lol he's not lasting to the 2nd. I'm not even a big fan of his but Combine sealed him up as a late first at worst.

Combine has me crushing on Adetomiwa Adebawore. 6'2, 280, 4.49. Decently long arms and 27 reps too. Raw as hell but you can't teach that size/speed combo, hard to imagine a better project to take over YGM's spot.

There are some very intriguing 3-4 ends that can kick inside when needed.

I was a fan to bring him in as a potential Shaq replacement earlier in the process.  Now with the defensive scheme switch and his exceptional combine I give up. He will land with a perennial favorite in the later part of the first.  This combine gives credence to why we are switching to a 3-4 though. The linebackers and "undersized" DE's OLB types are showing out.  Give me a Owen Pappoe and Will McDonald and call it a day.

Wouldn't be shocking to see him go to Chicago with our #9 overall pick.

I think jalen carter will be there and they will be dancing in the streets......but if any team form 8-14 picks smith, its fair........thats how hot he is currently. Like above he was the "QB bust plan" fall back for me.....

I’m pretty tuned into the Bears and have been accurate on what I’ve said about not trading Fields, what their plan was for this off-season, and had the trade down to a T outside of Moore because I thought there’s no way we give him up, but I knew the didn’t want Burns…

We have to see how green agency plays out but there’s a good chance they are still taking Carter at 9 if he drops. 
 

If they can sign Hargraves and Jones up the middle they can move on from that and focus on offensive line or edge. 
 

As of right now I see the Bears trading back from 9.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
