Re: 2020 Chicago Bears

Linebacker Barkevious Mingo has played for five teams the past
five seasons, and he just agreed to terms with a different team
than the previous five.
Mingo will sign a one-year, $1.187 million deal with the Bears,
with $887,000 fully guaranteed, Aaron Wilson of the Houston
Chronicle reports.
The Texans had interest in keeping Mingo and made an offer,
Wilson adds, but Mingo opted to go to Chicago.
Mingo, 29, spent his first three seasons in Cleveland after the
Browns made him the sixth overall choice. He then went to New
England in 2016, Indianapolis in 2017, Seattle in 2018 and
Houston last season.
Mingo appeared in 16 games but made only one start in 2019. He
saw action on 73 defensive snaps and 318 on special teams.
In his seven seasons, Mingo has 220 tackles, 10 sacks, 14 pass
breakups, an interception and five forced fumbles.

Good depth signing...takes away one more “must have” from the
draft...

I dont necessarily buy this. Its a point of view for sure

If a player they want isnt there its meaningless. Why waste the
pick?

Pace would not go into a draft with glaring front line needs.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Pace signs a couple more
O-lineman similar to Ted Larsen, 2018s Witzman and Cornelius
Lucas.
Safety and corner now have quantity depth - still not sure about
quality depth. Either position could be targeted in round 2.
Also, Stephen Denmark is still on the roster. Last year's 7th
rounder has freak size/speed and was hidden on IR last season.
He might make the team as a special teamer.
Right now though I think O-line is biggest need in the draft.
Pace is a self proclaimed BPA guy. And with all the Bears needs
he could go just about anywhere in round 2. But I don't think
Pace can draft for a future he might not be part of.

Why not sign Dalton or Winston at this point? Cap room issues?
Give Mitch some real competition. Winston is a block head, but
he will stand in there and throw the ball down the field.

Which brings me back to this post I made in the Draft topic not
too long ago...which no one bothered to give any thought to,
apparently...
Which of these guys would you take no matter what at 43? Pick
all of them that you would take...doesn't have to be just one.
Assume there are no good offers to trade down...
WR - Tee Higgins - Clemson
WR - Brandon Aiyuk - Arizona St
WR - Justin Jefferson - LSU
RB - JK Dobbins - OSU
RB - Jonathan Taylor - Wisconsin
RB - D'Andre Swift - Georgia
QB - Jordan Love - Utah St
CB - Jeff Gladney - TCU
OT - Josh Jones - Houston

That and TE. Graham hasnt changed anything. He is just a smoke
screen.

I don't know that much about any of the guys on your list. Just
going by position.
I'd go with the OT. Next the corner (even if one of the 3 guys
vying for the job sticks - Fuller ain't getting any younger).
WR is tempting but he'd have to be special. We've seen Nagy
largely ignore Wims and Ridley early in their careers. Nagy
just doesn't sub in these guys frequently or maybe he does and
Trubisky never finds them since they are not the primaries.
I think we're OK at HB, would have liked for the Bears to retain
Kerrith Whyte though.

you draft the sure thing, if one is available. If the rankings
are close you go for need, OL, TE.
I just hope a good OT or OG is available. Last high pick OL was
Daniels, who I think has been a big disappointment.
Can't make reaches with picks in the first 2 rounds, if you rate
a guy like Taylor as a future all-pro you take him.
