Is that a local writer? He doesn't know that Allen is a slot WR when he thinks Tyler Scott is playing there. We have yet add to add the big X WR of which we will do in the draft.

There's more misinformation out than the one true report. Last year Poles met with Carter and we didn't take him. He will dig deep. I trust him to figure it out.

Definitely adds more fire to trade back competition. Poles could move back 3 times with that first pick . Can't imagine how many bodies that nets.

We now have 4 weapons that all have low drop rates. all are lower than 6% . Some QB is going to have a Bastille Day throwing to that group. The OL has depth, and a strong running game. This offense is going to hit the ground running. Allen turned down restructuring his contract and that is why he got traded. He could be a one and done here because I don't think Poles is giving him big money with an extension. That's why we're getting a top WR early to work with Allen and DJ and breakout his second year.

Cool, Cool, I have a dry sense of humor too.

You think they already have decided but if something comes up, they change their minds. I don't think they have. It's just opinions. anteces

Minnesota traded with Houston to get draft capital to trade up for a QB. Does 11 and 23 plus a one next year work out in the draft value charts?

What came to mind was someone reported that Schefter said the Bears were trying to trade Justin and I said no one has access to Poles and what he's doing. I said I wasn't buying it. You said( not word for word) c'mon man everyone knows Scheftner and Rapoport are insiders and have sources. That seems like an absolute to me? I'm try to find the posters get it word for word but haven't found it yet.

Because of two top ten picks our rookie pool is estimated to be around 15 mil and the in season amount he kept last year for a budget was 9 mil. Not sure we're getting any pricey FAs, with that .

I'm A dreamer, I pretend this could happen.

Poles already has an opinion on him, of course but the deep dive is when unexpected things pop up. That's why they do it. If he clears his character issues, I think he drafts him too. Just don't think it's final yet.

I keep hearing different amounts, not sure who is right or wrong. If he wants someone, he will play with the numbers to make it work. Last year he went into the season with 9 mil on the books. No way he's going thru the season with only a few mil for in season transactions.

That's my opinion. That means I 100 % thinks he will get more picks. You make statements like that all the time, why is that a problem ? You don't think so? I'm A gambler, if you disagree 20? 100? That's how sure I am. I'll send the money to Adam to handle it.

You're right about probable outcome but we don't know what Poles thinks of Caleb. He won't do the deep dive until his 30 visit., Then I think things will be more clear. He may like another QB.

We can't have much left after getting Allen. He can work numbers if he wants someone but it gets tougher going forward.

That's your opinion, it only matters what Poles thinks of him. Poles is in the position to make the best call on the good or bad of Justin. The story of Justin being on the trade market is totally media projection. How do have a market when he's not trying to trade him. All of these insiders have not even got one acquisition right. There's no inside information at Halas Hall. Facts, Until Poles takes his 30 visit, he has not made any decisions on who is QB is this year. He actually said that. If he wants Caleb then he will put Justin on the market. Or ( my theory) he keeps both. We only have 4 draft picks. He will absolutely get more. It increases the chances of his first round picks being traded. We still have holes to fill and people afe offering him a kings ransom for pick one. He literally said he liked what he did last year and thinks that could be better this year. If everything is OK with Caleb, I thinks he takes him but we don't know that yet.

Got it.

I remember last year they said other than Williams, the QBs were scarse. Now we have potential 4 going in the first round. No one knows how QBs work out year to year. We can take a QB out of the first round and have one to develop while Justin proves himself. Nix and Penix are projected to be there in the 2nd round. There is always a prospect to get every year . Is Bagent being developed? He's not a tier one but last year Prudy came out of nowhere and was in the SB. Howell and Geno Smith were surprises. Mayfield got cudos. There's never a dire situation when it comes to find a starter.

We aren't getting rid of Herbert. Use last year as an example, we were down to our 4th RB. Injuries are unexpected. You think it's worth a 6th pick to lose depth Here's an interesting podcast Listen to Bears trade for Keenan Allen & tons more with Josh Lucas from Hoge & Jahns: a show about the Chicago Bears on Audacy - https://go.audacy.com/wV5wcJX3ZHb

I'm not sure they have the money to get two Prime vets.

It was only a day , and Justin is on vacation, just may not have connected with him yet. I think drafting Caleb would only be the prospect that their would be a problem with. Super ego. Anyone else will need some time to develop. So they have him sit for a year and develop. Tell Justin he has a year to prove himself, the rookie doesn't have any leverage. Best of both worlds. It worked out in KC.

It's okay to stick it to them because they're in our division. Teams fighting for the first pick is driving the price up.

Doing right by him is trying to get him traded where he may want to go. Or keeping him as his QB.

So the narrative that we are taking Williams and trading Justin could be a projection?
