Rumor: Multiple Teams Believe Bears Go QB In First Round

For those of you into draft rumors and whispers, this particular crumb may spark some interest.

According to many teams around the league, the consensus is the Bears will go QB in round 3.

First off, this will push prospects down, particularly any BPA player or safety in particular. This may also entice the Jaguars to take a stab at Allen, which would also make sensible the theory that the Panthers are going in the draft not expecting Jonathan Allen to be available. 

Theoretically, possibilities of Hooker, Adams, and Fournette being available have increased due to such a possibility.

For those of you who aren't sure, considering they have paid Glennon big time, he provides an explanation:

Thus, what happens is that this increases our odds at having a fine selection of prospects to choose from. With Garrett, Thomas, and Allen likely going for picks 1-4, we may be looking at increased odds of Fournette dropping to us in particular, considering no other teams would make logical sense to take him concerning team needs and fit.

Just some speculation, thoughts, and rumors I thought I'd share with you all.

Doesnt sound like John Fox but these teams are gonna make Cleveland think hard about QB at 1.  Still think its Garrett all day.

I don't think Fox is in much of a position right now to dictate much regarding the #3 overall pick. He's probably going into the season on one of the hottest seats in the NFL. The Bears are 9-23 under Fox.

Fox isn't against drafting a QB high, he just doesn't like to immediately throw them in as rookies. He wants a vet in place so their rookie QB can sit and learn for a year or two, which is what they've done. And as LinvilleGorge pointed out, he basically has one foot out the door and minimal input on these decisions anyway. This is most likely his last season as HC anywhere.

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
