LAKE FOREST, Ill.
Layvin
Kurzawa Jersey . - Chicago Bears general manager Phil Emery has a short
list of candidates he expects to be available with the 14th pick in next weeks
draft. Six players, to be precise. "Id be happy that two out of the six were on
the board at our pick, and Id be ecstatic if three out of the six were on the
board at our pick," Emery said Thursday. The Bears went 8-8 last season and
missed the playoffs for the sixth time in seven years, hurt by a defence that
ranked among the leagues worst. Emery has spent the off-season overhauling that
group, bringing in Jared Allen and parting ways with Julius Peppers. The
makeover figures to continue in the draft even though Emery would not rule out
going with an offensive player at No. 14. The most obvious holes, though, are on
defence. The Bears still could use help on the defensive line, at linebacker and
in the secondary. Assuming they go with a defensive player — and assuming they
keep the pick — the options at 14 could include Pittsburgh defensive tackle
Aaron Donald, Alabama free safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Oklahoma State
cornerback Justin Gilbert. Dropping back a few spots could give the Bears more
selections, and Emery said he has been fielding calls from teams looking to move
up. "Just say in theory you go down six picks," Emery said. "That means you have
to count your pick youre giving up is one, and if youre going to pick six picks
later, you have to have six players on the board that have that graded value
that youre comfortable taking. ... So if you dont have that number of players
you feel good about you shouldnt trade." Emery also indicated that trading up is
unlikely. "Trade ups are expensive, obviously, and you just have to feel like
that that player youre trading up for makes a dynamic difference in your team,"
he said. The Bears have already made plenty of noise this season. They made a
huge splash when they signed Allen, hoping the five-time Pro Bowl defensive end
energizes a defence that ranked 30th overall and last against the run. He had 11
1/2 sacks last season, his seventh straight in double figures, and is a solid
run defender. The Bears also added defensive ends Lamarr Houston and
Willie Young along with safeties Ryan Mundy and M.D. Jennings. They brought back
cornerback Charles Tillman on a one-year deal, re-signed defensive tackle
Jeremiah Ratliff to a two-year contract and split with safety Major Wright.
There have been some big moves. But there are still some big questions. The
starting safety spots are up for grabs after Wright and Chris Conte struggled
last season. Emery called it "a wide-open competition, best player wins." Wright
signed with Tampa Bay in the off-season. Conte had shoulder surgery in late
March and could start training camp on the physically unable to perform list,
although Emery expects him to be ready for the first preseason game. Emery also
said hes "absolutely" comfortable with Jordan Palmer backing up Jay Cutler at
quarterback, with Josh McCown now in Tampa Bay. And he made that clear when the
team started off-season workouts last month. "Same thing I told Josh: Glad youre
here, looking forward to your contributions and were counting on you," Emery
said. "And Jordan, since the time that he came last year has been nothing but a
positive." Emery also reiterated the teams long-held desire not to be documented
on HBOs "Hard Knocks," although he acknowledged the decision is not the
organizations. He cited the franchises history, fan base and interest as reasons
to look elsewhere. "I think theres a number of teams that dont have as much
attraction, have as big a base for whatever reasons — their population or their
history," he said. "Obviously, this is a tremendous, historic franchise. I think
there will probably be other places that could benefit from it other than the
Chicago Bears. Hows that for an answer?"

right knee on Friday when he collided with Anaheims Emerson Etem during a
pre-season game.Flowery Branch, GA (SportsNetwork.com) - Atlanta Falcons wide
receiver Julio Jones again sat out practice Friday because of a hip injury and
was listed as questionable for Sundays game against New Orleans. Jones was hurt
in the fourth quarter of a game two weeks ago against Green Bay and missed last
Sundays contest against Pittsburgh. He has been unable to practice since
suffering the injury. The former Alabama star has 93 receptions for 1,428 yards
and six touchdowns this season. He was leading the NNFL in receiving yards
before Pittsburghs Antonio Brown surpassed him last week.

Matuidi Paris Saint-Germain Jersey. Safety William Moore, who also sat out
last week with a right foot injury he suffered in the Green Bay game, was a
limited participant in practice the past two days and is also questionable for
Sunday. The Falcons enter the contest one game behind the Saints for the lead in
the NFC South and a win Sunday would give them a tiebreaker advantage over New
Orleans with a sweep of the season series.
