Cam/Trubisky trade?

While we're all poo posting terrible ideas for the future...

I wouldn't be shocked if something like this went down. It seems like we're hell-bent on going the full rebuild route and that's what Rhule has done in both of his college stops. From a physical tools perspective, Trubisky has everything Joe Brady should want in a QB to bring his offense to the NFL. So should Cam, but all the tea leaves seem to point toward the Panthers moving on from Cam. There's probably gonna be a lot of talk about the Panthers moving up to #1 to get Joe Burrow but the cost would probably be astronomical and the roster has a ton of holes that would have to go unaddressed for that to happen.

Meanwhile, in Chicago Nagy's seat has to be one of the warmest in the NFL going into next season. He was supposed to bring a KC style offense to Chicago and it's an understatement to say that hasn't quite worked out. Trubisky is getting a lot of the blame for that but in the games I've watched I don't think that's necessarily a completely fair assessment. If Nagy thinks Cam is the best bet to save his job then I'm sure he'd be all for getting him. Chicago as an overall team certainly seems a lot closer to compete for a SB than the Panthers and if they think Cam can get them over that hump I could absolutely see some sort of Cam for Trubisky trade going down. If Trubisky doesn't work out for the Panthers, there's a very good chance we'll be high in next year's draft and then we can look at options like Lawrence and Fields. In terms of cap hit, we'd save close to $10M.
 

I'm a huge Cam fan and I want to stick with Cam, but if you're moving on from Cam this is a move that could potentially make sense for both parties. The Bears make a hail mary effort to capitalize on a potential SB window while the Panthers get to kick the tires on a young QB who has similar physical tools to Joe Burrow with no long-term commitment.

Flame away.

Flame away?

Okay then I will......................if we don't figure out how to create a quality O line with depth in backups........then trading for any skill position player in the offensive backfield is just arranging the chairs around on the Titanic ............

So this organization just hired a HC who has Oline coaching experience in the NFL ....if that is the case then maybe .........just maybe he might be able to drill it through the meatball eating head Marty Hurney how to put the horse before the cart for once in this organization.

............end of story.

No, I agree. It's part of the problem with trading up for Burrow. I'm not against it if we think he's an elite franchise QB, but unless the new staff thinks they have something to work with in guys like Little and Daley then we'd be setting the kid up to fail. Our OL this past season was truly one of the worse pass protecting units I've ever seen in the NFL.
