Thieneman really falling.

If he makes it to 31, you can't NOT take him.

You don't want to be the idiot that looked past a freak like the Seattle rookie.

They just re-signed Trent Williams.

That's why you Trade up and not sit on your hands.

Moving up that far would have required their second-round pick or a pick in 2027.

Name your WTF? pick. Doesn't have to be a player, just name the position.

I'm going with a CB.

By the way, this might be the worst names I've ever seen in the NFL Draft.

DT is undervalued in the modern day NFL, I’d just want them to take the best starter available. Otherwise trade back….

Ty Warren. Very good player until his hip injury which pretty much ended his career.

Now the issue here is you need some great linebackers to have that system work, and we have Spillane and…….. But I’d still do it if McDonald’s the best guy out there — better to overload and have a ridiculously good position group that we can build around, than just have average players everywhere that can be beat one on one consistently as the playoffs progress.

I think Chicago goes Keldric Faulk, Kayden McDonald, Peter Wood, or Dillon Thieneman.
