Lots of good discussion on Oline.
Personally I think we are improving and 1 or 2 pieces and we
could really be set for quite awhile.
Webb struggled but don't forget he is young and gaining
experience. I do think either drafting an LT high or bring in
QUALITY LT would be wise...I kind of lean toward drafting.
Really think we need to draft an OG with one of either our 2nd
or 3rd round (2) picks.
I think Louis (ROG) and Carimi (ROT) are the right side of the
line next year. I think Garza stays at C. I think that Spencer
becomes backup C/OG. Chris Williams battles it out with rookie
OG on left side for starter/backup spots. Rookie or FA LT; with
Webb as backup swing tackle.
I personal think it will be 1st round Rookie LT: Williams:
Garza: Louis: Carimi
With Rookie OG, Spencer and Webb as backups. That would be a
nice Oline I believe.
The 2nd round pick would be CB, the other 3rd would be LB, 4th
S.
Under this scenario FA #1 WR's is a must. I personally would
like to see that person be Dwayne Bowe or Marques Colston.

And here we go, the sum of all fears. What a bunch of
sockcuckers. George looks like a parody of a mad englishman.
End of days boys, end of days.

Hard to believe that the Bears O-line may go from their biggest
weakness to biggest strength in one year. But getting rid of
Angelo gives me hope.
Draft or sign a top notch FA LT and the Bears are set on the
O-line.
Draft or preferably sign a proven stud #1 WR in FA and the O is
good to go.
Use the rest of the draft and FA to fill in holes and provide
depth.

If Ruskell winds up the GM you can kiss your hopes goodbye as
far as improving the Bears' OL or WR talent.
Those two spots were perennial points of embarrassment and
failure in Seattle while he was running the show out there.
He let the 2nd best O-Lineman in team history (Steve Hutchinson)
walk in the prime of his career, and never came close to
replacing him. He ridiculously overpaid the Patriots for Deion
Branch, who promptly busted. He left them saddled with Matt
Hasselbeck at QB for years, and never even attempted to replace
Shaun Alexander even though was plenty of advance warning that
Alexander's best days were done.
All he does is draft undersized defensive players, especially
DL. And even those guys don't pan out. Sound like anyone we
know?
In short, Tim Ruskell is an imbecile and especially when it
comes to drafting offense. I may very well forego watching the
draft this year if Ruskell is making the picks.

I will be pissed if Ruskell is named GM.
He is worse then the guy they just fired. Seriously if this is
the plan they should of just kept Angelo and fired the whole
bunch next year. It would of saved them money also.

Pretty much anyone who knows the workings of Halas Hall could
have predicted how this would all go down.
Tice would be the OC, and Ruskell the GM. The path of least
resistance (and expense) all around.

Kind of looking that way, isn't it?

When they hired Tice as OC then we all know who the GM was next
in waiting. Too obvious.

Or quite possibly there isn't anybody even interested in
interviewing for the damn job...except Ruskell.
