Tee Higgins, Chris Jones, Danielle Hunter, Brian Burns, Montez Sweat, Rashan Gary, Calvin Ridley, Michael Pittman, Jaylon Johnson. WRs and Pass Rushers galore! Caleb Williams throwing to DJ Moore, Marvin Harrison Jr, and Tee Higgins? How would that look? https://www.nfl.com/news/top-50-nfl-free-agents-in-2024-tee-higgins-headlines-deep-receiver-crop-pass-rus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan Grizzly Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 The Bears are this generation of Browns. Will have a team full of 1st round talent searching indefinitely for its “franchise QB”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubs are there too, but being a Sox fan I have reserved feelings for them. I want the Bears to be legit but they just cannot ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 Bears are going to have to earn the #1 spot this year even more than last year because of their cake schedule. I read an article about how teams that have started off 0-4 have had the #1 pick in 15 of the past 21 drafts. The Panthers are the only other 0-4 team right now, and the Bears just so happen to have their pick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted October 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 Carolina's next 3 weeks are @DET, @MIA, then their bye (which is super early). So they will go into their bye 0-6. After their bye, things lighten up with HOU, IND, and @CHI. I figure they will win at least one of those but could come into the game with the Bears 0-8 or 1-7. The Bears get WSH (2-2), MIN (1-3), then LVR (1-3) before @LAC (2-2) and NO (2-2) before the CAR game. Just based on probability, the Bears will win at least one of those before the CAR game and probably 2 to go into that game at 2-7. For draft positioning, you want the 1st pick at all costs, so the team with the better record needs to win the CAR/CHI game to push the lower team down even further. Here is my tankathon schedule grid. The next two weeks will have 4 of the bottom 10 teams get wins. NYJ@DEN and CIN@ARI this week and MIN@CHI and NE@LV in Week 6. One great projection for the Bears is Carolina only plays 1 game against one of the bottom 10 teams all year, the Bears. LV plays 6 of 10 and CHI and MIN play 5 each.

Stinger226 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 We have a better roster than last year, so i see us being more competitive at some point in time. With injuries to the OL and DBs its made for a bad 4 weeks. If we can overcome our coaches, we still could win 4-6 games. The key is Fields continuing to improve.

killakrzydav Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 I'd draft Caleb but trade the lower of the two for a team in the top ten for hopefully 3 first round picks or 2 and 2 seconds then draft Harrison, Top LT, or DE.

killakrzydav Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 Specifically, I'd trade number 2 with Arizona for 9, 13, and 41 then draft Caleb, Fashano or Alt as our new LT, Verse, and then both a top Center and 3T with picks 33 and 41.

You can trade that second pick down, and perhaps get a good haul for it too, but you won't be able to draft Harrison Jr if you trade back lower than #3.

adam Posted October 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 Now only 7 teams with 1 win or less. The only game with 2 of these teams against each other in the next 4 weeks is this week, MIN at CHI. Week 12 and 16 will be big weeks as 2 teams each of those weeks will come away with another win. The Bears play in both of those weeks. The Bears have 4 games out of their next 12 against the bottom 7 teams. MIN has 3, 2 against the Bears. The Bears also have 3 of these games at home. Carolina has a brutal schedule, the only relief is CHI in Week 10 but on the road. They have a great chance to go 0-17. They may be able to squeak one out against HOU or IND at home after the bye, but that's it. Maybe ATL in Week 15? 0-17 or 1-16 max. #1 pick most likely. Denver looks terrible, all signs point to a huge fire sale before the deadline. They may not win another game. Maybe NE in Week 16 to go 2-15. Most likely pick #1 or #2. The Bears are gonna win some games. Will probably end up with 6-7 wins just based on SoS alone. If Fields continues to play well and the secondary gets healthy, they may squeeze out 1 or 2 more wins and end up drafting in the teens. 6-11 to 8-9 likely. Minnesota will probably win 3-4 more, but if they lose to the Bears on Sunday, they will more than likely be 1-6 heading into GB in Week 8. Likely 4-13. Pick 3-5. NE looks as bad as Denver, the worst two losses in Belichick era the last two weeks. At most I see them winning 4 games (4-13). Pick 3-5. The Giants are in the DEN / NE category without Barkley. However, if they get him back, they can probably eek out 2-3 more wins, but 3-5 wins seems like their window. Likely 5-12. Pick 4-7. Arizona may not win another game, or if they do, it will be in the next few weeks as their last month is SF, at CHI, at PHI, and SEA. They look like a 2-3 win team max and will probably be in the top 3 in the draft. Pick #1-#3. Just the way the teams are playing right now, I believe the draft order would be CAR, DEN, ARI (due to Sos), NE, MIN, NYG with the Bears out of the top 10. I think the Bears will surpass the Raiders, Texans, Commanders, Jets, and be mixed in with the Packers, Titans and Browns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted October 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 This is a bad team, they don't even need to try to lose, they will do it regardless. They are now back in 2nd at 1-5 now passing the Broncos due to SoS. Panthers are 0-6 at #1. They have LVR, LAC, NO before CAR. More than likely will be 1-8 when they play an 0-8 CAR team. This is also why you don't fire anyone in season, just let this dumpster fire keep going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
