July 5, 20214 yr comment_185285 I keep hearing about the teams with the best spots for a rookie QB, and I understand there are a bunch of factors that go into that, but at the end of the day it comes down to the core skill position players with the ball in their hands. I know coaching, scheme, O-Line, defense, and even opponents all factor into this, but it is hard for me to look at the 5 teams with 1st Round rookies and not like the position the Bears are in from a skill position standpoint. I added on extra player per roster, and for the Bears could've chosen Byrd or Goodwin, but went with Cohen. Bears Justin Fields WR1 Robinson WR2 Mooney RB1 Montgomery RB2 Williams TE1 Kmet TE2 Graham XTR Cohen - RB Jags Trevor Lawrence WR1 Chark WR2 Shenault RB1 Robinson RB2 Etienne TE1 O'Shaughnessy TE2 Ellefson XTR Jones - WR I like their running game and top 2 WRs, but their TEs are LOL, especially if they are looking at Tebow. I expect a ton of play-action and bubble screens. Jets Zach Wilson WR1 Crowder WR2 Davis RB1 Coleman RB2 Perine TE1 Herndon TE2 Brown XTR Moore (R) - WR I like the WR Corps, but Davis benefitted heavily from AJ Brown on the other side and teams stacking the box to stop Henry. Are they going to do the same with Crowder/Coleman? I doubt it. Zero help at TE either. 49ers Trey Lance WR1 Aiyuk WR2 Samuel RB1 Mostert RB2 Juszczyk TE1 Kittle TE2 Pruitt XTR Bourne - WR Kittle makes this roster and the Samuel addition is interesting, however, is Lance going to be able to go from NDST to an advanced NFL offense with a billion options on every play in one year? That is hard for me to believe and that is how the Shanahan offense works. Lacks top-end WR and Mostert has 1x 100-yd game in his career. So how good is this roster. A lot of above-average IMO. Pats Mac Jones WR1 Meyers WR2 Agholor RB1 Harris RB2 Michel TE1 Henry TE2 Smith XTR White - RB I know Bill always pulls something out of his arse but this is a very weak skill position roster. I know that makes them interchangeable, but nobody stands out. I can see a lot of RB screens, wheel routes and quick passes in this offense. So outside of Kittle as TE1, and Etienne as RB2, is there any other player from the 4 other teams that you would swap with our current player in that same position? Maybe Smith (41-448 8 TD) for Graham (50-456 8 TD) as TE2? To me, that's it. The Bears are in a really good position for Fields to excel. Report
