This - trade down is the only answer. Unless they are taking a qb and trading Fields for a haul but any which way they need to accumulate assets.

JSN is who I go with if they go wideout.

Yeah - count me out. I’ll take multiple picks.

This was one of the worse performances I have ever seen the Bears play. Pathetic.

At this point - I am doing extensive scouting on the top qbs. Hire Sean Payton and let him figure this out. Semi serious. Haha.

This was an absolute shit performance. Shows you how far he has to still come. I don’t want to here any excuse about oline or wideouts or anything else - he needs to get the ball out on time more and actually play within the offense. He will not succeed just running around, no matter how elite he is as an athlete. He just won’t survive and the bears won’t be good enough. This is two straight weeks of poor(er) play out of him. Today was some of the worse qb play I have ever seen. And the browns game is still bottom 3 ever. They need to force him to get rid of the ball fast and actually throw guys open.

I would be exstatic if they did but Seattle doesn’t seem like a franchise that will pay that type of price to move up for a qb. I hope I am wrong. The colts or Falcons - I see either franchise willing to do that.

I meant trading for him - seems like Cards will blow it up. Maybe use some capital from some trade towns on wideout

Seattle likes its qb. So whil on paper it looks great, Pete isn’t trading up.

That was why the Bears paid for Claypool. Poles saw the cards and realized he had to act now or he had no options. Deandre Hopkins is probably best option if they go FA route. Or someone buys low on Michael Thomas?

Juju and Claypool got along real well. I think Claypool said Juju was best leader he was around or something like that. Juju isn’t great but I could see a world you have 3 good wideouts and maybe another TE option but that gets expensive. I feel they will draft a wideout.

Houston needs to win one more. We will get the tiebreaker because of there tie if they have 3 wins and we have 3 wins.

The thing is being #1 and knowing Houston goes qb at 2 means anyone who wants there choice at qb needs to jump Houston. This isn’t as of now a super deep qb draft so getting top pick is huge. Heck - Houston may give up a high pick just to move up and ensure they get their qb.

Amazing

Yes on either.

I think he is still an accurate kicker - the problem is he is not a weapon. He doesn't have the ability to hit the 50+ yarder's that can be a game changer in the final 2 minutes etc. Given where the Bears are - I think it is time to start to try to find a weapon, even if it takes 2 attempts. Santos is a very accurate field goal kicker though and in my mind probably as a whole middle of the pack NFL kicker (somewhere between 15-20). But he is not special - given his lack of a big leg. That said - I read where after he missed the last extra point he moved his placement to try something different. Cause his issue really has been almost entirely on extra points. 90% accuracy from field goal is really good - despite the less than strong leg.

I expect they will sign at least one big money dlinemen, maybe two plus a high pick (for example if they don’t trade down I expect they go with one of the linemen).

It was 10 snaps split over multiple drives. I hope he looked good - but the sample size is super small. Lets see how he does over a few games and than can start to assess how it looks like he is doing / what the technique looks like vs. his rookie season.

Hargraves isn't bad either - he's older, but still very good and therefor you may be able to get him on a bit less crazy of a contract. That said - I got to imagine Eagles make a play to keep him, especially given how good they are. Payne seems like a good bet to be on the market and he is going to get massively outpaid - but he still is a really good player at a major position of need.

Is Harry under his rookie deal next year too or is he a free agent at the end of the season?

The outcome was good - fields had his best passing game - despite 2 picks, but they lost. Now let’s hope Rams can somehow pull one out.

This makes sense to me and I still think - with everything you know - you want Fields to play 4 weeks - giving him 2 more weeks of game rest is probably best opportunity to get to that point.

Yeah - this is a must lose for the long-term. I mean if Fields played and went off and they won 40-36, I'll live with it. I'll live with any win where Fields is playing and the offense goes ham. What I don't want is a 13-10 win with Semien playing QB or a banged up Fields winning a game 13-10 . Its a vaccuum analysis, but getting a top few pick would be massive in accelerating the rebuild (as long as it isn't because Fields looks awful the rest of the year and/or Fields is obliterated and has long-term health issues).

Those are tough cause depending on the severity - it can be a career threatening injury I believe.
