Anybody who has followed the NFL draft for long enough understands it's not a perfect process. Those who know it well realize that simply being talented or having good film aren't enough to warrant being taken in high rounds. It's also about making a good impression. Mitch Trubisky is a perfect...
The Chicago Bears love to say they go into every draft seeking the best players available. It's a nice philosophy to live by, but it's also kind of not true. Look back at every top draft pick GM Ryan Pace has made since 2015. The majority of them were filling a top need for his team. Kevin White...
The Chicago Bears surprised a number of people back in 2003 when they selected a tall, skinny kid from Louisiana-Lafayette University named Charles Tillman. As a football program, it was small potatoes. Since joining the FBA level in 1978, it had never participated in a bowl game. His final year in...
Signing Robert Quinn to replace Leonard Floyd was a clear message from the Chicago Bears. They were not satisfied with the state of their pass rush last season. Given how little Floyd was able to accomplish (three sacks in 16 games) that's not difficult to understand. So this probably means the...
While Arturas Karnisovas has made it clear his top priority is finding a new GM for the Chicago Bulls, plenty of fans are shouting from the rooftops for the new VP of Basketball Operations to get rid of Jim Boylen. Many view him as one of the primary reasons what was supposed to be a young and...
For all the people begging the Chicago Bulls to just fire Jim Boylen already, they're going to have to wait. New VP of Basketball Operations Arturas Karnisovas has more important matters to attend to. With no NBA season in progress, there's no point in worrying about that. His greater...
Arturas Karnisovas made it clear from the start that he wanted the Chicago Bulls VP of Basketball Operations job. He wanted it bad. The former Lithuanian star grew up idolizing Michael Jordan and even had a chance to play against the GOAT during the 1992 Summer Olympics. So this was a dream many...
Mel Kiper Jr. has covered the NFL draft for ESPN dating back to 1984. It's been in his life and passion. Safe to say in that time he's come to understands what teams are likely to do based on that experience. With the 2020 draft approaching, he's putting the finishing touches on his own board and...
One of the fundamental truths of football is good players can come from anywhere. Doesn't matter if it's the college factories of Alabama and LSU or smaller programs of Division III. Time and again it's been proven that talented athletes find success in the NFL (betamo.com) regardless of their...
Believe it or not, there was still an outside chance that Gar Forman could've at least saved himself a spot inside the Chicago Bulls organization. As horrible of a GM as he turned out to be, the Reinsdorfs seemed to think he had value in the scouting department. Something reflected in his solid...
If one position group has begun to stand out lately as a heavy focus for the Chicago Bears in the upcoming draft? That's cornerbacks. Just last week they added Mississippi State's Cameron Dantzler to their growing list of meetings. Now Justin Melo of The Draft Wire revealed two more have joined...
When the Chicago Bears selected Mitch Trubisky 2nd overall in 2017, GM Ryan Pace felt exuberant. He'd gotten his guy. The quarterback he felt could lead his franchise back to the top of the NFL mountain. Plenty of draft experts didn't mind the pick. For them Trubisky was the best quarterback...
