Packers 37 - Bears 3

The Bears are currently a disaster. Where to start? I'll just start and end with new "Lovie-Speak". He is now focused on the upcoming "6 game season" to right the ship. Here's a good Top Ten that offers common Lovie gripes in Chicago.





This week we are taking a look at GM Jerry Angelo's first pick in each draft since '01 and seeing how he's done.

WR David Terrell - Bust. Not sure if Jerry was calling the shots at this point but Terrell was a collosul failure at #8 in the draft.







OT Mark Colombo - Injurys. Bears finally cut him - starts in Dallas - is he good , who knows. That's for bjcowboys.blog to decide.

DE Michael Haynes - Big Bust at #14






DT Tommie Harris - Me and everyone else in Chicago wanted the Bears to lock Tommie up long term, but don't we expect the GM to be smarter than us? Either his legs are messed up or he took the money and got soft. This is on Angelo for giving money to a guy who may be totally injured and on Lovie for failing to motivate or utilize Tommie effectively.



RB Cedric Benson - #4 in the draft. Didn't work out. Some would say huge bust. (No disrespect to Cedric for using this photo - he was maced before this mugshot and anyway, this is how I want my Bears running back to look after partying on a boat during his off time.)






S Danieal Manning - What is Danieal Manning with the f-ed up spelling and the not knowing where to play him and raw talent and blah? Picked #42. Hasn't worked out so far.

Greg Olsen - Looks like a solid pick.



Chris Williams - Already injured, got injured, not playing, whatever, Bust.

That's a pretty awful track record, but Angelo has been given credit for later round picks, so let's look at his second pick in each draft since '01:





RB Anthony Thomas - Rookie of the year. Soon after, Bears cut him. WTF? Good pick, bad managing of talent.

LB Roosevelt Williams - Who?

QB Rex Grossman - I like Rex, but I recently had to let him go from my heart two weeks ago. If he had a chance to start last week against Green Bay after what we could call a rusty game against the Titans, he could have started working towards regaining my love and trust.

DT Tank Johnson - Good player, bad guy. I will give Angelo credit for cutting him - after the Superbowl.

WR Mark Bradley - I wanted to love Mark. With the Bears, a bust.

Devin Hester - Has having to worry about precise WR route running ruined the wholey individual act of running punts and kicks back like a motherfucker?

Dan Bazuin - Picked at #62, he lasted for a minute on the Bears. Bust

Matt Forte - Good pick.

Being generous and calling some picks bad instead of bust here's the totals -

Bust: 4
Bad: 7
Good: 5

I don't know how that compares to the rest of the league, but it doesn't look good.
