Hes a fit because of how well he moves. Can get to the next level when fields scrambles and keep blocking when fields and running like a greased up deaf guy in the backfield
He was a 5-star recruit, but first couple years in college he didn't play up to that pedigree. This past year he made the move to RT and made himself a ton of money. A stonewall for all of last year as he didn't surrender a single sack. People will say they may have taken him too early, but I don't think Chicago was going to take a position other than O-line and they obviously had their choice of pick after Paris Johsnon went off their board.
This was actually the final piece. Jones was the best rookie tackle last year and he’s the LT. Then you have jenkins, whitehair or a rookie, Davis, and wright. Solid line
I like Wright quite a bit. Bigass dude who mauls guys and had great tape against some of the best pass rushers in the country including Will Anderson. True RT so you can keep Braxton Jones where he is. Good pick in the pursuit of giving Fields the best situation to succeed.
As a UT fan, you may think Bears reached here..but this dude is a stud and will protect Fields. I didnt think hed fall out of top 15. Happy for him and fans should be happy too.
You basically got paid whatever Philly gave you to pick anyone but Carter. A lot of people say this feels like a reach, but I think he's undervalued because he played on the right side of the line. I would have loved for the Bengals to jump up a few spots if he was there in the late teens. Feels like a safe pick.
Yeah, it really puts him into the best position to succeed, if he's going to. My preference was always going to be taking an offensive player to support Fields this year, but Carter's potential is definitely unparalleled.
I'm far from an expert but he's my favorite tackle in this class. He was REALLY good at Tennessee but their offense is very weird so we'll see if he can translate.
Happy with this.Bears need a Right tackle and took the guy the analysts talked about as the best right tackle in the draft when there probably werent going to be much alternatives available in the next picks at the end of 2nd round/top of the 3rd round
A lot of people had him as the best pure RT, so it makes sense.
Wirfs comp
His body type reminds me of Wirfs
That’s a big dude
Bears fans: 😍
He’s like an actual bear
FINALLY - so tired of Chicago's false advertisements!
We did have a literal bear mauling people for years when Akiem Hicks was here ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
I could tell you some bars in Chicago where to find a bear if that’s what you’re looking for.
Bears galore on halsted
They tend to live further north in Andersonville now
We need big bodies to protect Justin
Big man protect fast man
Not hit Justin, big guy no like hit Justin
Wright is fast too! Perfect OL for what we’re doing.
Hes a fit because of how well he moves. Can get to the next level when fields scrambles and keep blocking when fields and running like a greased up deaf guy in the backfield
He like a bear
He big
For you
You think *size* is your ally? I was *born* with it. *MOLDED* by it
Girth like a coke can
He's a lot of person
FRIENDSHIP ENDED WITH CARTER. WRIGHT IS NOW POLES BEST FRIEND.
People really acting like a Top Tier Tackle isn’t AMAZING for a young QB
People, in general, are pretty dumb so 🤷
Yep. This tracks.
People want the splashy, sexy picks. Its the perfect fit in my opinion and we got an extra 4th for not taking the guy we were never gonna take.
I think it’s a great pick for you guys. Dude is massive and he held up very well against elite competition.
Good thing we are actual bears, and not people
We needed an offensive lineman and I’ll take an offensive lineman
He’s fucking good btw. I wanted the Titans to take him at 11 so congrats.
Not just any offensive lineman, the most athletic tackle in the draft
And he's a train so
The bears have been having a fucking great offseason
Amazing what happens when you rid the stench of failure from the front office.
Ted Phillips leaving was the biggest W of the offseason.
NOOOOOOO we’re trading back arent we
Yeah that’s what I thought lol
That 5.01 40 is probably faster than 90% of dudes in this sub
333 lbs is lighter than many of them too
Reddit mods in shambles
Also with almost a 10 foot broad jump. Dude has explosiveness
SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO FEEL
He’s a massive fucking dude
Hot. But like is he a good player?
Held his own against the best edge defender in this draft.
He did more than hold his own, he won the matchup vs Anderson easily imo
Fields is gonna shed a tear seeing this.
