  1. I really do not give a hoot what "the league" says or does. They have gotten it wrong before. Fields is simply not bad as he is being made out to be. It was absurd to believe that Fields would produce on a high level based upon what he had around him. His receiving corp. alone was suspect. Byron Pringle? N'Keal Harry? Velus Jones? Really? Come on now. And on top of that they had two head coaching changes I believe and a GM change, all in the span of 3 years. That is a **** show. When a team has issues, rather than looking at all the parts and assessing them individually, typically the new HC and GM just want their own QB. Finally, last year when they got him DJ Moore and he was healthy there was improvement in Fields game. Why was DJ Moore politicking for him? Because he knows the talent is there. In this FA alone they acquired Keenan Allen, Cole Kmet and running back D'Andre Swift and TE Gerald Everett and decided to send him packing.
  2. Okay so we both watched him a ton. I know what I saw, just like you, and what struck me, in particular, was the fact that his receivers, with the exception of DJ Moore, could not get open. And here they are in FA loading up skill- players like Allen. And like I said, I have no idea what they are going to do, but I do not know he is not as bad as you are making him out to be.
  3. How much did you watch the Bears personally last year? I do not know what the Bears are doing. I sure don't. But if you look at their roster and what they have done in this FA, they should have done that for Fields. That is my main point.
  4. I think Justin Field's is undervalued. First of all, I was stuck watching a lot of Bears football last year because a relative who is a die-hard fan, moved nearby. He has a great setup, so I got to watch number of games. So, what I noticed about Fields, with the exception of DJ Moore, last year, his receiving corp. was puny. It had no depth or quality to it. He really forced things in the first half of the season. Now here in FA in the last 72 hours the Bears have picked up more receivers to bolster their offense than ever. Fields is very talented but as DJ Moore pointed out, he needs more weapons to be successful. Moore did not have to support him but maybe he sees what some of us do. Fields is dynamic. What I noticed is he is very talented but had so little around him, and with a few adjustments to what they did have last year he had a solid 2nd half of the season, and Moore helped tremendously. And so now maybe they could be stocking up the cupboard for Williams, but they would be smarter imo with a QB needy team, and stock their roster even more and roll with Fields. And I think they would be super competitive this year.
  5. Let me say this about the Bears. I think they did more over the last 72 hours to address their puny offense at the receiver position than ever before in this FA. IMO Fields is underappreciated. Personally, and I know I am in the minority, the Bears should keep Fields, trade down and build their roster. DJ Moore coming out a couple of months ago and saying Fields is the one to keep, he just needs more weapons, is being proven right now in FA. I had to watch Justin Fields a lot last year visiting a family member who moved into the area who is a diehard Bears fan. If you are just looking at stats or him trying to make something happen because of a limited offense last year, again Moore was the only true reliable, well I have to say he is undervalued.
  6. For years I wondered when are they going to get some linebackers that are decent. And I think of Ron Rivera. The guy was here for 4 years, is a former LB himself, and he did nothing to address the position. And Peters addresses it in what 48 hours? Bobby Wagner will be 34 when the season starts but guess what? Even at the tail end of his career he is a 100% improvement to any player we have had at LB. And he is a leader. I am so excited for this season.
  7. I was thinking the same thing especially the trade for Matt Ryan, I mean Kirk Cousin's. Decent regular season QB's. I don't get the move by the Eagles for Barkley either. Decent RB's in this draft class.
  8. Maybe it has been said already but I like the phrase "slow and steady wins the race." This franchise when Snyder first acquired it was always paying big bucks, making silly splashes thinking they could literally buy championships with retreads. We have so much more going for us now. We are so lucky Snyder sold. For years so many on here pointed out that we really did not have a decent evaluator of talent. So now we have a legit GM. We have some really good money for a few decent FA acquisitions. And I love our draft capital. As much as I know we cannot guarantee that any of these guys will be "THE ONE" I have really spent some time watching all of these guys and I would be happy as can be if we try with Daniels or Maye. And try is the operable words. And maybe we do what Shanny did when he was here and pick up another QB in the latter rounds, if they see the potential.
  9. Noah Fant would be a good addition. He is 26, and although he did not really catch on in Denver, he brings decent enough upside. While he may not bring the receptions/yards, he is a solid blocker, and we could use that in the run game, and for additional help on the O line. It boils down to how he is used. He is a decent receiver, just not targeted in Denver's offense and rarely for Seattle.
  10. He has every dollar he could possibly need for generations. Come on now. What is left after you have all the money and you're a starting QB in the NFL? Winning the SB.
  11. How about we just start by not being the laughingstock of the league. I want guys that play hard. That know how to tackle. That know how to cover. Is that too much to ask? I can deal 100% with a team that plays their "guts out" to quote Joe Gibbs and comes up short. I cannot and will not have any patience for lackluster, missed assignments, ****ty tackling and all the other stuff we have been accustomed to over the years. That is what I want from Quinn for starters. A guy who gets the best out of his players. Yeah of course we all want to win the division, and compete at a high level in the playoffs but we need to turn the page on the ****ty regular season play, and the rest will happen.
  12. I mean you would think at this juncture of his career Cousin's would be saying to McCarthy his agent, shop me with a team that can make a run, and give him a short list. But not Kirk. He likes to be paid. And he has enough money now for generational wealth.
  13. Cousins has proven he is a good QB, BUT imo it has to be a team that has the pieces to make a playoff run. If that is the case, I would definitely pick him up if he were available.
  14. He will never go #1. They are just filling space and time here in the offseason, Orlovsky, Riddick, etc. I liked him a lot originally. The story about him, how he put muscle on, focused more on strength and conditioning and protecting himself, etc. shows a lot of grit and willing to do what is needed to be as successful as one can be with their skillset. Just looking closer and realizing the rigors of an NFL season, his age, his lack of arm strength, etc. I just do not see us taking him. I think we wind up with Maye. Multiple QB's historically have found themselves on very poor teams and have turned them around over a couple of seasons, when reasonable talent is added. Again, IMO you can't possibly concern yourself as a QB prospect about the "situation" your drafted into. I mean that is part of the challenge being an NFL QB if you go #1, or #2, or #3, off the board. You are going to a team that has significant issues.
