I have no doubt Fields would have sucked with Rhule coaching him. But he's better than anything we have now and likely better than the QBs we will be in position to draft given Wilks being an actual NFL coach. 

I really liked him but when he slid I assumed it was because he had flaws I didn't see. I am, after all, a terrible talent evaluator lol. I'm glad he's finding success and I hope that bears team can build around him.

It would’ve been similar to what he was drafted into with Nagy. All qb prospects have flaws. Trading for Darnold wouldn’t have stung as much if we drafted fields along with that. It was a mistake to not draft him. The ones who didn’t want him will continue to move the goalposts. Fields is on an upward trajectory and he IS their offense, the bears are gonna have a top 5-7 pick with insane amounts of cap space. This was essentially his first year and he’s doing these things already.

It’s the same thing we heard with Cam. Puts up great numbers and plays really well but he’s not winning because the team around him wasn’t very good. And fields has a worse team around him then cam did his first couple of years. There were people on this site questioning if he was actually a franchise qb (he always was from day 1) after his second season.

Cam wasn't a great passer and I have a feeling Fields won't even reach Cam level passing.

I don't want a Cam level passer drafted by the Panthers.

When Goodell said "The Panthers select J...." I was like Ustin Fields!!! But no.  No offense to Jaycee though, he's a great corner

If I was tepper I would at some point call fitt into the office and have him go over the scouting report on fields and figure out how they missed this knowing damn well we needed a guy at the time.

Fields put up good yardage numbers in college, and he was historically accurate. Cam? Not so much. So, my feeling is that he can pass, he just needs to be provided better weapons and needs a better O-line. Nagy tried to break him with all kinds of foolish regarding mechanics. Now, he has to re-learn, as the coach is allowing him to play to his strengths. Fields just needs time and weapons to put it all together. NFL types are VERY high on him as a result of the last several weeks. Hell, if he had any type of team, he'd be in MVP discussion.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
