I hope they stand pat...I prefer them to suck.

But they did have one of the worst offensive lines in the history of football, so if they do want to improve, I'd suggest starting there. When the Packers defense records 9 sacks against you, you know things are bad. Even Cletidus Hunt got a sack...that's damn pathetic.

are those people supposed to be the superfans? yeesh

as everyone said, o-line. this is a team that, in this crummy division, quite possibly makes the playoffs with a decent offensive line.

will mike williams be around at #4? im not sure of any olineman this year worthy of a top 5 pick, does anyone have any names or is this something they should address via free agency?

i would say williams would be around at 4, but im with everybody else and think they need o line too, if you dont want it at that pick they should trade down then, but that offense isnt going anywhere if they dont improve the o line.

I'd like them to stand pat too. I think you hit the nail on the head though. They have to improve their line. A decent receiver would help too.

Their defense isn't too bad so if I were them I'd focus most of my draft and free agency money on the offense.

If the o-line gets healty then they dont really need to worry about it. And as everyone else said definatly draft Williams or Edwards. But what they really need is a play-making/shut-down corner. Charles Tillman can't get the job done. It would really solidified an already very very good defense.

Trading Urlacher probably wouldn't hurt. That guy is a tool.

Despite how much Nick Barnett reminded me of Bernardo Harris this year...NO. :)

I hate to break it you people, but they have to worry about an offensive coordinator before they start thinking about skilled position players to draft. If they bring Turner back, they definitely will draft a WR (probably Mike Williams). However, they still have bad memories of the whole David Terrell incident.

Don't be surprised to see them draft a right tackle or guard (to match up with Olin Kruetz).

Yes the Packers please. I really like Urlacher. As a Packer fan it's tough to say I like a Bear, but he is just an awesome player.

Everybody needs a shutdown cornerback, but they're tough to find, especially with the new pass defense rules. Certainly with the Bears playing Moss, Walker, Driver, and R. Williams twice a year though they need some solid DBs.

I'm serious. I really like Urlacher. I'd love to see him in a Packer's uniform.
