292-nfl draft

yesterday i spent 4 1/2 hours waiting for the bears 1st round draft pick. i've never watched the draft before, but the bears were actually good last year and i wanted to see what they would do. so what did they do after 4 1/2 hours of waiting? they traded the pick!!! i couldn't believe it! i had just wasted my whole morning. i'm definitely no draft expert and i only watch football for the bears and fantasy, but here is my take on the bears draft:

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

the defense was ranked 2nd last year and the offense was ranked 29th, yet they go with all defense for the first five picks? actually, i know what they are thinking. it is probably easier to keep their defense ranked second than it is for them to improve their offense enough to where it will make a difference. here's my take for those who will listen (please note i think the bears needed a receiver or tight end to help the offense more than anything):

1st round: they traded this pick for a 2nd and 3rd round, which i think they did b/c the guy they really wanted was santonio holmes. this was the guy the steelers picked to replace antwaan randle el. the bears tried to get el, but he signed with the steelers (more $$$). i think the bears wanted holmes to be their randle el, but the steelers stole him, so they traded the pick rather than pick some guy they really didn't want. however, they still could have had marcedes lewis, a tight end, or chad jackson, another top receiver, at this pick.

2nd round: danieal manning - so this is their actually first pick and i understand they could use a safety since they traded mike green (who the coaches tried to bench but couldn't since mike brown kept getting hurt), but who is this guy? apparently he went to a small school b/c he couldn't qualify academically at nebraska. sounds like a 'smart' pick to me. i heard someone say that is a unique way to spell his name, i think he just can't spell. could have had sinorice moss,WR.

devin hester - is this the guy they got to be our randle el? i hope not. i know he is quick, but he had a total of 10 catcher in college. best case scenario he turns out to be our kick and punt returner. could have had anthony fasano or leonard pope, TE

3rd round - dusty dvoracek - ok, they just missed leonard pope here, but the went with defense for the 3 consecutive pick. it's obvious they could care less about offense. anyway, first they get a guy who can't spell and apparently this guy had to attend anger management classes in college.

this is pretty much where i lose interest, the bears continued to draft defense and then with their last two picks got a blocking full-back and an offensive lineman. way to improve that offense guys! maybe we can get david terrell back!
