It didn’t go as planned, and they ended up with the fifth pick. They entered the 2019 season attempting to Tank for Tua. But this pick was a coup for the Dolphins. I’m the biggest Justin Herbert fan there is. Miami Dolphins: Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama - Pass If Giants were looking for a left tackle, Mekhi Becton was available - and is better. Thomas needs to work on his hand usage, which is doable because he’s got awesome footwork and ability to recover. Drafting Thomas means they’re moving Nate Solder to right tackle, which isn’t a position he’s played much in the NFL. I don’t think it’s that bad of a “fail” for the Giants, but there were better tackles on the board. New York Giants: Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia – Fail The Lions had to make this pick to get their defense back on track. He loves to tackle as well, which can be uncommon with that position.
And with Darius Slay gone, Okudah can be that guy. Can you find me an elite defense without an elite corner? Nope. Detroit Lions: Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State - Pass Pair him with Ryan Kerrigan, and Washington has a formidable pass rush. He’s also able to counter well, including a spin move. It’s hard to find pass rushers out of college with multiple refined moves. Young was the highest-graded player in the draft for most people. Washington: Chase Young, DE, Ohio State - Passĭouble duh. This was always the pick, and the Bengals didn’t bungle it. The intangibles, the leadership, showing up in big games, and his ability to find the hole in the defense and attack it - all elite. Burrow had one of the best college seasons of all time. This was the clear choice for the Bengals. Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU - Passĭuh. I gave them all a pass or fail grade, depending on who was drafted and what other options there were. Instead of assigning every first-round pick a specific grade - which Dan Kadar already did - I went with a different approach. Things got a little more unpredictable after that. No one traded up in the top 10, and there wasn’t an unexpected pick until the middle of the first round. I don’t think a 32 year old Browner could cover man to man at this point in his career to give the Bears any quality play.For all the pre-draft talk about trades, surprise picks, and overall wildness, the top of the 2020 NFL Draft went as chalk as it can go. In other ‘OMG the Bears should sign this guy that was just cut’ news, the Seattle Seahawks just pink slipped corner Brandon Browner. He hadn’t played in the past two preseason games, which really could have helped his case to make the final roster, but either his injury was too much or the Lions had already made up their mind.” He continues on saying Schwartz was “missing practices regularly due to injuries. But Schwartz turned out to be a tad unreliable himself,” according to the Pride Of Detroit’s Jeremy Reisman. “Schwartz was brought along to help add a veteran presence and some experienced depth to the Lions’ young, unreliable offensive line.

‘And in 2013 PFF had him graded as the 8th best guard in all the land, so he must be an upgrade for the Bears! I mean he can’t be any worse than what the Bears have now!’

‘But Lester, Pro Football Focus had Schwartz graded really good last year! I even have picture proof to prove it!” So, if you connect the dots, you’d realize that the Bears can’t plug a mauler like Schwartz into the interior of their line and continue running the zone blocking scheme. If 100% healthy, the 6’6”, 340 pound Schwartz could probably help a man or power based offensive line scheme, but the Bears have been running a lot of zone stuff this preseason. Hip, toe, ankle and leg injuries have stolen a possible 22 games from his career. He does have 39 starts from 2009-2015 at both guard and right tackle, while appearing in 74 total games, but injuries have been a constant issue for him. Schwartz (30 years old) was released by the Detroit Lions earlier today after only about five months in Detroit.
So, should the Bears sign Geoff Schwartz? I finished my leftover pizza in a matter of minutes, so I had time as my lunch break wound down to slap together a quickie.
El Jefe himself, Dane Noble, asked us Windy City Gridiron writers if any of us had a few minutes to knock out a quick “Should the Bears sign Geoff Schwartz?” article.
