Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
This hour is brought to you by Menards.
Save big money at Menards. If you could redo one of the Bears draft picks, which one would it be and which player would you select in his place?
Okay, so I've thought about this and it's too risky. It's too risky to assume that Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, who went one pick after... Uh, the bears picked in the, uh, you know, who went, it may know McNeil Warren went at a place. The bears could have picked them is my point. I don't know why my brain doesn't want to work on this. Yeah. He was after Logan Jones.
I was looking at the third round for a second. Then my brain went hazy because well, third round and bears.
Ah,
And it's big. It's the idea of redrafting. It's a lot, especially after we just went through the draft.
And that is incredibly hindsight 2020. Yeah. Like that's like hindsight 1510 to be like, oh, well, they could have just waited and gotten Emmanuel McNeil Ward.

Chapter 2: What recent events sparked the discussion about the Bears' draft picks?
Nah, like that. That was insane. So Dylan Thienemann is still your first round pick. Then it becomes, could you have traded up into with some of the picks? You know, you get the pick from Buffalo, as we've mentioned.
Could they have traded up?
Could they have traded up? Yeah. Into the second round where the early action was, as Ryan Poles mentioned, regarding edge. But then you also see, speaking of that third round, which traumatizes me day in and day out in my life. That Sam Roush was the pick number 69 and Romello Height from Texas Tech and Ed Rusher was number 70. Could it have been that simple?
If you were going to pick somewhere, if you were going to risk something, would that have been the place to risk? Do you think that you could have gotten Sam Roush at the Zavion Thomas pick at 89? That's where I think there may be some wiggle room there. I know it's default for me to talk about the third round. But that's where the Bears take risks. Period. Paragraph.
So if that's the case, would you be willing to risk your draft capital there? But I don't think it was as simple as, oh, you could wait for Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, who went one pick after Logan Jones. I don't think the equation is that easy.
Here's the pick on the Bears that, excuse me, the pick that the Bears did not take in the draft that someone else took that I will be watching this season and beyond for very specific reasons. If you go to the third round and the Zavion Thomas pick, taken, traded up for just three picks later by the Dallas Cowboys, was edge rusher Jay Sean Barham. Oh, yeah.
And when you read about Barham as a guy who was an edge rusher and played off-ball linebacker at Michigan, and you read about Dallas' need for him and why they needed him and how he fits a similar profile to another guy that used to be on the Cowboys and now plays for the Packers, It feels like a pick they could have made at 89 instead of Xavion Thomas.
So Romello Height, Ed Drescher graded the 15th best in the Beast third round grade. So he was drafted appropriately according to the Beast. And then Ja'Sean Barham,
was 16th best edge rusher you hear me then don't you third fourth ground grade by the beast so we're both in the same zip code here when it comes to how we want this draft possibly reconfigured and that's not discrediting xavion thomas it's just consensus board consensus so putting everybody's draft boards together clearly they're drafted clearly differently
