The Bears raped the Raiders IMO. With a rookie contract QB, they're going all-in betting they can become the Rams and win before they have to pay Mitch. The trade...

Mack, a HoF level player, AND what will probably be a pick around 35-40

For

Two picks in the 15-24 range.  

 

Laughably bad for the Raiders IMO unless they absolutely nail those draft picks. 

So the Raiders are gonna finish in the bottom 8 this year, but Chicago will be 15-24th in order?

Look on the brightside the Bears might give the Packers and Vikings more trouble to help out other NFC teams. NFCS were already gonna beat up on each other good that the NFCN might do the same. 

I think that's fair, but the conference just got considerably better, again. 

AFC should just forfeit the season and let all the NFC teams into the Playoffs.

8th to 15-20 this year is crazy for a team that added a ton of talent, and playing a last place schedule? Defense was already really good, and added Roquan Smith and Mack.  

Offense has Mitch in Year 2, and added Allen Robinson, Taylor Gabriel, Anthony Miller, and Trey Burton with Nagy's offense. As long as they don't poo the bed, I feel like the Bears can pull off 8-8 or 9-7...only adding a few wins.

 

Meanwhile the Raiders were 6-10, their division improved while they've regressed, just lost their best player, and core guys are openly questioning the team on Twitter.  Yeah, I'll take the Bears to be a couple games better next year.

This is why it’s a good trade to me for the bears. They have Aaron Rodgers, Matt Stafford and Kirk cousins in that division (say what you want about cousins but I think he’s gonna shine big time there redskins held him back and stafford can sling the rock) they need a player who can disrupt those top tier qbs pronto.

I'd have agreed with that premise based on Aaron Rodgers alone.

I just think they gave up a little too much.

I'm never a big fan of giving up two first-rounders.

Heck, he Bears did that not terribly long ago for Jay Cutler (granted, different GM).

And totally different player. Barring injury Mack is one of the best if not the best defensive player in the game

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
