Re: CBS SPORTS: Ranking top QBs from 2020-2024 draft classes: Here's how Caleb Williams, C.J. Stroud and others stack up

I know the writer is evaluating rookies based on their college performances and projecting that talent to the pros. But it's like comparing apples to oranges, not valid comparing pros to undrafted rookies. More like comparing apples to howler monkeys. There just isn't a logical way to do this exerc...

Re: Different trade scenario

why this absurd fascination with the WR position? the Bears have DJ Moore & Keenan Allen and whoever is the QB will only have so many throws a game to share the ball with the WR's, TE's and RB's if they want to get WR help in later rounds, fine ... but to use the #9 pick on a WR would be absolut...

Re: I think we Bears fans are traumatized

having 2 top 10 draft picks isn't reason for trauma but rather a cause for enthusiastic anticipation for most, looking forward to what the team can/will do being a long time Bears fan, having 2 top 10 draft picks is a cause for deep rooted cynicism to come to the surface as one ponders how the team ...

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

we're going to have a rookie QB with a lot of talented skill players ... only way that works is if the QB is upright

spend the 9 to bolster the protection either by drafting a top O-Lineman or trading down to maybe get 2 functional additions

Re: Denver cuts Russell Wilson, to eat $85mil in dead cap

Why wouldn't the Raiders sign him to a vet minimum deal? You make the (arch rival) Broncos eat as much of that money as possible, get a cheap QB for a couple of years, and he could be a pretty decent player for them when paired up with Adams, Jacobs, etc. Would Russ be okay with a vet minimum deal ...
