Yes please! Need that size and talent in the trenches.
NO WAY. I read he was just 6-4 . At number 10 I would want a taller guy at LT. If he's on the ground too much I am NOT interested. On the ground too much in COLLEGE equals absolute BUST in the NFL. NO WAY . Not at ten. Maybe at 50.
Reaching for Banks at 10 would be a mistake. OL is currently the Bears primary team strength. There will most likely be several better prospects available at 10 and OT isn’t a position of need. This is something loser teams do. I would much rather have the Bears target Ersery the OT from Minnesota with one of there 2nd round picks if possible. He might be better than Banks. Or target another developmental prospects later in the 3rd or later. The first 3 picks should target the best prospects. Players that will impact the team this upcoming season.
ARE THERE examples of O tackles who have won all those awards in college but were busters in the NFL? IDK.😮
I think he is the most likely as Warren, Campbell, Graham and Jeanty may be gone by pick ten.
This is of course if the Bears don't move from 10 to a later pick and maybe a haul.
Your draft guy has him at 53 lol? Oh yeah, let me pay for that guys thoughts.
🐻👍
Banks is my third favorite option after Campbell and Jeanty. Hoge how do you have 5 guys between Warren and Banks lol
The top priority for the Bears is obviously what is best for Caleb's growth so to me that means the top priority of this draft is to protect Caleb's blindside to protect him from harm's way as much as the Bears have it within their power to protect him.
Banks is my number one LT
If Jeanty, Campbell, and Graham are gone I like Banks
Ah yes, you're finally talking about the most realistic option at #10. And the best LT in the Draft. Not a OG. LT.
Heard several "analysts" say he has poor balance and he ends up on the ground much too often. Biggest game against UGA he played poorly against future NFL edge rushers.
NO way at #10.
Hell no. Don't draft Braxton 2.0!
Yessss get him
