If Pickett is there, we need to trade down with the Steelers

Yeah I think he's draftable for sure, nice arm talent, but I wouldn't touch him in the first two rounds bc of that

I disagree unless you are talking as a backup. If the knee is that bad it is going to be a problem throwing later in the year or earlier. He is going to see more games and more competition at this level. I don't know if you can rely on a guy like that as a starter. It's not going to get better.

One of my closest friends in from Pennsylvania and is a die hard Steelers fan. I asked him about his very trade scenario just last month. From what he said, a lot of the fans in Pittsburgh are in favor of trading up to get Pickett. They like the idea of using a hometown guy to replace Big Ben.

I don't know what type of compensation we'd receive. We'd have to trade all the way down to 20. I'm sure we could get their 2nd round pick in return...and possibly a 3rd or 4th. Do you guys think that would be worth a trade down?

When did we turn down two first and a top of the third round trade to draft Horn? Where did that come from??

 You know where you are, right? Just make stuff up to push your agenda.

I saw one today that had us trading 6 to Cleveland for 12, 44, and 105. Willis and 2 olinemen.

Pretty sure that didn't happen. I distinctly remember them saying they were open to trading back but it would only be if a team included a future 1st and they didn't get an offer. 

Maybe I'm wrong and something else has come out since then but that was the chatter post draft.

Bears receive:

 

2021 first-round pick (No. 11 QB Justin Fields )

Giants receive:

 

2021 first-round pick (No. 20 WR Kadarius Toney)

2021 fifth-round pick (No. 164 traded to Broncos)

2022 first-round pick

2022 fourth-round pick

For more background on the deal, click here.

 

Why would the Bears give the Giants 2 1sts, a 5th, and a 4th for #11 but not give us the same (probably better) package at #8?

 

This staff drooled over a CB we clearly didn't need and had no intentions of dealing that pick.

 

I don't remember the report, but I also read somewhere multiple teams called us about #8 for that LT and Fields. 

No I can't prove it, but i seriously doubt the bears didn't offer us AT LEAST what they gave the Giants for Fields.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
