Per Rich Eisen: “The Bears are long down the road to trading the first overall pick. The teams have been identified, compensation is being hammered out.”

My hope is the Bears trade with the Texans and then trade out of #2 with us.

Not only would the chaos be hilarious, but it would net the Bears 3 first round picks next year for sure, allow them to load the hell up, and would still allow us to take our pick between Stroud, Young, Levis, and Richardson, whoever wasn't chosen at #1.

This would also be slightly cheaper for us.

This is my primary concern as well.

Drafting a good QB is just step 1. Surrounding him with talent is how you develop him and win with him. 

We can’t do that if we don’t have a 1st round pick until after his 3rd year. We have too many holes in our roster.

Remember, QB + HC combos win a SB in their first 5 years together or they never do.

To play devil's advocate here, our cap situation gets LOT better after this year. We could be significant FA players. And the 1st round isn't the only place to find talent in the draft. Especially when you have good young talent at the premium positions outside of QB. Icky at LT, Horn at CB, Burns at EDGE, Moore at WR, Brown at DT, etc.

It kindof doesnt once you figure we are resigning burns, chinn, brown on the horizon.  I suspect we pick up the 5th on brown and try to extend him asap but maybe not.  Chinn is going to be due for a nice extension as well.   We will have cap space but its not like we are going to be flush

It’s rare to find high end talent in FA. Guys are let go for a reason.

Its also really expensive.

It’s virtually impossible to collect players like Burns, Moore, Ikey, and Brown in FA. Both for talent and financial reasons.

They are good players to build on and we need more. They need someone to pair with them to become a complete team. They could get a lot better if they manage to hit on 3 or 4 of those picks.

The Bengals spending money in FA contributed heavenly to them making deep playoff runs right after drafting Burrow.

Hopefully we can make the cap as fake as the Saints do lol.

Is this a running joke here or do people actually have alts? Lol what’s the point in that. 
 

Just look like a fool and own it like the rest of us!

Because they are scared to say what they want to say. So they create an alt thinking it wont be traced back to them. But mostly to be a dick.
