Texan's offered Bears 2024 First Round pick to move up to #1.

Not necessarily. It all depends on if you believe we are interested in more than one QB and how their pro days may affect those evaluations. They may also not have been able to get DJ Moore who was a key to the trade. If the Panthers favor one QB above the other, they may not be interested in moving up in the draft until draft day after the 1st pick. Too many variables in play this time of year to say a team is dumb for getting a guaranteed haul vs trade and hope. 

Now if the Panthers are truly equally interested in 2, then that trade up for a 24 1st would be a nice little item to get back, especially if it ends up being an early pick and MH jr is available. 

Fitts said we were targeting #3 but since the cost wasn't much different we just went to #1 instead.

If this is true the Bears are DUMB. I take that deal all day and then flip #2 to the Panthers for another haul.

agree.  I can't guarantee we would have offered the same package to go to #2 as we did to go to #1 but I would guess it would have been close.

It all depends on how much of this is truth and how much is smoke screen to hide our intentions at 1. This time of year there is so much misinformation flying all over. Either way, we are where we are.

If this played out and the Texans give us their 2024 1st and we still get our guy…….man oh man would Fitt be a legend. 

Means we would have lost:

2.61 (one of the last picks in the 2nd this year), a 2025 2nd, and DJ Moore to land our future franchise QB. 

Losing DJ hurts, but the Texans will likely have a top 5-10 pick next year that we could land a WR1 (Marvin Harrison Jr) or a guy like Brock Bowers. Sheesh

Getting DJ Moore changed things for them. And it’s safer to take the deal presented to you right now than HOPE somebody offers a better one closer to the draft.

I feel that Fitterer gives off a much more "I can negotiate with this guy" feel than some of the other GMs around the league.  I sense he's the type that can gain leverage and get a favorable deal without the other side knowing yet.  Poles is young, inexperienced, there's going to be speedbumps in Chicago.  

Them getting DJ Moore and a few future picks doesn't help as much as they think.  Herbert, Foreman, DJ, Mooney, Claypool is above avg on paper, but could unravel very quick, especially if the line doesn't hold up.

If we landed MHJ to pair with our young QB, this place would explode with excitement!  With that said, I would be very surprised if it was next year's first to move up one spot...

I think Bears GM just kind of talks out his ass tbh. If there was greater value on the table he would have taken it. 

Exactly.  This is fun to pass the time with but isn't based on reality.  And if it is, we will be taking that deal.

    • I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!
    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
