I get what Orlovsky is saying, but I had to chuckle at him saying Justin Fields' agent "wouldn't allow that". You're under contract with the Chicago Bears, if you want to get paid you'll do what they want. Now, if he means that his agent will make him hold out and not get paid, that's a d...

Interesting perspective from Orlovsky. Fields' representation likely wouldn't tolerate JF1 being in a lame duck situation. https://x.com/danorlovsky7/status/1768618957701861391?s=20 I get what Orlovsky is saying, but I had to chuckle at him saying Justin Fields' agent "wouldn't allow that"...

Odd. Allbright things the Comms will take Daniels at two. https://x.com/AllbrightNFL/status/1768662008205852899?s=20 Brugler is keeping an open mind. https://x.com/dpbrugler/status/1768640294067585264?s=20 I think the Maye-to-the-Vikings thing is mostly driven by the Fact that Josh McCown is the Vi...

Yeah this move, to me, portends their desire for a top 3 or 4 pick -- QB.

Williams
Daniels/Maye
Maye/Daniels
MHJ (trade?)
WR (trade?)
QB (trade?)

In this situation, the Vikings trade picks 11+23+R12025 to the Patriots for pick 3. The Patriots then trade picks 11+34+180 to the Bears for 9 and Justin Fields. I would love this for us, not love it since that means the Vikings would get Daniels or Maye. Regardless, I'm not sure I see it happening...

Dallas Turner is a guy I would also take at #9, but I'll be surprised if he gets by Atlanta. Jerad Verse is really the only other edge guy that looks like a fit to me in the first round. I'm lukewarm on him as a 4-3 DE. Byron Murphy would be the other option at DT. I'm not crazy high on Chop Robins...

I'm still a little confused about trading a 4th round pick for a soon-to-be 32 year old WR who is due $23.1M this season. There has to be some sort of catch I would think, unless we figured burning the cap space in 2024 to acquire a talented vet like him was worth it. More and more I think we draft ...

Made me think of this song

This is a win now move, and with this move, I think that Justin is staying. Not saying he's not going to pick Caleb. He very well might. But Justin should be on our roster next year. He gives us the best chance to win now. I would say that this move is "doing right by Justin Fields." IMHO...

Well now this is just fucking funny



And it's under three hours!

Not interested

This is a great move especially if they can extend him a year or two. He's not his young self but dude catches EVERYTHING, which will help a young QB. Love the move, fuck a 4th round pick, get the QB the best weapons. 1200 yards and he only played in 13 games. Give me 15 and lets go! This also impr...

Unless an extension is forthcoming, something doesn't make sense.

A small extension is coming.

Paging @Bears Whiskey Nut !

Yes, but I bet Poles trades down from 9 and still drafts a WR. This absolutely opens up a trade down from 9. Poles may turn the 9th pick into a big pile of 4th-6th rounders. Scouts are saying it's not a very deep draft, I'm not sure Poles passes on someone like Dallas Turner or a bevy of talented O...

Jaylon Johnson called him one of best route runners in the NFL

Whaaaatttt!!!

Parsing through the previous few pages of this thread... I think he's talking to you, @dplank

Two quality TEs and a pass-catching RB combined with a solidified OL and a (presumed) high pick at WR. Reads like a really good training wheels setup for a rookie QB. https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExZTFiaDVsdnJlcGpjcWdydmd2d2cwOWVzbDFubDV4NWd1ZW13enI0aiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnl...

I mean... who the fuck is left?

co-signed They can cut him next year with very little dead money. He's dead man walking right now. Poles needs to draft a G and make Davis compete for his position. For all 3 of you not just BWN. Why the Nate Davis hate? He got hurt and had a death in the family. People handle death differently. Se...

Seems like we want to have decent depth this go-round. I can dig it... Jenkins hasn't been able to stay healthy and I still (wrongfully, I admit) hate Nate Davis.

If this kid is a hit and we draft Dallas Turner at #9...

Turner/Billings/Dexter/Sweat


Jesus fuck, have fun with that!

Where's his chest though? HIT THE BENCH PRESS SON

On Swift's blocking, I don't trust PFF. Like at all. So I went to back to look at Swift's mistakes in blocking. I couldn't find any. Not one. You know why? Because I couldn't find a single instance of him blocking at all. He either carried out a RPO as a fake or he went out into pattern. I couldn't...

True but he doesn't look like this!

What moves the needle for me would be his athleticism (speed, quickness, shiftiness) and versatility out of the backfield. Herbert is a notch below in those areas. For example, I don't ever see flexing Herbert into the slot and utilizing him as a viable receiving threat. With D'Andre Swift, I do. 1...
