Three firsts, a third and two players.

The available players they were willing to offer reportedly included Khalil Mack and Akiem Hicks.

Is this official, or just rumored? Sorry, I didn't really read much on that potential deal.

Those (3) 1st would presumably all be late picks starting with 20 this year. Pick 8 is worth more than pick 20, 2022 1st, and that 3rd rounder. I would say picks 8 and 40 are worth more than all those picks combined.

Khalil Mack is a great player, but in my opinion is a negative in that trade. His cap hit goes to $30 million next year (2022), and then has 3 years left on the contract through 2024.  

Hicks will be a FA next offseason, and will also command a large contract. 

This is not me making a case for Russell, because I am certainly not. Just trying to see if the Bears offered the value that people keep saying.

Officially reported from a couple of different sources.

If I recall correctly, the source that had the names of specific players was Albert Breer.

The Watson/Wilson rumors have actually talked me into being the most comfortable with a slight trade up for Lance or Fields whether it's to #3 or #5. 

I'd prefer we have a deal with MIA set up going into the draft and get ourselves Lance for less without losing any players, 6-8 less years under his belt, and all the potential in the world.

Package that with some weapons and linemen to round out the draft and we can go into the season with the usual void in the secondary lol.

I rather have Wilson over Watson. I would take him 11 out of 10 times. And nothing has to do with the Watson drama. Watson knows how to win, Watson is still learning how to win. Wilson is older but his season last year was by far from impressive than Watson who was pretty much playing from behind the whole season. Forty passing touchdowns. 

He specifically wants out of a market that is just like Charlotte and they turned down Mack, Ayers and 3 first round picks.

I want Watson bc of the likelihood he would stay....Wilson is a total wild card with Ciara.

Just curious, but how is the Seattle market "just like" Charlotte?

Mack’s cap hit is 30 mill after this year. 

I think you mean Hicks not Ayers and Hicks is a free agent after this season so he provides no real value with 1 year left.

If that’s really the best the Bears could offer no wonder they were turned down. That’s a terrible package for Seattle

Yeah maybe you’re right. Maybe Burns is more valuable.

Both had 10 sacks and 3 forced fumbles last season. Obviously there’s a ton more besides these two stats but yeah.

One is 30 on a huge contract while the other is going into his 3rd season on a rookie deal and is still improving. 

It ain’t even close imo

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.

      That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have.

      Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
