I kinda feel like we may go for a Notre Dame target. Kmet or Claypool.. Claypool because hes versatile perhaps? And then the second one will be someone we dont see coming.. Bradlee Anae? So excited
I would really hate atm us going for a TE with our 1st pick. Pace cant pick a solid TE if his life depended on it. And it kind of does.
Claypool is kinda an Evan Engram type hybrid WR/move TE
The Bears didn't have a first-round pick (due to the Khalil Mack trade), but they found a nice talent available in Cole Kmet. He can run well for his size and is willing to drag defenders for a few yards. I think he was undervalued in this draft. However, it was interesting to see them pick a tight end after signing Jimmy Graham as a free agent and using a second-round pick on the position a couple of years ago (Adam Shaheen). Johnson was a very good value pick as a physical outside corner. He played hurt in 2019, but was still highly competitive.
Once again, it really shows you how the draft is such a crap shoot in terms of who's gonna be available when. Same thing with "Big Boards"--no two are identical, often there are striking differences.
Josh Jones and Denzel Mims were players almost always mocked to the 1st round. Early 2nd at latest. Mims fell all the way to 59 Jones fell all the way to the 3rd round! (Cardinals just landed their starting RT in round 3!)
Uche, Epensa, Baun, and Chinn all went way later than predicted.
