With the 26th Pick ...


I would cry tears of joy if somehow the Bears got Vernon Davis, but if not the Bears will hopefully select Georgia tight end Leonard Pope. I have seen mock drafts with Chicago taking him, some corners and even some O-lineman from Georgia, Max-Jean Giles. Giles isn't projected to go until the second round in most mocks.

Even in the middle of a play it is important to shift the jock strap for maximum breathability.

The Bears now have no need for a corner since they made the worst free-agent move of the offseason by signing Ricky Manning Jr. to a five-year deal after he laid the smack down on some laptop-totting geek in Denny's.

Pope fills a pretty big void at tight end. Chicago boasts the powerful tandem of Desmond Clark and John Gilmore, which is about a good a tandem as Paris Hilton and a video camera. I've seen the tape, it's garbage. Pope is a 6-foot-7, 250-pound red zone dream. Here is what the always cool under pressure Mel Kiper Jr., who is also barking for a spot as one of the ugliest commentators around, had to say about Pope:

"He's an absolutely huge target and is a mismatch every time he's on the field. Georgia relied heavily on Pope in the passing game because he is a rare talent for a player of his size."

He could be just the weapon Chicago needs to be able to open up the passing game for Mushin and company. Now watch, on Saturday, the Bears will select a friggin defensive player when they have the best D in the NFL... stupid draft!
