In a moment of honesty, I’ll admit that the Khalil Herbert pick was something of a head-scratcher when it flashed across my screen. The Bears already had David Montgomery, Damian Williams, and Tarik Cohen in the fold. And with Artavis Pierce and Ryan Nall angling for playing time, the fit didn’t make sense. But given some time to chew on it, Herbert makes sense on multiple levels. For instance, there is no such thing as too much running back depth. The Bears saw first-hand how depth can quickly evaporate when David Montgomery and Tarik Cohen missed time due to injuries. Secondly, running backs like Herbert provide special teams value (which shouldn’t be overlooked). And finally, Herbert was a value pick. Some analysts and insiders had fourth-round grades on Herbert. PFF liked him as a top-100 prospect and the site’s RB5 in this class. Getting a top-5 prospect at an offensive skill position in the sixth round is a tremendous value
The • ESPN’s Josina Anderson had Bears Twitter simutaneously on pins and needles and clenching with two tweets sent a few hours apart yesterday: I still feel the #Bears have to find a way to make something happen at QB. There's too much pressure on things going better in the 2021 season for that front office to stand pat. Maybe Nick Foles (who has won more or as many SB as some QBs out there who want to move) can be pkgd. Welp…
• As of press time, Anderson hasn’t tweeted anything since. “Welp…” indeed. • Sometimes a “welp…” tweet is just that. Like when I get home from grocery shopping, only to realize I forgot to pick up one key ingredient for the dessert I’m making. There’s a decent chance the “welp…” tweet had nothing to do with the Bears or a QB splash acquisition. But it didn’t stop us (or anyone else) from wondering. To this point, there’s been no concrete news on either front. But when a high-profile reporter puts that out into the universe, it’s going to get passed around and talked about.
