Hate Da Bears

Post by CASTEELER » Wed Sep 24, 2014 10:28 pm

for drafting Kyle Fuller.
Heard we where going to draft him but the Bears grabbed him before us. Dam he is a playmaker, best corner in the draft and we missed him by one pick. Would of helped us much more than shazier can this year. It is what it is but it would of been sweet having Fuller.

I've said it since the combine that Fuller would be a much better pro than Gilbert. It's early, but I'm starting to reach my hand out and pat myself on the back.

I'm not sure he was worth trading up for but he would have been a nice pick had he fallen.

Timmons got a ring before Revis.

And Shazier will have one before Fuller.

So in the end it doesn't really matter.

Dennard isn't doing too bad either. Both guys were on my radar prior to the draft.

Fuller was my guy too.

I prayed (and I'm not religious) that we'd land him.

Fucking Bears.

What the hell is up with Matt Forte this year? Couldn't resist KC! Maybe Forte realizes that his time is done and he is passing the torch to the new, best all-purpose RB in Bell?

They look to be blocking for Forte this year in a similar fashion the Steeler o-line was blocking for Bell most of last year.

In other words, he simply doesn't have a chance.

Decent pass blocking team, the Bears.

Horrific run blocking team.

They can throw it right now, but the Bears are one dimensional and that is gonna come back to bit them on the ass.

Hard.

We talked Fuller up pretty good in the draft forum and on the podcast. One problem, the Steelers had Shazier as a top 10 player on their board and no CB in round 1 except Justin Gilbert. If Fuller was there, the Steelers would have passed on him for Shazier.

Payback for the Bradshaw pick in 1970.

Well that just tells me the missed on their evaluations of some of the CB.

The city is in love with him.

Imagine having a rookie step in and make you forget you lost a veteran like Peanut Tillman...or Peanut's college teammate Ike Taylor.

Fuller may be better than both of them. The plays he has made have shown incredible savvy and skill for a rookie.

That C2 is gonna be a bitch.

We have been lucky to have guys like Rod Woodson and Ike Taylor over the years. Moving forward I don't know if we have that caliber CB on this roster. I hope we go CB in next years draft.
