I tink he just keeps building the roster and will let the QB situation play itself out. He has set it up to draft a QB if Fields fails. I do think he will make moves that allow him to win in 2024. You only get so long to do your job before it comes back on Poles. He has a chance to add several blue chip players in this draft. It would work out better if one of them wasn't a QB but not sure he knows that yet.
Michael Lombardi is always giving the Bears crap and seen this tweet.
Michael Lombardi talks a lot of shit for someone whose three first round picks in two years were Barkevious Mingo, Justin Gilbert and Johnny Manziel
I think 17 is what the transition tag would be. Sweat is better than Gary and as soon as Gary signed a 96 for 4 yrs, it had to beat that. Sweat isnt top 5 but arguably around 10 as an edge. We had to get a pass rusher and Sweat should make Ngakoue better. Poles needed to see what Flus can do with a more complete D as to whether to fire him or not.
As much as we watch games and have opinions, front offices dive in 10 times deeper and still get it wrong 90% of the time. We have 2 question marks at QB that has some game so I dont think they take a QB unless they view as a sure thing. Not sure the top two fall in that category but I think they draft one but not at the top of the draft. Someone like a Bagent can sit on the practice squad and learn. Maye seems to be the pocket passer in this group with a strong arm and good size, maybe him? What I would like for them to get MH Jr no matter who else they take, pair him with DJ and you have one of the top WR group in the league which has to help whoever plays QB.
We have the rest of the season to figure out if JF1 stays or we draft one. I dont agree with everything Poles does but think he should get next year to see what he is building. He has did well with getting us a good cap space and draft picks, I want see how it turs out. Just to early rihjt now to see his long game.
I am not as addicted as you but I do a couple everyday. I have seen player movement to adjust to real value. They didnt have them right in the beginning. if we can get MH Jr and trade back with the other one for extra picks, I will be happy.
I think any that had the top 2 QBs picked after the 3rd pick is unrealistic. I didnt look at all of them because I was getting dizzy but like this one because you added 3 OL and 3 DL and 10 top 100 players, Plus a 1st and 2nd rounder future picks.
If Braxton comes back and plays well, I doubt they take a OT in the first round. I would like to draft a OT to be a swing OT in a mid round. The centers arent ranked real high but still grab one.
If he ends up being the choice Im good with it but want to other candidates and compare. I never even gave Campbell a thought when he went to Detroit, turned out good.
