I think the problem is I can’t see someone offering a 2nd..if they did he is gone. A 3rd is probably what it would take but Bears may prefer to wait a year in that case. If it happens I think a 3rd with a conditional pick in the following year - if he hits it big maybe it escalates to a 2nd and if it doesn’t hit goes as low as an additional 5th or 6th. 

Right, getting him a year early should cost something like a 2nd. Maybe more. Starting QBs don't grow on trees, and if you're paying a 2nd, you think he's a starter.

If teams feel he isn't worth it, then they can wait until next year. If they believe in him, then they should pay.

Here is some stupid rumors I've seen and throw them into a scenario for our off season.

Bears trade DJ Moore for Devonte Sweat/ NT/ Tenn . Sweat is 25 , great against the run but not much of a pass rusher. 2.6 mil a year but we save 16.5 mil. Contract runs thru 27. 

We trade D Swift and Bagent for Josh Sweat at AZ. Sweat had 12 sacks last year and 49 hurries with 3 FFs. His Cap this year 16.5 mil and has 4 years left in his contract with the last one being a voided yr. Swift and Bagent move 13.3 mil in salary. 

We resign Byard, Demarco Jackson, Zaccheaus , Keenum and E Hicks plus Gardner-Johnson to play SS on a 1 yr deal. 

In this scenario we get the comp pick around pick 100. 

In the draft we trade pick 25 for for Seattle pick 32 and pick 96. 

32- Lee Hunter/ DT 

57- Gabe Jacas/Edge 

89- Isaiah World/ OT 

96- Nicholas Singleton/ RB 

100-Jalon Kilgore/ S

129-Kyle Louis/ LB

163-Marlin Klein/ TE 

240- Andre Fuller/ CB

242- Miller Moss/ QB

I think it is wild seeing Malik Willis as the #1 Free Agent on many lists. His agent is a masterclass. The guy has one start with over 210 yards passing. How is he any different than a guy like Tyler Huntley? Hell, I would take Mitch over Willis any day. Which leads me to this, why would teams be interested in Bagent but not someone like Trubisky? That confuses me. It is not like Trubisky would cost an arm and a leg to get.

Bagent has very little on him, were the others have more tape and been around longer. 

One thing we havent seen is Bagent behind the rebuilt oline and a competent offense. I am sure the Bears know his value and doubt a 3rd would do it since they do not have anyone at backup.
