I don’t care if he’s a punter. We just drafted a hall of Famer

[@Toahhh671]

Only 1 punter went to the hall of fame in the history of the league bro

Yo, as an Iowa fan. I am excited to have this guy punting for the bears. Hope the Lions, packers and vikings enjoy going 90+ yrd on drives and have their avg starting field position be the 15 yrd line

Punting is Winning!!!

[@dasuperfandisciple6684]

Buy the shirt! Hopefully he makes a bears one now!

[@hugh-jasole]

Hawkeyes suck so bad. Cooper Dejean and this dude are the only bright spots on that horrendous awful team.

[@dasuperfandisciple6684]

@@hugh-jasole yet they won 10 games. The defense and SPT were phenomenal, Offense worst ever. The defense is chuck full of draft prospects that returned to try and win the B1G. The offense was the only thing bad not the whole team.

[@hugh-jasole]

@@dasuperfandisciple6684 You really think Ferentz is a good coach? Come on man 😂

[@dasuperfandisciple6684]

@@hugh-jasole he’s the winningest coach in school history 200+ wins and winning 10 games with an Offense as bad as they had last year I don’t think you can be a bad coach a good coach finds ways to win and that’s exactly what happened. Whoever your college team is could your coach win 10 games with the worst offense in college football history?

[@Metalguy86]

This is a great pick! This will really help our defense and make scoring against us a lot more difficult. After the terrible punting we've had, i think this is an excellent pick.

Fantastic to have an Aussie on the Bears!

I thought getting Rome was by far my most favourite pick ever. 2 days later and I'm absolutely howling at this one too! Daaaaa Beaaaarrrrsssssss!

[@acebread3511]

Honestly surprised we got that kind of talent at 9. Poles was legit nervous that dude 😊wouldn't fall.

[@Madskillsuniversity]

Welcome to Chicago Tory! We need you badly! LOL At 6'4" 231 he is an athlete, too. Dude could play TE. LOL. I love his leg! We finally have a punter that can pin a team down inside the 20. It must be special for his Girlfriend as well, being from Chicago. That is awesome. So many Chicago connections in this draft and on this team. Love it!!!

[@ruhroh8658]

When I saw him I was like "is that mfer a DE or a punter?"

[@Madskillsuniversity]

@@ruhroh8658 Love that his girl is from the burbs, too and, he's been to a few Cubs games. LOL

[@gentlemans.guidance365]

Finally someone who can flip the field. Gill was the worst punter the past two years now we got the best in the last decade! Poles is him.

[@Stapleman77]

For years the best player on our team was the Punter. Poles got a edge rusher now too. What a draft 🐻⬇️

[@mitchellwood4133]

Theres an argument that Gould, Maynard, Hester and Manley were the best players by value at their position for 10 years on the bears.

[@shanestahl8788]

Welcome to Chicago brother!

[@goyolo3464]

Yo, I'm already in Iowa Hawkeye fan so this is like a dream come true

[@odinseye8835]

Hell yeah King Poles strikes again. This young man looks like a legit Beast. And we traded back in and took an edge. Bears dominating this draft

[@rodneyharvey8938]

We didn't trade down for Austin booker...we traded our next year 4th for 144

[@chicagosportsfan5406]

They got the 144th pic back from the bills that they gave them for bates. They essentially spent the 2025 4th rounder for Bates and a DL... fine by me

[@Theonlyatoz]

@@chicagosportsfan5406it’s technically the 5th and 4th for bates and booker who is a third to fourth round talent, so it’s like trading our 4th next year for bates and knowledge that booker fell to the 5th which is still fine

[@eldiablony274]

Traded in and took the edge I was rooting for when they drafted this kid..... I love it

[@keithk1559]

​@@rodneyharvey8938We have 11 (now 10) picks next year. Add 2 3rd round picks if Ian Cunningham gets a GM job, up to 12 picks. That 4th round pick is not that big of deal, especially when it's gonna be the last pick in the 4th😉 🐻⬇️ ✌️✝️

Awsom, pick by DA Bears. This guy can really hit that ball. The best punter in this year draft.

[@Sam-kv2zk]

If you got an accent you definitely a good kicker/punter

[@michaelcoffey1991]

At first I was miffed but this being the best Punter I see what Poles is doing to count on that defense and amazing punter can give us a short field more times then not. Him dating a Chicago lady just made it super fun. Rooting for this kid to be a 2 or 3 time pro bowl punter.

[@JamesWoodring-mu2iz]

reggie roby is the best punter iowa ever had

[@natevart4156]

Bruh this is so awesome

[@andylink5420]
