  1. Or if he, you know, clashes with his coach again. both seattle and Denver were very enthusiastic about having Wilson not be their QB while he was seemingly still a good qb. That’s weird.
  2. They horsefeathers sabotaged his second year in the league.
  3. The lack of a return speaks volumes shoulfnt have traded him
  4. D’andre Swift does not belong in this comparison and Cole Kmet is a couple tiers below Kelce. The situation is not really all that comparable other than guys play same positions.
  5. Minnesota trades into the 23rd pick from Houston and do not appear to have given much up to do so
  6. I can’t imagine they’d consider it. Presumably they want to supplement the top guys with some youth, especially since you can’t assume either of these guys will be here in 3 years.
  7. If anybody thinks Justin Fields may be the starting qb next year, he’s in Milan Italy posting tourists pics and hasn’t acknowledged the team acquiring a pro bowl WR.
  8. If he can turn the 1st 4 picks into his starting qb, #2 wr, top DE and another impact receiver/tackle he might be happy with that over the depth picks might provide
  9. I would bet there’s extension talks in the near term, something that keeps him here for a couple years
  10. Redshirting the top pick in the draft is not an option. Having him compete for the starting job with a guy some people like is perfectly fine. But he’s gonna win the job.
  11. Re: the “do right by Justin” comments. I really don’t think that holding onto him is contrary to that statement. It seems obvious that Poles wanted to trade Fields to a team that valued him as a starter. But what is he supposed to do, force a trade to a team that doesn’t value Fields and has other plans at the position? Is that doing right by fields? he wanted to hand Fields a good situation, but there isn’t a good situation to hand him. His best bet is backing up a shaky veteran or starting for a team breaking in a rookie. Well, the team he’s currently on could offer the latter, and most teams under the former scenario would rather pay some average Joe $7m than give up anything more valuable than cash.
  12. Another “played with Waldron” for half a second guy. He might suck, but at least he plays a position of need.
  13. Rypien is a practice squad caliber player. His signing is meaningless.
  14. I’m not particularly enthusiastic about going into a draft with Ryan Poles absolutely needing to nail two top ten picks at positions hes yet to show an ability to draft for things to be going right next season. When Poles NEEDS to address a position, typically he ignores it entirely. I’m not counting my chickens on that #9 pick. Especially not when he’s content giving Waldron guys “familiar with the system” and still seems pleased with his defensive minded head coach.
  15. The problem with that group is that all of it is complementary, and none of them are able to elevate the group on their own. DJ Moore is a fine #1, if you have top end talent elsewhere. Cole Kmet is a fine TE, if you have top end talent elsewhere. Swift is an okay RB, you need to surround with top end talent elsewhere. if every player in the league went into a draft tomorrow, none of the Bears players would be close to selected at the top of their position. It’s all second tier (or lower) guys. That’s fine, if you have an elite QB, but the Bears do not, and probably will not for a couple years. So they have to spread it around to everybody, and to do that you need a hell of a lot more than what they have now.
  16. Will Preller’s blunders never cease?
  17. This is exactly why I am upset with the bears approach to free agency. They’ve had opportunities to improve the team with nothing but money, have plenty of cap space, and have refused to do anything about it for three offseasons in a row. austerity is a plague justified by the ignorant
  18. Spent a fortnight with seattle, last year, practice squad guy at best
  19. If he was squeezing meemaw’s honkers that could still qualify
  20. Gotta assume he’s on pace for 6 points per game
  21. 2/49 seems favorable for a team with a lot of cap space
  22. 2/49 seems favorable for a team with a lot of cap space
