ASHKUM BEAR

I really do not want them to spend any draft capital, so that eliminates a handful of potential options. We bet on Foles, so I think he is option #1. Option #2, I would like to see them get a FA vet to compete with Foles. Not sure what he has left, but RG3 has experience in a Nagy style offense. Besides his mobility, he was also noted to have arm strength and accuracy. Can a QB guru get him on the right track and revive his game? It would be interesting and shouldn't cost a fortune. Option #3- draft the QB who has the traits but needs work (3rd-5th rd prospect). Jamie Newman, Tanner Morgan, Desmond Ridder, or Kellen Mond. Use the draft to strengthen the oline, find a #1 wr, and a couple defensive pieces. Come back 2022 and draft QB again. Get two young guns who can push each other until we have a good one.

It was a theory. But hey, we are 84 days, 3 hours, and 24 seconds until draft day. After the big game hopefully we can get some targets established for the beloved.

Knowing what we know know, yes. Looking back before the draft, Mahomes was just as much an unknown as Mitch. I may have said Mahomes comes from a professional athlete home, so he would know some ins and out to adjusting to pro life. That was one thing I liked about Mahomes. Mitch it was accuracy.

Pace is a genius. He knew Watson would pull something like this all along. ?

The Bears have shown interest in Michael Carter too with an official visit at the Senior Bowl. Also SB visits: Mac Jones QB, Tylan Wallace WR , Dillon Radunz OLT, Robert Jones OL

As for the owners selecting, this is mainly the first round bc after it gets too cloudy. The gm tells them this is 3 or 4 players that we think, then they make the pick. I'm sure this would have leaked, but it sure feels like some of the same moves over and over from GM to GM. I also say they are involved because they also lean towards "safe" players which they may have implemented after the tank johnson fiasco.

The farmers hand

I think he would be a decent pick in the 6th rd if he's available. Montgomery, Carter and Cohen would give the position speed and duel threat run/catch. If he can add about 10# he'd be similiar to GBs Aaron Jones.

Michael Carter by chance? NC has 2 decent draftees and Carter is a late RD selection I think fits.

Wow. This tells you right here that you need to draft a QB every year even if you get one right. Become the factory and trade them for multiple firsts. Gives Detroit some tools to rebuild. Unfortunately they will waste one on a RB.

Then trade for Watson and now we are 25-30 million in the hole. The Bears are not players in any of this. Couple cuts and sign a few vet minimums will be the highlights as we are rolling down the hill

12+ million, not a chance they move that. Next year they have to trade him or ride his contract out.

How far back does this go? Angelo, Emery, and now Pace. Is it the GM or is there a master behind the curtains pulling the strings? Is Virginia making these picks? The Bears might as well go the Raiders way and hire Mel Kiper. Since I do not think Pace or Nagy survive and are gone after next year, they should be forced to follow a safe draft script. RD1) LT RD2) RT RD3) WR RD4) QB

As much as I would love to have a QB like that, how do you justify trading those assets for that salary. We are already in the cap hot basement. The Bears have to stop borrowing against the future and figure it out and get ahead. If they stopped being "cute" it is easy. How many smartest guys going against averages do we have to go through.

I liked what I read on Tanner Morgan from Minnesota. Would like to learn more on him, he could be a nice mid draft pick with some potential.

Was Eddie ever really great or lucky one year?

Pass. The Bears need to draft QBs until they get it right. You do not trade, there is a reason they want to part with him.

To be honest, I would rather build the foundation now like this and get the first round QB next year.

I seen the Ragone move last night. I wonder if Mitch will follow him and learn under Matt Ryan?

My thought was the Bears lose Arob, Hicks, and Massie and have to invest high. Chances are Leno comes back because they cannot start the season with an unknown prospect protecting the blindside so Eichenberg will replace Massie RT for a year. Foles will start at QB until Trask has a grasp, maybe all year too.

Worth a look. No one is a natural winner. You fail over and over again until you get it right and if he wants to get it right, he makes improvements.

I thought it was always after because they add and subtract the moves. Like when they cut RB Davis last year and gained a pick back.

Mac Jones QB goes 1 pick before Bears every time... so Trask it is with a trade down. The trade nets a big WR and we take another Irish lineman. 3rd is a big DE/DT to help fill in rotation. NW LB to compete for ILB, playmaking slot WR/KR, a box SS with smarts, aggressive RB with burst. CB w size and another RT prospect. Round 1 Pick 27 (T.B.): Kyle Trask, QB, Florida (A-) Round 2 Pick 20: Liam Eichenberg, OT, Notre Dame (A) Round 2 Pick 27 (T.B.): Tamorrion Terry, WR, Florida State (A) Round 3 Pick 19: Tedarrell Slaton, DT, Florida (A+) Round 5 Pick 20: Blake Gallagher, ILB, Northwestern (A+) Round 6 Pick 20: Kadarius Toney, WR, Florida (A+) Round 6 Pick 34 (COMP): Greg Eisworth, SS, Iowa State (A+) Round 6 Pick 38 (COMP): Obi Eboh, CB, UCLA (A+) Round 6 Pick 40 (COMP): Master Teague, RB, Ohio State (A-) Round 7 Pick 4: Drew Himmelman, OT, Illinois State (A

I would think the nfl will announce some type of leanancy to keep the league from a massive dump of contracts. It may be wishful thinking, but the majority are going to be in trouble. The Bears next season will be a mess anyways, so maybe it can be a blessing to push the reset button. I hate the thought of losing Hicks and opening a huge hole, maybe the glue of the D.
