Re: Different trade scenario

After having read all of this and agreeing with all of it ( lmao thats how fucked up this is ) my question is: I know we have 9 picks next year and 2 of them are round 2 I believe. What is the value of a next years pick being traded vs a this year pick being traded? Like if we decided to try and mov...

Re: I think we Bears fans are traumatized

Seems to me we have always gone down the road of shoring up the D. I mean if Caleb is at best pretty good, and he has weapons like DJ, Keenan, Kmet and Sweat and we add Nabers to it? Daaaamn it would be fun to watch. Im sure Nabers doesnt fall to 9 but stranger things have happened. Maybe its time t...

Re: I think we Bears fans are traumatized

Isnt there a possibility of getting your defensive stud cake and eating your wr cake too? Trade back about 5 spots or so. Still get a good D players and grab a good WR in 2nd round. Its a deep WR class. That being said next year is supposed to be good for edge rushers and if Nabers fell to 9....oooo...

Re: Justin Fields Megathread - A story of Lovers and Haters

Here’s my take as of 15/3/24 Fields is staying. Bears are in win now mode Bears will draft a QB It probably won’t be with #1 pick but it might be. I think they trade with Commanders and take their R2 pick. I think they’ll take MHJ with #2 I think they draft a QB either at 9 or trade back to mid tee...

I have been saying to my father all week, " there is no way Poles goes into the draft with only 5 picks and doesnt trade back to get more.

I still find myself drooling over the idea of 2 trade backs with number 1 picks and stockpiling talent.

Re: Some Free Agent ideas, your thoughts?

Rumors that either Mack or Bosa get moved due to cap issues. Probably not a great idea but Id really love seeing Mack in a Bears uni again. Not at a ridiculous price. Dude had 17 sacks last year. I think 6 of them came in one game lol. I still remember his first game against the Packers. oh well