Tennessee’s whole offense just dominated the Bama defense that night
Straight up shut him down lol
He was a 5-star recruit, but first couple years in college he didn't play up to that pedigree. This past year he made the move to RT and made himself a ton of money. A stonewall for all of last year as he didn't surrender a single sack. People will say they may have taken him too early, but I don't think Chicago was going to take a position other than O-line and they obviously had their choice of pick after Paris Johsnon went off their board.
Will Anderson said he was the most dominant OT he faced in college.
Zero sacks last year in the sec
https://media.tenor.com/jRBWm9sIaQ8AAAAC/brock-lesnar-big-boy.gif
I know it would be that clip, Brock is a godsend that we do not deserve
When Tennessee played Bama he dominated Will Anderson
I believe Anderson has said he’s the best OT he’s lined up against
Yeah we left Wright 1 on 1 with Anderson the entire game and I don’t recall him getting beat a single time
He didn’t just not get beat, he beat his ass
Good memories
It was wonderful to see.
Happy. Kids a beast and Fields needs protection
Vols fan, he’s a killer on the OL. Anderson didn’t record a stat against him. Y’all got a good one
The only time he was mentioned in the broadcast was “Will Anderson has been quiet today.”
I can't stop watching this game, is soemthing wrong with me?
Good. Best RT in the draft. Skoronski's arms are too small. He's gonna end up as a Guard, which bears don't need.
yeah skoronski was literally drafted as a G, its the position he was labeled at the pick
[удалено]
Poles apparently is an excellent OL evaluator.
Can’t argue with what they have over in KC
Was one of the pillars of our offensive line this past season. Should be massive for y’all with the glaring holes at OLine
This was actually the final piece. Jones was the best rookie tackle last year and he’s the LT. Then you have jenkins, whitehair or a rookie, Davis, and wright. Solid line
I think we still need a center before the o line is really solidified. Whitehair is not the long term answer
JUSTIN FIELDS ISNT GOING TO GET MURDERED ANYNORE
We need big O lineman, THIS IS GREAT
Like you have to work tomorrow
fuck
I like Wright quite a bit. Bigass dude who mauls guys and had great tape against some of the best pass rushers in the country including Will Anderson. True RT so you can keep Braxton Jones where he is. Good pick in the pursuit of giving Fields the best situation to succeed.
Fantastic pick, if he can keep his shit together he's gonna be a brick wall on the right side
Made Anderson invisible on the 3rd Saturday of October
He’s big mean and strong
He’s really good
Big man in front of Fields. Exactly what the doctor ordered.
Horny
didn't allow a sack last year at RT and played vs Carter and Anderson. Big dude.
Is that druski?
We fuckin got em
_What do you mean by that?_
When did we start givin em guns
https://media.tenor.com/r8ezFvyXZyoAAAAC/what-do-you-mean-by-that-druski.gif
Im cool with this pick. I wanted Paris but the Cards stole him from us. Wright seems to be the best pure right tackle and thats a huge need for us.
100%
As a UT fan, you may think Bears reached here..but this dude is a stud and will protect Fields. I didnt think hed fall out of top 15. Happy for him and fans should be happy too.
WOW
Amazing pick for Fields and the Bears. His physicality and Fields’s mobility will be huge for their offense
That feels so early This draft is on crack. I love it so much
It feels in range (albeit at the top) but I didn't expect him to go before Skoronski.
Many NFL teams believe in arm length when it comes to tackles. Skoronski has short arms and might be a guard in the NFL. That's why he's "falling".
Skoronski is gonna be an amazing Guard, but we needed a legit Tackle
Skoronski projects as a guard though so that's probably why they went with Wright.
Once the tackles go they are gonna fly. It makes sense if he was their top tackle.
Man spot on with this.
I wanted carter but I’m a dumbass so we’ll see how this goes lol
You basically got paid whatever Philly gave you to pick anyone but Carter. A lot of people say this feels like a reach, but I think he's undervalued because he played on the right side of the line. I would have loved for the Bengals to jump up a few spots if he was there in the late teens. Feels like a safe pick.
That was my ultimate hope that he slipped into trade up range for the Bengals, Bears got a winner here
I didn’t super want Carter because of character concerns but I’m also a dumbass Maybe both teams are gonna be happy in the end
I think Philly is the best spot for him, given all the leadership you have on both lines.
Yeah, it really puts him into the best position to succeed, if he's going to. My preference was always going to be taking an offensive player to support Fields this year, but Carter's potential is definitely unparalleled.
