February 20, 201313 yr comment_116209 Would you trade our 2013 first round pick for a 2014 first round and a 2013 third round pick? Lets say Kansas City drafts the OLT Joeckel with the first pick, and then wants to be sure they get QB Matt Barkley also. They give up the 2014 first round selection along with the 63 pick in RD3. It would hurt us this season, but next year we will be loaded to get a premier player or two, and we also get the top pick in RD3. 2014 prospects?? DE- Jadeveon Clowney SC OLT - Taylor Lewan Mich OLT - Jake Matthews Texas AM OLT - Cyrus Kouandjo AL OLT - David Yankey Stan It's definately a thought to consider, especially if we think the make or break player that would get us to the superbowl is a Jonathon Cooper G. Here's how the draft could play out RD2-50 Dallas Thomas G Ten RD3-63 Travis Frederick G/C Wis RD4-113 Kevin Reddick LB NC RD5-145 Josh Boyce WR TCU RD6-180 Chris Gragg TE Ark Report

That wouldn't play out well Report
February 20, 201313 yr comment_116212 It's a thought, but idk man. I'd rather just trade down and get enough top end talent this year, I really think we can win a title. A 6th round TE would make me a sad panda if we can't grab one in FA. I also think if the Chiefs can hit on a QB they won't be THAT bad. Report

True, I keep wishing we could land an OLT in the draft and don't see it unless for some reason Lane Johnson falls.Next year, there will be a few and that's how I thought of this. Report
February 20, 201313 yr comment_116214 I would do it for their 2nd and 4th and the 1st the following. But, they wouldn't be dumb enough. Report
February 20, 201313 yr comment_116217 Simple answer: no. It's rarely worth it unless we get a Herschel Walker or Ricky Williams deal. Report
February 20, 201313 yr comment_116220 I was gonna say the same thing.. It would take their 2nd and next years Report
February 20, 201313 yr comment_116221 I would do it for their 2nd and 4th and the 1st the following. But, they wouldn't be dumb enough. there not going to do that, they needs lots of help and wont give up so many picks. maybe a 2 4 and a 6 this year would be a lot. Report
February 21, 201313 yr comment_116229 KC is too close. I'd do it with Jax in a heartbeat with this years third. Report
February 21, 201313 yr comment_116241 Don't like the deal. We have a playoff ready D and we have a lot of playoff ready players on the offense. We need to try to get it all right in this offseason and make a run at the Superbowl. Dropping back especially with so little in return this year makes no sense to me. If our team were more playoff caliber ala NE which sometimes makes deals like this then maybe. We need a big hit at either Oline, TE, or LB in Rd 1 of this draft. I'd consider the idea of dropping back into early second Rd and adding a 3rd and a day 3 pick but depends on what we do with FA. Report
February 21, 201313 yr comment_116253 Worth noting; not having a first round pick would probably save the Bears a couple million in cap space this year. Report
