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

    • well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying 
    • All that being the case or maybe being the case, we do not know Wharton’s timetable n the first place. They are being coy about it. Or maybe not. They say week to week the board says he is terminal lol and must be replaced. Who knows? It may or may not warrant a fairly drastic solution.  Walker is a bargain and we are not well stocked at OL despite recent investments. Freeling has yet to have a single padded practice. Too much speculation driving this plan IMO. 
    • I would really love to know who’s actually making these moves because it’s weirdly vague who’s doing the hiring and firing.
