Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?

Much higher on Legette than Corley. I don't think Fiske drops that far though as I don't see him lasting until day 3.

Front office said Cutler should be good regardless. So we didn’t give any protection or weapons. Reason QB fails is Bears DNA. Think we might finally break that lack of foresight.

Re: Justin Fields traded to Pittsburgh for conditional pick

So we traded Fields for a pick that come week 6 we'll use on a back up OL or kick returner. This is barely above the minimum we could have traded him for. I am all for Caleb but this is bad return.

Dear god if Feeney is back it means we really screwed up fixing Center again by virtually ignoring it. I'd bring back Mustipher any day over Feeney.

Re: 6 names to add this offseason

Not just that Ark, trading Fields requires the new QB to not just pan out, but to be elite. Elite play is the only way one can justify passing on a historic trade down haul. And the odds are just very much against that happening. Could it happen? Yes, it could, but historically speaking it's unlike...

Knowing now that Getsy is gone, our new OC needs to be someone who has shown they can mentor a QB, and actually knows how to call plays. Guess its time to start making our wish list. The new OC must have prior experience calling plays, no more first timers Which likely means retread which on the br...

I've heard that floated out there by others. It seems a bit risky, but to me it looks like you target McCarthy or Pennix at 9 after getting your boatload of assets after moving down.
