and he's built like a running back.

ESPN's Todd McShay says Tennessee WR Velus Jones Jr. is Bears' best draft pick

Qb and rb not addressed in fa, could one of these be our pick at 9?

WR, Edge, OG, LB...

WR, OG, & Edge are bigger needs than QB or RB.

We have too many hole to be filled through FA but there are still options in FA at OG, RB, & Edge.

This team probably got .3 better in FA. At this point, all Mickey is telling me is that they truly do think the '24 season was a fluke and are heavily banking on a new coaching staff to get more out of what they mostly have already. Even with Reid as an upgrade over Harris, you're mostly running this back with underperforming players on a defense that was mostly healthy last year.

It's quite obvious some of y'all only look at stat sheets and headlines.

He had ZERO fumbles in college across 62 games and 6 seasons, though he only played 5 seasons and redshirtted his freshman season at USC.

His fumbles came bunched together at PR in 2022 when he had 3. It was like a cade of the yips.

No fumbles in 2023.

1 in 2024.

He's a weapon, who can play KR, RB and WR with unteachable speed.

Here's Baldy breaking him down as a RB

Low risk high reward signing

Low risk high reward signing

Exactly. We have seen that KR is part of the game again. It makes sense to go get a guy who can take it to the house at anytime on KR. He's also a bigger/sturdy guy so that helps with durability. IIRC, he doesn't didn't have an evolved route tree, but this dude can play a the Z and take a top off a defense.

Baldinger’s video is very interesting. Highlights can be deceiving, but they can also be intriguing.
