Not a particularly great take
Yeah, the weird concept of punishing Williams after taking him seems strange.

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

With the way Poles is building out this roster now and the picks we have I would shit myself if we got Josh Sweat. Fuck it. Make the trade. See if they’ll take third year’s third or next year’s. IDK if they’d trade for Fields. Why would they? Nah. Let's keep JF1 and get a "win now" train ...

Re: Bears trade 4th rd pick to Chargers for WR Keenan Allen

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...

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

If Justin is the QB, from what you have all been saying Allen, Swift and the TE should all be absolutely perfect for him. They seem to be good to great in the middle of the field which as has been discussed is one of Justin's weaknesses. I’m starting to get giddy and the draft hasn’t even happened ...

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

As the dust has settled, I see it coming to 2 options. A trade to Philly for Josh Sweat or keeping Fields to pair with CW until a QB1 goes down on another team. Pretty much our options at this point. Don't see any others out there. Why give him away? With the way Poles is building out this roster n...

Re: Bears trade 4th rd pick to Chargers for WR Keenan Allen

Over his career, I think I've had K. Allen on my fantasy football team more than half of that time. He always seems like a guy that you think is going to drop off and he just keeps producing. The guy is a rock of steady productivity. Probably why I loved Hines Ward on my team too. I wish we got him...

Re: Bears trade 4th rd pick to Chargers for WR Keenan Allen

The trade makes sense. There’s no guarantee of getting a WR at 9 and we could not go into the season with Scott and Velus as WR 2 and 3. There was probably a bit of desperation here, but we got a great one at a low price. I’m happy. This all but telegraphs DE / DT now at 9 given that we didn’t do a...

Re: Bears trade 4th rd pick to Chargers for WR Keenan Allen

I'm coming around on the trade. I think my mindset was a WR1 that needed to play 17 games and be the primary go to. But that's not the case. He's going to be a GREAT WR 2 or 3. As someone said, if we can get 15 games and 1000 yards out of him, that will make the trade worth it. And he's one of the ...
