He may be promoting a coach on the team already. At the start of the season they had 20 persons in the coaching dept. Minus who has been let go , that leaves most of your defensive assistants. Maybe Hoke, aligns with Flus philosophy and is a smart guy. Most coaches dip into a market of people they know, like you said, he may already know.

It's a person that crowns themselves an( expert). Example: Mel Kiper, been doing it forever so automatically he's an expert. He may be smarter than a common fan but he doesn't have to be accountable to anyone if he's wrong. Last year, Kiper had Stroud ranked 3 rd best QB, McShay, 2, Reid 2, Miller 2. So much for experts. So now this year, new QBs, new rankings but they are still the experts.

Of course he attached himself to Flus or he wouldn't be here. Poles got the job to rebuild the Bears, no way he's bailing on his plan in two years. That's what journalists and fans do. He didn't expect a winning team in yr 2 . He got a 5 year contract and he's at least getting to yr 4.

If Poles and Warren had a private meeting and that happened, you honestly think that gets out? No way that's true. They are the top brass in the organization, that would be a bad look and they sure aren't telling anyone about it.Or maybe Cliff Stein overheard it and told someone about it and that's why he got let go. If it happened and they told the public, they would get fired and it would be a story. First of all, no way to prove it. Without proof, it's a rumor.

You are right it was meant to be funny.

This is a business side move, I would suspect our lawyer in toll (Warren) is involved in this move.

That's Brees and Fields 3 rd season stats.

Waldron and kubiak come from similar offenses, so a transition for Fields will be minimal if they decide to keep him. They're not going to have any problem finding a talented guy. There are only. 30 of those jobs available because of HCs calling plays. So far, adding Coen is # 3 , I think rules are you have to talk to five. Does anyone know another person that has an interview?

If they trade back, there's several blue chip WRs if we didnt end up with Harrison , Nabors is a route perfectionist with great separation. we have a pro bowl Guard? We don't have to worry about money for 2 more years. If we pay JJ, that will be the only expensive signing he makes this off-season. If he brings in some quality in free agency, it will be signings like Edwards, on team favorable contracts. KC paid Mahomes, Kelce, Chris Jones, Joe Thuney, Jauman Taylor, Justin Reed, Hell they paid Scantling 14 mil. They found a way .

If you picking a team, SD weather, Herbert, several blue chip players? I think it's a no brainer to me, for a landing spot for Harbaugh. Been listening to Greg Gabriel and he was saying , the team is just getting their scouting information together. Lots more to evaluate, they have no idea who their QB will be until April. Poles clearly likes JF1, but has a long way to go to figure out the draftable QBs. No way he won't go thru the process to figure out what's best for the team.

You're right, but which one? Poles has to win this year to keep his job, A rookie may effect that plan. He knows he can win next year with an upgraded roster and better play calling. I still think you keep Fields get a prospect with a trade down and develop him a year or two.

Justin Herbert is a tier one QB, yet hasn't won anything, hasn't raised the level of his team that has several blue chip players. Lawrence was a #1 pick, he hasn't been terrible but has a long way to go to be special. He did win a playoff game last year though. It takes a good roster, good coaching and a lot of luck to win SBs in the NFL. Mahomes is the only true #1 that has been there multiple times. It's hard to find them QBs.

Adam is always pushing stats up and literally makes good arguments on both sides of Justin. None of that matters, stats doesn't show how smart players are, how hard they work, how good of leaders they are, or how tough they are. Those are all traits that Poles looks for. Every bad QB that was drafted in the last 5 years all had good stats coming out of college. Good stats didn't work for them.

This is all bullshit, unless you see a reliable source all that stuff is made up.

We need to upgrade our worst position first center then whatever blue chip players are available at our picks. I think he gets a few done in Free agency and fills in with the draft. I think Davis will be fine next year, other than last year, he has a history of above average play. He will bring in competition of course because Jenkins has a injury history.

Ian literally had the Arizona GM job last year and turned it down. If not this year , he will next year. Both him and Poles came from excellent front offices. Ian absolutely contributed to everything Po!es has did so far. Maybe even agreed on bringing Flus back.

You do understand the departed OC had a different game plan with Bagent, quick throws, everything underneath. A lot of Justin's were down field that took more time to develop.

As a group think , we genuinely figure out what's best but the Flus and Justin questions are so divided, not sure we ever come to a consensus on those issues. Am I wrong, or did most of us want Flus or new?

As much as I love Justin, if there's a Burrows type in this draft, Poles will take him. The evaluation is the key, if there's work ethic or character issues, he ain't taking any of them. The experts ( who have no accountability) says Williams is special. Justin will never be a tier one but that doesn't mean you can't win with him. Would everyone be okay with a Joe Burrow type first year? 2700-13-5. Poles knew Roquan Smith was an excellent LB but between the negotiations and his desired value, he declined to keep him and got a cheaper Edwards that was almost as good and a 2 nd round pick. Is he going to decide if draft capital and Justin is a better choice than Williams? We will find out.

We all have expressed our desires what we want but what do you think Poles will do?

I don't know enough about the players to make an honest assumption who's good and who isn't. Poles will do an in-depth look, just see players that sound good for what little information I have. He's supposed to be the top 3T of which would make our defense an elite squad. I remember Poles loved Travis Bell last year, so he's trying to fix that position. He is the same size as Newton is . Dexter may be that guy, the most jump players make is yr2 when entering the NFL. Need more talent.

All prospects will be under constant probing. Poles likes athletic types with strong intangibles. Not sure who fills that bill but if one does Poles will find him. Maye or Daniels? If one doesn't slap him in the face, Justin will be back.

All that sounds good, Poles is going to tag JJ at 17.4 mil and I don't think he pays another 17 mil contract. He seems to only do one a year. He should be able to get a FS and OC in free agency for around 10 mil a piece. There's 3 center upgrades, but not sure of talent at S this year. Dexter is getter better but need more talent at 3 T, draft or FA. We might be in position to draft Newton, which would be a good get.

He made that trade before Stroud played the season well and wasn't considered to play that well. Easy to look back, not that easy looking forward.
