Well, I look at day two and day three, and even you could lump day one in there if you want.
00:09
I would never know, nobody would ever know, if you didn't read it in his bio, that the
00:17
Bears general manager played offensive tackle in college.
00:20
You would never know that this was the work of a former offensive lineman.
00:26
Because stereotypically, you would think that former offensive linemen, guys who went
00:30
to college on scholarship for their ability to block and spend four years in the trenches,
00:37
would want to build their football team from the ball on out.
00:41
And that is certainly not what this general manager has done.
00:44
This is his fourth draft.
00:46
By the end of the show, I hope that somebody can define for me what his traits are as a
00:52
drafter, as somebody who is an architect of a football team.
00:57
What blueprint is he working off of?
00:59
Is it build from the ball on out?
01:02
Focus on the trenches?
01:04
Or is it go for skill and worry about the rest later?
01:09
Or is it whatever I feel like on any given day, in any given pick, is the direction I'm
01:15
going to go?
01:15
Because I operate by letting the board talk to me.
01:18
You know what the board is saying to you?
01:21
Grasp the obvious.
01:23
Look at your depth chart.
01:25
You should have one.
01:27
So, the overall draft, you're not upset about.
01:32
But I do think it's very curious.
01:34
The longer this went on on Friday and Saturday, the more curious it became.
01:38
So, the best pick, I think when we look back in five years, the best pick is going to be
01:42
Luther Byrd in the third.
01:43
Because I do think he's the most dangerous.
01:46
The biggest reach, I was surprised that they took Ozzy Trapilo from Boston College when
01:55
they need a left tackle.
01:57
They drafted a guy with better experience at right tackle.
02:00
And he's big and everyone says the same thing.
02:02
He's tall and he needs to work on getting lower.
02:05
But if he's not ready to play this season, then that will be a reach.
02:10
And if he isn't ready to play this season, why did you take him in the second round?
