    I'd never wish injury on any player but in the end I'd rather the Bears simply hurt Rodgers and knocked him out of the game. or season. In my statements above I was referencing a Bears team without Fields at QB, with Fields at QB it wouldn't be so hilarious if the Bears win. They would have won because of something Fields did. My dream scenario - Justin Fields, with a shell of a defense, leads the Bears to a last minute one point win thereby, marking an end to the Packers and Rodgers dominance of the Bears. That is, in a few years we'll all point back to day Fields and Bears pulled off a miraculous win as the starting point of the Bears dominating the NFC North and the Packers. I understand, just adding my sentiment

    If that happens, Pace better call Carolina and see how bad they want a QB. Or another team who wants to jump ahead of Lions/Seahawks. They’re more likely to give you a haul. sure, it would be nice to get (2) 1st round picks this year in a trade, but the Bears could always trade for (1) this yer and future 1sts too

    Wrong thread

    i dont like your sense of humor

    I guess it depends on where the Bears end up. If it is #2, and there is a big demand then sure, take all the 1sts you can get. But I feel like that needs to happen in conjunction with a good FA period, ie picking up maybe Jenkins (OT) and Payne as well as some other useful pieces, especially on O. I'm of the opinion that nothing in the draft should impact how they attack FA. They need to sign at least 6 Big-ish FA deals. At least 2 on each line and then another 2 at various spots. Then fill in with depth after that. Even after all of that, they'll have opportunities to upgrade at multiple spots at the draft. There wont be a position where I think you can say "there's not room" for a top flight prospect. But they'll be covered "enough" at every spot to be trying for WC/division in 2023 if they hit on those FA. well, I think we agree. the FA period needs to be an active and team changing one because of how empty the team is of talent. lets hope Poles can do that

    welp, like I said, never again on both of those. those were for RB's! I mean, I'd be stunned to get a haul like that and obviously it would be a fun get, but it still takes smart drafting afterwards to make it work. In the aftermath Dallas was smart, I'm not sure Washington was

    ok fine how about 1999 1st round pick (12th overall) 1999 3rd round pick 1999 4th round pick 1999 5th round pick 1999 6th round pick 1999 7th round pick 2000 1st round pick 2000 3rd round pick is that the ryan leaf trade haul?

    Definitely number 2. We need help everywhere and the ability to have a top 3 pick when we don't need a QB in a year with high profile top of the draft QBs is an absolute blessing we have to take advantage of. Would be fantastic to get an elite stud like Anderson but seems more valuable to be in a situation where you get an extra mid round pick this year and then get 2 first round picks each of the next 2 years. I dont know if I could see Lovie passing on Anderson and if the Texans did take him #1, I would be all in on #2. You could still get a quality OT or DT at 12-20. But, if Anderson is there, I dont see how you dont take him.
  12. minnesotacubsfan
    i dont think that trade will ever happen again
  13. minnesotacubsfan
    I don't think the end is written RE: Claypool. New city, new offense, he's still young As for trade down partners, Seattle also makes sense
  14. minnesotacubsfan
    Luckily some of the bad teams won today so 1 win won't kill them. Hoping the Raiders beat the Seahawks. youre wish is the Raiders command
  15. minnesotacubsfan
    they also have 2 super bowl wins in the last 23 years
  16. minnesotacubsfan
    Considering Soldier Field torched players for years, probably nothing
  17. minnesotacubsfan
    The one thing Fields sucks at
  18. minnesotacubsfan
    Has the NFL gotten to the point where winning consistently with over 50 points is a reasonable quest? I agree with UK, if I am top 5 and I don't get a reasonable trade offer, I'm looking at Anderson (maybe carter although I'd prefer a DT or 2 in FA), or the top OL. DT you could sit on until late in the 2nd, but a top edge would be way too hard for me to pass on

    No horsefeathering horsefeathers I love Fields commitment and drive, but take a rest buddy. We need you in one piece
  20. minnesotacubsfan
    Aaron Rodgers. That's exactly who I had in mind while posting. Russell Wilson
  21. minnesotacubsfan
    Does not appear it would have been behind Mooney, appears it would have hit him closer to in stride than anything, too bad, may have gone for some major yardage. Yea, that would have been a nice pass to Mooney
  22. minnesotacubsfan
    He might be dead for all we know
  23. minnesotacubsfan
    To be fair, it would have been a bad throw to Mooney as well. He was crossing and looks like it would have been behind him. Just saw the endzone angle and pretty clear Fields was throwing to Mooney, it was accurate, and Montgomery moved into the throwing lane (and jumped) as Fields is releasing the ball. Could you post a link of it? I'd like to see that play the way you are describing it
  24. minnesotacubsfan
    Anderson and Payne (FA) would be amazing. yea, thats exactly what I was thinking. Plus it would make Siaki Ika a nice DT addition to the Wats/Payne rotation. 6-5, 358 lbs would be one hell of a plug in the middle of the D line
  25. minnesotacubsfan
    the thing thats pretty interesting about yours is the number of players take in the first 66 picks. That would be a team building draft. I just think if you can get Anderson or Carter and get a 2nd 1st round, it would make the D so much better
