It will come out or prove to be no big deal. We all assume it's Williams but that's not a 100% for sure.

Poles being nice to Justin was getting him out of here right away. Timeline: Poles wasn't moving Fields as soon as the season was over. He had to vent his options first. I believe getting Caleb in for the 30 visit was to rush to the decision for Poles and Caleb blew him off so it took him more work to decide. He was not trading Fields until he decided. Then mac Jones got traded for a 6 th took away any value return for Justin. So he took the beat option for Justin going to Pittsburgh. Its a 2025 pick to end up wit the 4 th instead of the 6 th. He couldn't get it now. Ideally he should have kept him to raise his value as Caleb developed. It would have been a circus. So he had to do it now.

Poles gets to take heat for the results but we have a better team with a potential Mahomes 2.0 QB on the horizon. plus another top 10 pick. If he gets this right , we will be competing for SBs for many years to come. The bright side will be no big expense on a QB for 4 years. I just hope a selfish Caleb doesn't pop up a couple years from now and holds out for a new contract because he thinks he's special. Super egos carry baggage with them.

I don't have a problem with the results. He waited to gain more information on the rookies before deciding. I would be more pissed for him to jump in the QB Russian roulette to get a higher pick. Doing right by Justin was getting him out of here at any cost.instead keeping him around to the chaos that follows. Now how do we get more picks and not trade pick one.

I don't need to say I'm disappointed, I rooted for Justin because I always want good people to succeed. He was our QB until Poles moved him, so I can move on. Now all the I'm smarter than you crowd can gloat for the next few days. I just became a Steelers (B) fan.Bears (A) because I still think Justin can be a above average NFL player in the league. Next step is Caleb our QB or will Poles surprise us?

Now everything is cleared up. We can move on to a new QB and no more fighting.

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.
