    Bears are 8 point dogs. They stinks. But Detroit is Detroit. Detroit is winning this division by default thanks to a 4 game win streak bringing them to 8-4 and a very blah +- of +24 points. Detroit isn't actually good, but they are good at home. The Bears actually managed to beat Detroit at home, which has been rare in recent years. They beat San Fran last week but really haven't damaged their draft position yet, as the 49ers are garbage and were probably destined to pick ahead of the Bears anyway. Detroit can't just skate into the division, and the Bears can't just skate into a top pick. Detroit should win, and my guess is they do so by less than 8. However, a Bears win here would not surprise me.

    [tweet] [/tweet] fangio upset with the story about him leaving. Says it's not true

    From a KC perspective I'd think best case scenario is they are looking at an Aramis Ramirez situation, when the Cubs traded for him from Pittsburgh after an injury plagued age 24 season. The difference is Aramis had already had a breakout year that Soler has not come close to matching. Jorge is a little more patient and strikes out much more. I'm not sold on Jorge taking the next step. If he does, I can live with him playing in KC (and then eventually the Yankees).

    I think the physical examination talk may actually be doctor's reviewing each other's reports on the player, rather than putting the player through an actual hands on physical. or not

    I think the average fan sees the closer as the 4th or 5th most important position on the team with a good one very hard to find. So, it stands to reason that they'd also view a closer traded for a 5th OF as a bad deal. From outside Cubs fan perspective, Jorge Soler is about to turn 25, has been in the league for 3 years and has hit a serious plateau of "not very impressive". He looks good and does awesome things from time to time, but you have to expect huge improvement to be happy with him.

    You talking today or after the season? I see no reason to offer an extension today, unless there's a steep discount. I would definitely want to see an offer made later, as long as this season goes well. I wouldn't be happy if they went into this expecting it to be one and only one with no consideration for an extension.

    So is Davis eligible to bring back a draft pick if he signs elsewhere? I wouldn't rule out them bringing him back if this year goes well.

    The thread title poses it differently, yes, but the poll's title asks it the way the options are presented the poll's title doesn't really ask anything fix this

    Franchise value isn't directly correlated to actual current revenues. Sure but I doubt they are hurting on revenues & dont even have an insane payroll either. Not hurting doesn't mean happy to spend $80 million on a closer.

    He's like schwarber without the ability to hit or slight chance of playing catcher on occasion.

    I would be upset if they dealt somebody valuable.

    agreed forced QB selections that have no business going that high on their own merit is how you turn into the Cleveland Browns. Spend your high picks on elite players. Find a decent QB to play with that team of elite players.

    To protect the rookie? He thinks the line is terrible and the rest of the offense (especially if and when Alshon leaves) IS terrible and I think he doesn't want to ruin the rookie with that. Yes, I have no interest in drafting a QB top 4 and throwing him out there with this team/coaching staff/offense.

    for the record, I was attempting to convey how enjoyable those little factoids are when put together, especially going back to my long standing stance in favor of the one game playoff. Now I just got to deal with the "payroll disparity" excuses.

    If you're going to go ahead and spend that early 1st on a QB, and you aren't bringing Cutler back. Then why the hell not start the season with Barkley? Maybe Barkley and Hoyer. Well I wouldnt want two vets if they keeping 3 QBs. So it would be Hoyer or Barkley for me. Possible cost considerations aside, I'd still go Hoyer right now. I mean going into training camp, not the season. But I'd want two vets as a buffer to prevent them from putting a rookie out with these teammates.

    He would need to play the next 4 games at a relatively high level for me to say that. If you're going to go ahead and spend that early 1st on a QB, and you aren't bringing Cutler back. Then why the hell not start the season with Barkley? Maybe Barkley and Hoyer.
