I just watch highlight films on five QBs (Fields, Jones, Lance, Mond, & Mills) posted on bearswire.usatoday.com Highlights of QB prospects the Bears could land in 2021 NFL Draft It was nice in that they had all five on one page,. I must admit, although I am leery of Lance, his tape was impressive. This kid is a dual threat. I don't know his 40 time, but he can haul ass. He pulled away from defenders chasing him I was also impressed with his downfield throws.

If the trade was made when the Bears were on the clock, meaning we knew for sure the player we want will be available, AND, that player was one of the top five QBs (Who's last name isn't Lance) I'd be all for it.

I hope SF takes Lance. He is one of the BIG 5 QBs I really do not want to see Pace draft.

Seems to me, from this quote from ChicagoBears.com, that the claim that the Bear Players show a lack of motivation to succeed is completely false.

And No GM is sure that every 1st round pick will pan out. It's an educated crap shoot. While professing total conviction, they know the reality of the draft process. But no GM will admit it to the press. They will hold a news conference praising every selection. If for no other reason, to show support for that 7th rounder, hoping he will at least make the practice squad.

Agreed, Lance scares me. I don't like to take any player, especially QB, who hasn't had extensive playing time at the college level. We seem to have a habit of picking players who have flashed "Blue Chip" talent for one year. The two we picked that I sat in front of my TV begging for us not to select that fit that description was Mitch & Floyd.

I think your spot on, however, on points 6 & 7, I'm sure you could say the same for all 32 GMs. I'll go one step further, if ANY GM didn't have total conviction on all his picks, he should not be a GM.

The Jets received three picks: a sixth-rounder in the in this years draft, and a second-rounder and fourth-rounder in 2022.

Fields has always been my favorite prospect for QB in this years draft. I honestly would not mind giving up two number ones to trade up for him. However, I think SF will grab him. So my wish will go for naught. Maybe a 2nd rd QB option will be available that is good enough to take a flyer on.

Good Grief. I read a few days ago three teams opted out. I think Denver was one of them. Can't remember the other two. Now I read a total of nine teams have decided to opt out. There will be many more. If you don't like Nagy, fine. There are plenty of reasons one might think he should be replaced. However, IMO, this shouldn't be one of those reasons. (Personally, I think he deserves one more chance to right the ship.)

I have to believe the only way Baltimore trades Brown is if they get MAJOR draft picks in return. A 24 yr old pro bowl left tackle is going to require at least one first rounder + ????. Then when the trade is complete, what is it going to cost to sign him to a multi year deal to make sure he remains with us?

I chose to go for Fields. Problem is, I think it will take #20, a 2nd or 3rd this year, and our first next year. Lance has limited starting experience at FCS level. Reminds me of MT.

I can't remember what the 55/48 figures were before the "covid-year" Can you help me out? I'm too lazy to research it. BTW, I'm thrilled they got rid of preseason game and extended the season to 17.

I think this is the first mock draft I've seen posted on NFl.com showing the Bears trading up to 11 to draft QB M. Jones Four Round Mock Draft Just Posted by Chad Reuter on NFL.com

According to an article on Bears.com Burns tore his ACL in August in training camp?

Excellent article! I couldn't agree more with the author. Dalton is certainly good enough to get us to the playoffs, assuming they retool the offense and field a top ten defense. Many want to write off the 2021-22 Bears. I'm waiting to see what else Pace does in FA and the draft before I go that far.

No Way, No How. Just read the article on NFL.com. First round draft pick in 2020. Complete bust. Played 3 offensive snaps. Traded to Miami for virtually nothing. Miami cuts him three weeks later because his attitude still sucks. Could be one of the worse 1st round draft picks EVER. Miami Dolphins release former first-round pick Isaiah Wilson

Bears Awarded Two Picks in 6th round

I'd love Wilson as our QB - HOWEVER - I don't want to see the Bears give up our best players in addition to 2 number 1s for ANY Quarterback. That to me is a step backward. JMHO

I have to believe Arob is worth just as much to a team wanting a #1 WR as Stephan Diggs was when traded to Buffalo. It cost Buffalo their 2020 first-round, fifth-round and sixth-round picks and a 2021 fourth-round pick—Buffalo got a 2020 seventh-rounder in return. I would be unhappy if all we got for him was two 3rds, one this year, one next year. I see all of these teams getting huge dividends when trading blue chip players. We always get crap.

Stinger, I strongly suspect that the Patriots will be the new home for Garoppolo, if San Francisco lets him go. They blew it by signing Cam Newton. Belichick regretted losing Garoppolo and would love to have him return to the Pats.

I'm going to enjoy watching Alabama and Notre Dame tomorrow afternoon. A lot of players on the big stage that will be declaring for the draft this year.

Buffalo released veteran OG Quinton Spain. He excels at protecting the QB (allowed ZERO sacks in 2019) Struggles in run blocking. Being the Offense leans towards the pass, and few OGs are strong in both the run & pass, would it be worth it for the Bears to consider this guy? He's young. A veteran with experience. I say yes. Bills release Quinton Spain seven months after signing veteran OL to extension

I'd prefer to see Pace draft a QB. How many times have the Bears tried to resurrect the career of a QB who lost favor with the team that drafted him? It's rare that it works out for the team looking for help at QB. The Bears have lost their ass every time, including twice giving up two first rounders for a QB that never lived up to our expectations. If Pace picks up another bargain basement QB, he just has another lame excuse to ignore the position in the draft. And while I'm on my soap box, I cannot understand why the Bears seem to fall in love with players in the draft with measurables and potential instead of 3 or 4 years of high level production. Please, no more one year wonders drafted in the first round. Okay, I'm done ranting. I feel much better.

Well, I think it will be Trubisky, bat I'm hoping it will be Foles. I'm tired of them talking about stretching the field with a QB (Tru) who is terrible at going deep. Why would the other team worry about Trubisky going downfield? Just watch the game tapes.
