Good pick. Mendenhall would have been fun to watch if the offensive line wasn't in shambles, but they filled a need. And the guy is definitely a left tackle, something that you couldn't be sure about with Otah or Albert.

I have a feeling Mendenhall will still be available in the second round.

Nah...he seems like the perfect Jerry Jones pick w/one of these late 1st round picks.

So close. Felix Jones.

Atlanta trades up to pick Sam Baker.  Someone's gotta block for Matt Ryan, after all.  Good move.  He was being ranked too low by everyone.  I just wish he'd fallen to us so we could make him play Guard.  Brohm will be gone by the time we pick, so Chilo Richal would be awesome.

Of course, we'll get a new linebacker or something instead.

Was there ever really a doubt that Jones(Jerry) would take Jones(Felix)?

Pittsburgh drafts Mendenhall. Rashard won't get a chance to prove himself there, in my opinion. They have Parker AND Davenport if I remember correctly.

Jerry Angelo once again showing he has no capacity to take a chance by not jumping up there to make a trade for Mendenhall.

I don't know college football from my left nut, but I'm going to go ahead and say that if BC was fer it, I was agin it.

I mean, Mendenhall?... Sounds Jewish.

We have no reason to trade up to take a one-year starter in a spread offense.  He's too much of a risk to really be worth a first round pick.  That's why he pulled a Brady Quinn and sank like a rock.

Plus, he can't even beat out Najeh Davenport.  Ever.  Never.  What I can't figure out is, if Pittsburgh doesn't plan on giving this guy a chance to play,  EVER, then why'd they take him in the first?

Glad to see reasonable Bears fans that like the Williams pick. I went to Vandy while Chris was there and he's a great guy who will work his ass off to get better, he went from 240 as a freshman to 315 now and he still has room to get stronger. Looking at all the tackles that have been chosen so far there is no way the Bears could have afforded to go with anything but an OL in the first round, regardless of people's love for Mendenhall. CW gave up two sacks in two years playing in the SEC, I'd say the Bears got a pretty good one

Agreed, but the State of Illinois is doing a yeoman's job of that.
