McCloud and Rome are out for the game. Burden, Gar-Joh, Edwards and Duhshon Wright plus Blackwell are listed as questionable. I could see a problem with NB if Gar-Joh, McCloud and Blackwell don't play.

We are use to always taking about next year because we were losers but this year is different. Our floor is make the playoffs and lose our first game. That will still be a successful season but what if our ceiling is the SB and we actually will have a whole different outlook on future asset and acquisitions. I suspect the conversation will be who can try and bring back . Clearly our DL will still need some upgrades but think it will be with draft picks and not getting rid of players in trades.

Poles shot his load last year for the next two years of Cap space. The OL cost hit a home run but the Jarrett and Dayo money is a bust this year. Jarrett and Dayo don't have outs on their contracts until 27 so they are here next year. Booker is getting better and Turner will be healthy. Sweat isn't a top 10 Edge but is still a double digit sacker. 1/2 sack short this year with 2 games left. Poles is not discarding this group but will add to it in the draft and maybe by FA or trade. I think he will play with money and bring in a FA instead of all the trade proposals on here. I think with Caleb progressing next year we have a highest scoring team in the league potential and will not deal any offensive assets. Just my opinion.

I took off the ignore button because it's been peaceful and thought we could just give our opinions and not have you calling me having a different opinion as being aggressive and ( don't like my tone) but of course you will never change. I responded to a A Bear post and you jump right jump in and say that's false information. In any trade scenario you have dead money to go with cap saving. I just tried to make that point. If you don't want to deal with me stopping taking about me when you post and we can get along just fine. Let's get to the conversation instead of your attempt to argue. I hope we bring in someone to but I don't think Poles is trading away many assets and first round picks for a Garrett or Crosby. I think he redoes contracts and maybe get rid of Edmunds cap number and brings in Hendeichson. Costs us no assets. I'm not sure who else is out there.

I did, you are using everything post June numbers. The difference between us is I think trades will happen around the draft, you are using everything Post June. You can not designate trades after June if you do earlier like cuts.

Unless Cincinnati puts a tag on Hendrickson, he's a free agent next year. Cleveland and Vegas are in rebuild mode which means they could trade them players but more likely for draft picks. Not sure why they would trade for high priced assets when it's at least 2 years before they will be good again.

I am using OTC cap information . Do you have other sources to verify your stats? If there are any trades they will probably happen around draft time not post June.

That all sounds good. Find me 3 teams that will want to trade for JJ, DJ and Kmet. You can cut Edmunds and resign D Jackson that will have a probably 5 mil cost in 26. You have dead money of 34 mil you have to account for for 26 alone if all those transactions happen. From Poles outlook, do you think he thinks losing DJ, Kmet, JJ and Edmunds, and at least 2 first round draft picks is worth signing Crosby? I think he will try sign a Hendrickson as a better option than that complicated scenario. Crosby only has a 1/2 sack more than Sweat does right now this year. Booker is a potential young Maxx Crosby being the same size with a no stop motor. I do think they try to add a pass rusher but not sure it's with the cost of 6 assets.

I don't disagree with anything you said but I don't think the bears will do that. DJ will have a 12 million Dead Cap hit next year and 8 mil in 27 if traded. So the Cap relief isn't as great as it looks on paper. I would love to get one of those guys but the cost will be to great. Poles will figure something out but doubt if it's Crosby or Garrett.

Willis is one hit away from being out of the game. He has limited practices all week. It could get ugly fast. Plus Wilson is the only healthy RB.

All fans are like that. I realize the Packers are a good team but badmouth them every chance I get. I've been watching a lot of NFC North podcasts and they all say how lucky we are to win 6 last minute games but it no longer becomes luck when you do it that much. Good teams find ways to win.

If SF wins out, they get the #1 seed and never have to leave home. The SB is in SF .

I seen a video about adjusted comp rate and Caleb is at 70% . They take in account throw always and drops. We're good to go and it's only getting better. Someone may have already mentioned this, I didn't read every post on this thread.

At 8-8 , they are going to want to have a losing season this year. Next week will not be easy.
