Tory taylor net yards per punt ,44.3; Bears average last year, 38.4. If team averages 7 pints per game, Taylor provides approximately a benefit of 40 yards per game, or 1000 yards per season. It's as good as drafting a thousand yard rusher or receiver. For a fourth round?

Silly argument. Nobody will disagree that Trenton Gil sucks and has to be replaced but you didn't need to spend a top 125 pick to do it. Example: Eagles signed Braden Mann to a 1 year-1.3 million deal this offseason. He averaged 49.8 per punt. Taylor averaged 48.2 yards. Mann's net was 43.9. Taylor was at 44.3. If we traded pick 122 for Braden Mann, would you have been happy with that? Bears get an A++ this draft cycle, but I'm counting the punter pick as a mulligan. No punter is worth a top 125 pick.

I looked back at the 1st and 2nd Team All Pro Punters over the past 8 years and only 3 of them had been drafted. It's an unsigned free agent position for a reason. Too cute of a pick for me.

Weirderer was one of the biggest promoters of get JF outta here and bring Caleb.. I cant wait to see him shred Caleb every time he struggles (which he will in his 1st year especially since he will now be facing NFL defenses not weak pac 12 opponents)

Caleb got the SMOAKE. Swift, Moore, Odunze, Allen, Kmet, and Everett! Spread the word!

Yea Velus is gonna be one of our biggest weapons in the return game.

One thing we have to remember is that Peyton Manning broke the rookie record for interceptions in a single season. This isn't going to happen overnight so, as a fan base, we have to remember that and be patient and supportive

The thing is Tyson Bagent could lead this team to a record over .500 no excuses for Caleb if he wasn’t ready to be better than Bagent he won’t be the starter simple as that. Everyone should expect Caleb is the starter day one and we should win 10 games or more.

good punter helps, defense n QB

Caleb Williams freshman Oklahoma highlights are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 it was clear even as a freshman he was likely the best QB in college.

To me the biggest challenge and issue is, is the coaching staff up to the task of developing this QB. We have a horrible history of screwing up QB’s. At this point I have little confidence in this staff. If the Bears don’t win at least 9 or 10 games this coming season, then we will be looking at yet again another new HC and staff. A new system and new people. The same problem Fields faced. The Bears have a history of going on the cheap for HC and staff and it shows with our results. I have growing confidence in Poles but not Eberflus. Frankly, he’s lucky to still have the job.

Dan's complaint about a center irks me to no end. Does the 2 capable veterans that Poles added to play the position mean nothing? The centers that were drafted high didn't play center and the centers that were rated high were drafted to play guard. Poles forgot more than Bernstein ever knew about football.

All things being equal (college vs pros) Caleb isn’t going to be facing the same offensive line difficulties that he did last year.

Ray Guy was, I think, a high drafted punter, and he was a valuable weapon for Al's Raiders.

Sadly, the Bears only have 4 games in which they had a 400-yard passer. Two of them happened in the 40's, one other happened in 1962, and the last one was in 1999 by Jim Miller!

You analysts act as if our Bears coaches and execs have not been around superstars before. They are pros and have been coaching pros for decades. When practices start, it is all about ball and doing what they do - coach. Caleb is deadly focused on his goals and Odunze appears to be the same way. These two are no ordinary rookies who are going to be overwhelmed by you media types. (And anyone who saw Tory Taylor at Iowa knows he is a special punter who will make a major impact on our field position in every game.)

I think Debbie Downer is the WHOLE part of her.

You people are on crack, he hasn't even put on a Bears uniform yet. As a Bears fan you people are making me sic.

After the 3rd round, if you have a chance to draft a “generational talent”, on any spot on your team? You do it. It’s not hard.

Yet when it comes to those same talking points they don’t blame coaching or the QB or give excuses to the rest of the offensive players. Never consistent with y’all people. It’s not hard to see the old QB ( who I’m not naming because it’s history now ) was really the problem for the offense being god awful and why the OL and coaching looked awful. Shane Waldron and Caleb alone will absolutely make the OL look a million times better than y’all want to admit and I’m so glad Poles and Waldron saw that and didn’t listen to the casual fans.

Fields is so tough he survived the dysfunctional coaching and play calling. Getting injured saved him - he continued getting better. He matched the first rookie seasons of Jalen Hurts and Josh Allen in statistics. I think Poles was forced to take Caleb because the great plan of trading Fields to raise the value of PICK1 failed when a late phone call came in on the clock. GMs refused to pay big bucks for Caleb. Fields went cheap and needs a year to rest and heal. He can be hired back cheaply after Caleb looks like a bust. 🐻⬇️🧆🏝️

Dan - you are wearing the rose colored glasses.....Caleb is not the wonder you keep saying he is - in fact, people that have studied everyone of his games and the all 22 reviews express big time concerns - poor footwork leading to balls that sail (poor deep ball accuracy); failure to throw receivers open or anticipate; progression skills stunted by simple college O; holding on to the ball forever while missing open receivers and difficulty playing on time. Great arm talent; lightening fast release - but not necessarily NFL level game.

Something that never would ever happen with Fields. Any team loses their qb and they are fucked regardless of the hb. If Jacob’s gets get hurt, GB is beyond fucked. Henry is old, Cmac is a weapon not a guy who is going to rush for 1500yds a season. There wasn’t a de to draft in the top 10 that’s why nobody took a defensive player until 15 and that player has neck injuries. There is no reason to expect Sweat to get hurt can’t fix everything in one offseason. Johnson is in his second yr we still don’t know what his full potential is and Herbert is a weapon when healthy. This isn’t the 1980’s teams don’t run the ball even 50% of the time much. I’ll take Swifts product last year over Jacob’s and his 3.5yrds per carry he isn’t Jones this was a downgrade. I’ll take out receiver group over just about anyone else’s in the league. If the Bears can get a lead the defense should be able to keep it. Our new DC is a lot more aggrieved with the linemen.
