Cy Young Porzio Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 with the 4th pick espn said the bears had planned to replace a-train with mcgahee and then were gonna go and get dave ragone in the 2nd round, but now with no mcgahee they dont know what to do with their 1st pick, and dont think larry johnson is worth the 4th pick. So it looks the bears may have another screwed draft yet again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wsc425 Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 Bears should draft a WR, or defensive player, let the A-Peterson play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 I heard that...I still think they may make a move for an offensive playmaker and then draft Ragone in the 2nd. Oh ya, I would of been so happy if we got McGahee, but its also known that the Texans (3rd Pick) were planning on taking him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AssHatSoxFan Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 WHY the Bears would go and waste 4th Overall pick with ANOTHER RB confuses me. We keep drafting them and they keep going wrong so we might as well settle with both A-Trains we have( Thomas and Peterson). I think if Ragone could drop to the 2nd round he would be a great pick up for the future since he has shown he can play at Louisville. I think a DB would good be a good choice with the fourth pick since Detriot and Texans will go with RBs or WRs and the Bengals will draft a nobody or possibly Palmer.

Mr. Showtime Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 WHY the Bears would go and waste 4th Overall pick with ANOTHER RB confuses me. Well, McGahee was a complete stud before his injury. Why would you pass him up? Now that he's hurt, you'll have your choice of Palmer or Byron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Texans are going to try to trade down, so if the Bears intentionally leaked this it would make some sense. Make teams think you were looking a rb and are going to take a qb later, maybe it stops them from dealing up ahead of you with the Texans to take Leftwich. Right now I could really see the Bears take Suggs are whatever the guy out of ASU's name is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I think we end up dealing down in the first round, for someone who wants to make us an offer we can't refuse for Leftwich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I think we end up dealing down in the first round, for someone who wants to make us an offer we can't refuse for Leftwich. that was the impression i got reading an article about the bears this morning. i believe it was in either chicago newspaper. jerry was hinting that the biggest need was at qb esp with miller having surgery.

Mr. Showtime Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 jerry was hinting that the biggest need was at qb esp with miller having surgery. QB, is the biggest need. However, whoever the Bears do get won't play. Jauron has to win or he'll be canned, so he's gonna play ol' busta ass Miller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jauron has to win or he'll be canned, so he's gonna play ol' busta ass Miller. i have always said that miller was a very good qb and the bears didn't need to address that position. i am now saying that i was totally off base on that assessment. i was wrong. miller gets hurt way too much and we need to address that position. what jerry a is going to do in the draft is beyond me, but if we can get a great future qb i am for it, however that position is like shooting craps. its all a gamble. this yr draft, for me is going to be a total unknow factor.

Mathew Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I'm not a Bears fan but Jim Miller Sucks balls either way hurt or not. Even when they are or were winning, they weren't a dynamic pass offence or even any kind of offence. Never in his long and crappy career has jim Miller done anything more than hand the ball off 35 tims a game and pass to TEs RBs and short recievers, that is not good enough unless those 35 handoffs are really good.

Cy Young Porzio Posted January 10, 2003 Author Share Posted January 10, 2003 I think if the bears can get charlie rogers then go and get him, but if not save your 2nd round pick and take a 1st round qb like leftwich. Then go defense in the 2nd round. Where is larry johnson projected to go in the draft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleM23 Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Picking McGahee at #4 would be incredibly stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggio202 Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 this is typical of bears draft practices throughout the years...trade down a high pick or wait to the 2nd round to get a substandard QB instead of taking the very best available...we havent had a real QB since sid luckman...you would think if a talent like leftwich is on the board it would be a no brainer for a franchise that has been QB - LESS for almost 60 years now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cy Young Porzio Posted January 13, 2003 Author Share Posted January 13, 2003 i just got the new issue of espn, and atleast i think i read this in there, but they said the bengals wont invest in another high round qb after busting on klinger and akili. Then the texans and lions are set with young guys and they wont so they predict palmer will fall to the bears who should get him and i agree, then try and get a good defender 2nd round maybe luckily doss would fall or we could take a chance on larry johnson if they want to.

Chisoxfn Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 He's at least played in the cold with sucess, cause it gets pretty cold at the Univeristy of Marshall. Right now I'm thinking sign Kordell, draft Ragone, Manning, Grossman, Boller in the 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
