Cleveland gives their #12, their 2nd rounder, their 3rd rounder, and a 6th rounder to the Bears for #3. Report
April 27, 20178 yr comment_164050 There's also a conflicting rumor out there that the Browns want to trade DOWN from 12 and will take Trubisky at 1. That was all from Greg Gabriel. It's gonna be an interesting day. Report
April 27, 20178 yr comment_164054 I don't mind trading down. If it's me, I wait until we are on the clock. I think the browns take Garrett at one, but would love Trubisky at 3. It's a gamble because of SF needing a QB desperately. Mocks are also coming in with Trubisky coming in at 1... Report

April 27, 20178 yr comment_164063 I'm hoping the Panthers are in love with Fournette and wanna trade ahead of the Jags at 4 so they trade the 8th pick to the Bears. I think there are 5 or 6 guys (not including Garrett)that make sense for the bears so I think 8 is a perfect spot when you consider Garrett, Fournette and probably a few other guys the bears don't need will go before 8. If there's no move down, I'd go Adams. Not only does the team need a safety, but it also needs some leadership and a voice on the defense. Report

Right now--unless the Bears take Watson, anything we do is "Meh" Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164065 Shelter just reported the Bears are looking to trade down. Course he also said Trubisky #1.

April 28, 20178 yr comment_164070 we paid next year's third, and this years 3rd AND 4th! better be an impact player. Pace this is your guy. This is your legacy. Report
April 28, 20178 yr Author comment_164072 Horrible. I don't care who they pick. Horrible. Giving up picks that we couldn't afford. Horrible. Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164073 TRUBISKY!!! WOW! OK well there ya go. They paid the price they must believe in him. This will be Pace's guy forever. Report
April 28, 20178 yr Author comment_164075 Way to go Pace. Just absolutely ruined the draft for me and nearly every other Chicago Bear fan. Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164079 wtf, seriously, you give up 2x 3rd's and a 4th to move up one pick? Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164080 OMG My day is made, Time to buy some Bears stuff We have been in the same camp forever. Report
April 28, 20178 yr Author comment_164086 I love how the Bears pick him, and I immediately get sarcastic emails from friends who are fans of other teams. And then the announcers on ESPN start talking about all the shit he does poorly. <_> Now the #2 pick in the entire NFL draft is going to sit behind Glennon. Just makes no sense whatsoever. So either the Glennon move was horrible, or the Trubisky pick is horrible. No two ways around it. And Trubisky would have been there at #3. Just an overall baffling move. Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164087 I liked Trubisky all along so I'm ok with this. Getting a QB is almost always expensive or just pure dumb luck. Report
April 28, 20178 yr Author comment_164089 And now the Niners pick Thomas, the guy they were going to pick anyway. Great trade. Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164090 What if Cleveland gives us even a bigger haul back including the #12 for him? That is the only way this works. Otherwise, Pace should be fired before tomorrow. Report
April 28, 20178 yr comment_164096 Clearly the Browns were on the phone with the Niners, and set the price. This means that we really liked Trubisky, and the scarcity in the market of top quality QBs, or even people that have a CHANCE of being one drives the price here. Remember we bid for Mariotta and Goff too, and failed, so this was Pace's shot I think. We can debate the cost, but with Glennon and Trubisky, we are going to have a QB pretty soon one way or another. And that has a lot of value too. Also, Glennon was courted by multiple teams at a pretty good price. If Trubisky plays well, We have Glennon's contract for 2 years to sell to a team who wouldnt owe him much at ALL, so all that value would be in draft picks to us, and any team, especially one in cap hell could bid. This could be very shrewd indeed. Report
