We are definitely the one that would offer them the 24 1 and 25 1 hahaha. They better take it before we sign Carr and kill their leverage.

I think the Bears have to project the three teams on where they are today, and where they think they will be the best two years after. If you drop to 9 and miss out on Anderson and Carter, and they think we are playoff bound the next two years, it makes more sense to take another teams offer because our picks will be low value.

Us, Indy, Texans?

I’d guess us, Indy, and then a team like the Raiders or Falcons. I don’t think the Texans need to give all that up to move up one spot. If they did the Bears would be announcing the trade right now and getting ready to flip pick 2 for a haul.

It depends on what the Bears want. It also depends on what the Texans want.

If the Texans really want first dibs, they need to keep another team from jumping in front of them. That means competing for the pick and giving the bears what they want.

It’s about competition now, not just pick value.

I do agree the Raiders could be one of the three.

I wouldn't bet on that.

It's possible we're one of the teams that spoke to them to gauge the price, but I don't believe we'd give that up.

I believe we would. But why would the Bears take our #9 and our future picks should be playoff picks. 
 

A team like Indy is projected to be further away from the playoffs so it’s better value and they would only drop to 4 this year to get their top end defensive player. 
 

We would be the team that has to offer something else to close the door now because we offer the worst value of picks now plus the future. We aren’t far away from the playoffs now and we play in a bad division.

Rumor is the Raiders are looking at Jimmy G.

I don't, primarily because Scott Fitterer has yet to show any willingness to trade away first rounders. He puts a lot of value on those picks.

It's also been said that we like nearly all of the top prospects so a trade to #1 wouldn't be necessary to get a guy we want. Going to #3 or #5 would probably be enough.

Mind you, all this is pending whether we pursue Derek Carr or not.

Didn’t he offer 2 future firsts for Watson?

    • Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.
    • Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy
    • Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
