They’re going QB, and it’s likely Williams. you know everyone is so sure about this but anything is possible. the bears do seem to value fields more than the rest of the nfl. we shall see 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s highly reported the Eagles asked before dealing for Pickett…. Remember the Bears only have 5 total picks at this time, they’re trading out of the #1 and getting a boat load for it… put it in the books… unless someone with a way over the top deal for Fields comes along before or during the draft he’s a Bear in 2024….

I really don't know but we will sign a LT vet, I would think. We may wait for another cut to occur too. Slim but possible. One thing we do know is Peters and Co. know what they are doing. I'm happy to ride.   1 minute ago, bwattsup said: He’s repping them because he’s an actual student there for an MBA program.

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Welp, I’ve been banging the drum for Smith, but Dan Quinn certainly has a better idea of where he’s at physically than any of us. Not stressing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskeypeet Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 1 hour ago, Die Hard said: 1-year for up to $20M.  Too rich for me. I’d be out on that. Long respect, but don't understand this at all. If they have any intention of starting a rookie a QB, the plan so far feels like a disaster. I'd do pretty much anything to give short term protection to the rookie instead of working on the defense or anything else. The rookie QB is what matters, that's it and that's all. If there isn't a definitive plan to cure the o-line, this feels like Ron is in control. I don't like it at all. Would have much rather overpaid for a mid talent like Jonah Williams to help, he got a very palatable 2 year deal as it is with Arizona. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So after pick #9, they've got only 2 picks (3-75, 4-122) the rest of the draft. Have to think *at least* one of those first two picks is getting traded for more slots in this talent-rich draft.   Edited March 16 by Dah-Dee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still very early… I’m sure there are other viable options.

Peters has earned some leash…. so I’m prepared to wait until June mini-camps before I freak out 😂 Well, we see it the same way. I don't hate the FO's efforts to improve the team, but I'm skeptical the additions will actually mean anything in the long term and very concerned we haven't staged the rook for success. For what its worth, can't understand why we shouldn't overpay for Smith to protect the rook. The draft capital is there to maybe get some guys, but why risk it? Even if we can get the LT/RT latent in the second, let them sit or play them when Smith gets hurt. Make him an offer he cant refuse, we have the cap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now that he's here, he probably will be taking some classes in person.....LOVE this dude. In a perfect world he will be here passed this season and retires with this organization.

That would cool as hell for the school and student body if he was able to manage some on-campus classes. Could maybe present an opportunity to do some sort of collab between the team and school (just throwing stuff out there). Either way, love he's taking that next step for post-career, especially at a local HBCU. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
