Keep Fields and get some dumb team to do what SF did for Lance. 

got to wonder if the last QB trade ups are going to cause to outlandish offers to comeback down to Earth a tad. 

I hope so. Outside of Andrew Luck few rookie qbs were worth 3 1s and potentially more. And Luck got hurt.....

Yeah there's no telling if Chicago can even get out of pick #1. Only real scenario I see would be if Colts wanna jump the Texans for a particular guy. If Chicago is forced to pick D I could then see a few teams hit up the Cards for the #3 pick including us

Also after the Super Bowl, the NFL machine will do its thing.  How the prospects are portrayed today will be viewed different in the coming months I suspect.  So we will have to see what it looks like then and who gets bumped and up down.

Yeah Young and Stroud probably aren't going to blow any minds at the combine with their physicality either.

      XL about to turn the corner

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