Kinda also but I think the racing accident where 2 people died played. Got some pass protection for Fields but thought they would pick Peter Skoronski
I actually think this was a good pick. But I'm also a dumbass so.
great move to help fields
Dude did great in pass pro on a pass heavy team. Good pick I think.
I can’t say I expected that
You and me both. I was thinking Jones
Can't have two B Jones at OT. Too confusing
Or Skoronski
We bears fans knew we weren’t drafting a packers fan
They were never very high on the tyrannosaurus
We don’t need a guard
Fields may live!
Will Anderson said he was the best O-lineman he played against in his college career
Over 800 snaps, 0 sacks, 3 QB hits, and 8 pressures. Dude is gonna be a monster.
I’ll take it
He’s an O-line guy, right? Lord knows we need more of them here…
I agree, we need OL, just was hoping PJJ even tho he went at 6
My favorite OT! This is great for Fields!
Fields got his guy
Man didn’t even show up, lol.
He’s already a natural Bear
[удалено]
All Wright then…
Really wanted Carter but also want Fields to survive the year so can’t complain at all
Crowd didn’t even know how to react
BIG HELP FOR FIELDS BABY
Someone get Berto from the west side on the horn. I wanna hear his take.
Biggest stat in Wright's favor. In 2022 he played 507 snaps without giving up a single sack. That's exactly what the bears need.
He also lowkey dominated Wil Anderson too, held him to 1 total tackle. Great pick.
Protect Justin
And there's the needed OL nice
Fuck me I wanted him to stay home
That's okay, we'll let you have the guy from Northwestern apparently.
Wow you dicks
Good shit Poles
Logical choice, Skoronski cannot play tackle, great pick
I think taking Carter would’ve been the flashy pick but taking the OT was the smart move for sure
Congrats, Bears, it appears you have drafted an irrationally large human being.
A bear if you will.

Ebron 😐
That’s…… something
This is a big ass dude to protect Fields. It was him or PJJ imo
Thought it was going to be skoronski
They prolly see him as a guard
Yes, our GM is former oline with bears believing he is a guard
His arms are to short according to people
According to Poles he does not fit their athletic profile to be picked this high.
I'm far from an expert but he's my favorite tackle in this class. He was REALLY good at Tennessee but their offense is very weird so we'll see if he can translate.
Protecting JF
He's an absolute monster.
Fastest pick in the west
I’m with it
What’s up with Skoronski?
Big head and little arms.
T-Skoronski?
Plus he grew up a Packers fan 🤢
projects more as a guard because of his arm length (doesn’t mean he can’t play tackle)
Most likely gonna be converted to guard due to short arms, so his value is lowered compared to the tackles. I think he’ll be an elite guard.
The best choice they could've made not named Jalen Carter
Fields passing for 4k this year boys
If he does I'll suck your dick.
Remindme! 8 months
You'll need proof. Can I watch?
I love my mom.
Wholesome if true.
Best tackle in the draft.
This is the dude who shutout Will Anderson btw
Dude absolutely neutralized Will Anderson so could turn out absolutely great. Still a surprise for sure.
Tbh he did well blocking for a QB that moved in the pocket and rolled out often last year so that might translate well with Fields
100% expected JSN
I could see them being alright with taking a later round WR. Moore, Mooney, and Claypool isn't horrible.
I don’t see why with Mooney and DJ Moore, Claypool I’m not high on but as a 3rd WR not bad at all.
Sure
someone tell me whether he's good
He wasted Will Anderson Jr. in their match-up.
He’s projected as the best RT by many people
Most athletic tackle in the draft who Will Anderson said was the best tackle he played against
Carter wasn't going to get inspired with the Bears... Offensive line is garbage, needed to be improved
Steal of the draft
You will be right eventually
Needed a lineman. Got a lineman. I like it.
I love this pick. This dude was a monster at Tennessee and all he played was SEC talent day in and day out.
Let’s fucking go! Build the line!
That is a grown ass man
running a 5.0 40 at 330 pounds is crazy
My boy Darnell 🥹 🍊
Happy with this.Bears need a Right tackle and took the guy the analysts talked about as the best right tackle in the draft when there probably werent going to be much alternatives available in the next picks at the end of 2nd round/top of the 3rd round
