags run a ton of 3 WR sets for good reason and Fournette matches up with none of that.

Just a terrible pick.

 

[hagmania]

Anyone who gets Adams now has to think they have a real steal.
