I was thinking the exact same thing. No one-and-done NFCN team this year. The division winner should be one of the best in the NFL. This year I don't think any of the division teams will be easy wins for anyone.

Poles said today (in the Eberflus/Poles post-draft presser) that the 5 minute delay is a standard in the draft.

I still think we need to draft a good center and a premium pass rusher next year. DE was pretty weak this year so I'm glad we didn't overreach for one.

I’m not sure about C until I see how these new guys play, but I do want a DE and a DT.

Only if they got the OL right. It appears they believe a new QB and added weapons will help improve overall the OL. Could be a qb playing w/in the system and on schedule might elevate the OL in ways that fans aren't expecting.

But if they are wrong, that is a huge gamble and Williams will suffer b/c of it.

That's a good point. And I have been reminding myself of this too, regarding the OL center. I want to see how the new guys perform here. And it could be the situation where the Bears feel they have a C who is at least league average for 2024 (which is better than we had by far) and in 2025 they can upgrade. But who knows... I'm just going to watch how it goes at C this year.
