[Brad Biggs] (@BradBiggs) on X: #Bears are choosing Texas DT Shemar Turner with the 62nd overall pick in Round 2. Very nice addition to the middle of the defensive line. Dennis Allen finally gets in on the action.

Eh
WE DRAFTED A DEFENSIVE PLAYER LETS GOOOO
Goodbye Kaleb dreams but love another trench pick
Ok but are we really just gonna have Deandre Swift back there again this year?
Love this pick. Wanted him or Darius. Such a great move
Damn I’m actually like 10 minutes behind on my tv
Yeah saw him there with our last pick and was wondering if he was our guy. Then Seth Rollins happened and I got distracted.
Wanted an EDGE but a good depth pick here.
Excellent
as an aggie. this pick excites me very much. hes my favorite out of the three aggies taken so far.

Launch Zach Pickens into the sun
Launch Kiran Amegadije into the sun
Don’t love this spoiler ngl
If this dude pans out, we now have 4 solidly above average to very good interior DL. That is the kind of depth that wears down an opponent’s OL. Interior push is so underrated
Like addressing the defense- rb at 109 perhaps?
Brashard Smith szn
Dont we already have like 4 3 techs?
This kid is a bit of a nutcase. Every A&M game I watched, he either drew a stupendously stupid personal foul, picked a fight, or both. They better spend the off-season drilling the Aggie out of him.
Good pick. I’m slightly higher on Alexander, but Turner might be a better scheme fit for Allen. Glad we used these two picks to address trenches.
Isn’t he hurt?
Damn first pick i straight up don’t like. Norman-Lott was right there…

I love the idea of DT, I just do not think he is a good player. Omar Norman Lott and Darius Alexander will be better players.
Lance Briggs going wild on chgo for this pick has been hilarious lmao
Love this pick!!
Alright what’s the new complaint now that Poles has addressed the trenches??
I love this sentence from the Overview (scroll down):
Like what they’ve done so far. Having both buckeye backs gone by 39 is my only complaint because I do believe they would’ve drafted judkins or Henderson if available.
Having all these picks but swap in Henderson for Burden and I think that would be top notch.
As an Ag, Shemar is my dude and I’m thrilled. He plays his ass off, one of my favorite Ags in recent memory. He’s gonna make stupid penalties, but the dude just loves the game and wants to win
Great pick. Needed more depth
Turner is awesome and nasty.
Is pick 72 too rich for skattebo?
Hate this pick. 21% missed tackle rate, 6% pass rush win rate, not a good run defender, bad grades across the board, only two sacks last year with a really low pressure percentage, and can’t take on double-teams. This is Zacch Pickens 2.0. Downvote me all you want.
Omarr Norman Lott, CJ West, and Jamaree Caldwell were right there if we wanted DL.
Feels more like pickens pick.
Missed 23 tackles, awful.
Averaged 1 stop a game.
No explosive plays.
Gets multiple penalties.
And we used a 2nd oh him.
Awful day, come on Poles!
Ok now this pick i love. Tough as nails and atheltic as hell. Capable of getting some sacks from the inside. But Dayo better be worth the money, cuz we have nothing else at Edge haha
He’s an absolutely elite hand fighter, and if he’s big/strong enough to actually play inside in the league, he’ll be incredibly difficult to deal with. He might be the kind of guy that blows up in 2 years if he focuses on getting bigger the right way.
Aggie fan here. Thought Shemar was the most dominant player on the Aggie DL despite two players from the unit drafted ahead of him. At times he was completely unblockable. He does, however, run hot at times. Like “out of body experience I’m about to commit felony assault” hot.
As a Bears fan living in College Station: Awesome pick!
