100% yes. We have Marcus Mariota otherwise with no guarantee we can get to a place to get McCarthy, Nix, etc. the pick at 2 has to be a QB.

His wrist snap and arm usage and decisions are NFL level. He has clean mechanics, although he doesn’t use his torso enough on his throws. He is an athletic guy that can use his legs to give him time to develop. His cons are well stated: he takes too many hits and he looks like a stick figure. Maye’s mechanics are really sloppy at times. I really like his middle of field throws and athletic ability and size, though. He has a rocket for an arm, too. But his footwork is sloppy and he has a penchant to sack himself. I think he’s probably more likely to be healthy but also needs a bit more work. I’m not sold on Williams mechanically, either. He takes a lot of time to throw and the stuff he gets away with in college won’t be the case in the NFL. I think Daniels has the most upside. Caleb has the highest ceiling (yes, I view them different… upside is growth potential and ceiling is overall best) and Maye has the consistency angle. I waiver back and forth.

I think I’m leaning Daniels at 2 right now… but I go in waves. I’ll settle in by the draft. If it’s Maye I can see Mariota seeing significant time to start the season and I don’t like it.

Comrade and wanting people fired. Name a more iconic duo.

I think there is a lot of cope going on now. They are going to take Caleb Williams. If they don’t it’s for one or two reasons: 1) His red flags checked out. 2) They liked another QB more. If they like another QB more they better be sure they trade with us and only us and they’re sure who we’re taking. Too much risk.

I want to be clear: Absolutely anything could happen. I don’t pretend to know what other people are thinking. It’s entirely possible that the Bears trade the pick. But the odds are tremendously low. I think Fields is better than people give him credit for. Surrounding cast matters and his hasn’t been great. They now have a good cast surrounding the quarterback and it would be a great time to add a, say, MHJ and Bowers to the offense. But, the odds aren’t in favor of that happening.

I think it’s a foregone conclusion… But whether that happens or not won’t affect the Bears decision. They’re going QB, and it’s likely Williams.

I love the “overthink everything” stage of the off-season. Next people will be changing their entire evaluation because of these guys favorite cereal brand. The draft order is: Williams, Maye, Daniels. We could take Daniels, but I don’t think so. I think we’ve moved Howell because of the awkwardness of Howell’s best friend taking his job… (and he was cooked here anyways… that’s important).

Uh, why?

To be fair if I had to pay these guys I’d be out on anything over $20…

I’m in for the Chargers.

I for one am glad we didn’t actually sign that guy Fowler reported we did incorrectly. We’d have a very distracted locker room with him in there constantly threatening our others players’ teeth. Good luck in SF

Hoping we can arrange something with Minnesota to bring Darnolds here. After we ripped out my heart with Scoots being let go, I figured we should at least make sure SIPs gets to live his dream with Darnolds.

He doesn't know what we've earned! HOW DARE HE! Wait... He's defending our fanbase. Nevermind. Carry on, Al. Knee jerk reaction.

This is brilliant.

This is a classic case of film and testing not matching. At all.

Oh it does. Snyder’s yacht is probably more Atlantic than Pacific. The bad man can’t hurt him anymore.

All joking aside about Howell… it was pretty clear where I was on him at the end of the season: I think he still has a good career but he was cooked here regardless of regime change and needed new scenery if he had any chance to flip it around. Not a fun story that he was Snydervera’d, but him moving on, to literally the opposite coast, is the best thing for him.

**** that Howell guy! You’re either with us or against us! BENEDICT ARNOLD!!! *sulks away and curls up in a ball*

But we're already "ES".

Dan Quinns and Adam Peterss are doing greats.

This was not the Pittman I was looking for. But I like it anyways.

Pro scouts create a lexicon of virtually every player in the league and update it in regular intervals. When unexpected players are released, or in emergency situations the front office will use that lexicon to make decisions on who to bring in. In the main NFL free agency period that lexicon may be utilized, however there is a lot of thought and planning that goes in to this period and the coaches, scouts and front office all work together ahead of these periods. And this being year one it means the team likely leaned more into what the coaches and FO are familiar with. The work the scouts do also helps with game planning. They use the bios they created to help create scouting reports.

No. We don’t remove “s”, we only add. Get with the program KillBill26s

To be accurate, he was named all-pro in 2022 which means he was a reigning all-pro in ‘23. So, we had an all pro last year.
