Tight Ten: Bears Buzz, Pat Bryant Training Camp MVP, & Pass Catcher BILL | Aug 12

But before I get going for today, I do have one news and note that I wanted to give everybody before actually getting into my tweets.

And that is, I was talking to a person that is very clued in with the Chicago Bears.

And before I give you this, I'm just going to say, I'm not going to give the information out as to who it is or anything like that.

But I was working with somebody that is very clued in with the Chicago Bears, someone with a long history with the organization.

And what they were telling me was, Obviously, I can't be at every training camp.

The Chicago Bears training camp would be the one that I could probably attend because it's closest to where I live.

But for that training camp and all the practices and talking to coaches and being around that building so much, it was very clear and obvious to them who the number one pass catcher in that offense was going to be.

I'm not going to share any names.

I'm not going to say anything about who gave me this information.

But the answer was Luther Burden.

Very clearly, super involved in the offense.

Very clearly, the focal point of the offense, somebody that was going to ascend.

Now, do I think that this is going to continue to happen, given the fact that he's dealing with an injury? I think it's possible, and the source didn't really have more information on that either, but...

I think it's possible that they come up with other strategies and this just gives them another avenue to potentially get someone like Colston Loveland more involved.

But I'm going to draft as much of Luther Burden as I possibly can as he's falling into the fifth round.

He was in the fifth round in my Best Ball Mania draft yesterday.

I haven't done many redraft drafts yet, so I can't really speak to that.

But as he continues to fall and plummet as we get closer to the season, Luther Burden will be one of the guys that I'm going to be big flag-planting I talked about this in other formats before, but the routes that he ran were very similar to the same types of routes that Amon Ross St.

Brown ran in the same Ben Johnson offense.

And then on top of that, you get Ben Johnson doing the quotes about basically comparing him to Amon Ross St.

Brown.

And while his talent wasn't necessarily there last year to be to that level, I will say that Amon Ross St. Brown's talent, even when he did amazing as his rookie season, was not up to par to where even the burden was in his rookie season with the charting metrics.

Better separation, better all sorts of stuff all around.

He was really great at yak.

I will say that Amon Ross was great at yak.
