Bears trade up to no. 11

I knew Pace would move up for a QB but at least the Bears got a really good QB prospect and didn’t entirely mortgage the future to do so. 
 

The Bears acquired the No. 11 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft from the New York Giants in exchange for the No. 20 pick, a fifth-round pick (No. 164) and 2022 first-round and fourth-round selections. Chicagoused the 11th pick to draft Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields

Plus - He is the opposite of Mitch in the sense that Burrow's transferred out of OSU because he knew he couldn't beat out Fields as QB1.  I will also point out Fields transferred from Georgia because Georgia had Fromm and didn't want to pivot (and eventually regretted it).  He feels like Watson - where people saw him excel for so long - that they over thought it. 

He is big, extremely fast/athletic, and throws an accurate ball.  Yes - there are questions about how quick he processed the field etc at times - but lets be honest - some guys will develop, some won't - but he has a TON of skills and has beat some really really talented teams and played awesome against some real good defenses.
