Steal of the Draft?! Austin Booker Analysis! What he brings to the Bears || Draft Analysis 

You guys keep underestimating what Tory Taylor will bring to your team. He's a freak. He's a weapon.

The 240 pound reported weight is old news. Booker looks way more buffed now (especially his legs). He's the kind of player that quickly puts on muscle weight

I can't believe we got him in the 5th round! He could have been a first rounder next year if he went back to school and some people compare him to Crosby. BEAR DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!

Lers Go Bears!!!!!! 💪🐻

We do have the potential to be good. But we also have the potential to be over confident and complacent. Lets work hard. Be diligent and don't take anything for granted

Hopefully, with Booker & UDFA Kromah, the Bears will have the backup pieces at DE to fill in until the 2025 draft.

Incredible Draft

Someone stole his leg muscles, how does he walk on those twigs?

Excellent analysis breaking down Bookers game. I too am very happy the Bears drafted him. I had him going at the end of the 3rd round so to get him in the 5th is a huge win. Check out the Edge the Bears signed as a UDFA out of U of Illinois, Richardson is the last name (I think).

All hail King BOOKER !

The Bears could have drafted Cade stover at 122 and made two trades back into the draft (they have a lot of 2025 draft capital) to get Booker then draft taylor - straight.

The bears still need to go out into free agency and sign 2 edges at least. Booker is very raw. He never started in college. Best hope for him for this year is to be a contributor as a situational pass rusher that comes in when one of the starters is a little fatigued

How does he compare to Issac, Braswell, Kneeland & Hunt?

Booker is the steal of the draft! Let's Go! 🐻⬇️

Wait hold it hold everything. Yesterday all yall were saying the punter built like a linebacker was the steal of the draft.

I think everyone knows he a project guy. He wasn’t drafted to be an instant impact player. Poles will look who’s available for an experienced DE.

Whatever happened to Snowden

Tory Taylor wouldn't have been there in the 5th.

Feet are too narrow, pad level too high, bad foot work in run defense (feet get tangled), not strong at the point of attack on run fits (lack of lower body/ core strength), slow get off, lazy feet (again), not an explosive athlete on the field, tweener body type...sorry guys this is a "lets stash him on our practice squad" type of guy and maybe he pans out 2-4 years down the line (probably not) -former pass rusher

I'd give this draft an A+ to be honest. Tory Taylor is an insanely good punter and it'll be good seeing offenses having to go 97-99 yards most of the time we have to punt. We might lead the league in safeties lol. First 2 picks are obviously A+ The BYU tackle I'd give a B+ And Booker an A-. He was being compared to Maxx Crosby and the Dline coach we have worked for the raiders when they drafted Crosby. So I have good faith he'll work out at least good, if not great.
