Did Nagy turn Zach Ertz into the player he is today? Not sure honestly, don't even know if Ertz was on the Eagle by the time Nagy went to KC. Which leads me to my next point... Travis Kelce baby. And for the sake of this argument, im going to assume Nagy turn both Ertz and Kelce into the best receiving TEs in football. You see where im getting at...Cole Kmet...with Jimmy Graham on the other end to take all the attention. This is going to look VERY similar to the 2012 Patriots, except the Bears are going to be murdering the flats, not the civilians! Still don't think it was that great of pick.

I wanted Delpit or Winfield badly. However, I think I am going to love Kmet. Nothing gets me fired up like a 4 yard button hook! Also, the video of him with his family was so awesome. Excited about Jaylon Johnson if he can stay healthy.

I was laughing out loud to myself when the Bears traded a... Fifth round pick for a fourth round pick? Do you think Rick Spielman was laughing to himself when he got that phone call? Obviously I know very little about the semantics of the draft, but the Bears were also picking 5 picks after that. Maybe wait and see if you can get him at 169 before jumping to 163 and offering next years higher round draft pick? But what do I know.

Horace Grant is the absolute man, and I couldn't help but grind my teeth every time that they showed Bill Laimbeer. Such a punk.

Lastly, can we get a running list of everyone who is SGCTC ceritified?

Also are we sure his name isn't Travis Gibson? Trevis Gipsen?

Trevis Gipsen would be the name in an unfunny meme about him filling in for Travis Gibson while he was suspend. Like with a mustache

Lets get this started. Being about your age when the Piston thing was going on, you can't even imagine the intensity of that rivalry and the hate for them even though they had Mark Aquirre(Chicago/DePaul Legend) and Thomas(who we played against in High School). They were pieces of shit and I am so happy Horace Grant got to call them what they were, "Straight Up Bitches".

I am glad to see Rodman get his due. There are very few people who earned the level of respect he earned from Jordan. Adding to the story, of Jordan going to his hotel room to get him.....do we think Jordan flew to Vegas to do that? If so, WTF?

You are too young to not go in for the nostalgia, it will come.

Lastly, Jerry Krause dancing on that plane better be all over Social Media today. That was worth the 10 Part Series just to see that clip. Thank god he passed away or he would be getting abused today.

It's worth mentioning that Graham and Kmet aren't exactly fighting for the same position. I think the point still stands, though.

EVERY GOOD TEAM HAS A GOOD TIGHT END! It wasn't a need. It was essential. The Bears got two first rounders in the second round. Good Draft!

I actually did not hate the Bears draft. Kind of liked it. I get why people are mad about the Kmet pick, but as I think you've said, if you have 10 tight ends you have zero. He was the best tight end in the draft, and we were able to get him at 43. Hopefully he can contribute a bit right away and be the tight end of the future. I think it would've made sense to trade like a fifth rounder for OJ Howard rather than drafting him, but I'm OK with a Chicago kid going to the Bears. Jaylon Johnson is sweet, and I think him and Fuller will be one of the best corner combos in football. Don't understand why we drafted another cornerback, and I'm pretty sure 75% of our roster make up is cornerbacks and tight ends.

This doesn't mean that I am done thinking Ryan Pace is an arrogant douche, but I don't think there is any reason to be mad about the draft. I would've also loved Delpit or Winfield, but I'm happy with getting the top tight end.
