Some news on Fields.  Appears he was out yesterday nursing a minor ‘groin injury’. He’s returned today. But during a recent practice where he struggled, he refused to leave until he had run through the plays a bit more.  Gotta love his dedication to hard work.

GM101 vs someone sitting on their ass at home bitching, perhaps like me?

As always, this line of rationale is to be taken with a grain of salt as long as the Bears front office continues to be far more hits than misses, and the team continues be mediocre at best. When the team perpetually wins, and perpetually threatens in the playoffs, then we can say, "Hey, nobody with a random opinion could do better than those superstar Bears GMs." Until then, however, it's impossible to say for sure. Hell, picking just exclusively SEC guys would probably be a better strategy than what we've seen over the past decade.

I'm excited about Fields like everyone else, but if they had stayed at 20 and kept the extra picks, who knows what could have been? Since Pace loves trading away picks, however, it's difficult to know what could have been over the years. Picking randomly would have probably produced better teams overall.

Can’t say this is a surprise.  Still very unfortunate.

He had skills, and he certainly got a good look and time to develop, but i guess he just didnt make it to the level he needed to be at.
