Bears haven't had offence in years. Will Grossman be able to play more than half the season? The D is great, but at some point in time someone will figure out a weakness, or a key player will get hurt, then they will be fighting with the Lions for last spot.
The Pack are still a mess - one player won't change that. As good a Favre has been, it would have been better for the long term if they could have played Rodgers this season. One great draft pick won't take them to the promised land, and realistically how much more does Brett have in the tank?
I'm wondering if the Lions might not be worth picking players a bit earlier this year? With Martz running the offense they may put up some nice totals. They may not contend, but they are going to pressure some defenses.
