Bear's side of getting Moore


Recommended Posts

He was a good young player on a decent contract. I understand why we wanted to keep him. Subtracting him and adding Thielen, Chark, and Mingo makes our WR room better overall. Throwing in a great QB prospect in Young should make them even better. It’s sucked at the time but I’m thinking it was the right move.

Who knows how good he could have been since he was obviously held up by bad qbs, but it makes sense to go get a good wr in the draft on a rookie deal. I think having a lot of different options at wr might be better for Bryce than having a true #1 since he is so good reading the field and finding open guys. You have a true #1 wr and then a drop off and the other team has a true #1 cb to neutralize him. 

True #1 WRs dont get neutralized very often, guys like Adams, Jefferson, Hill. Moore is not close to that level, he is more like a brandin cooks.

Good dude. For me, he always lacked that killer instinct and that was the main issue holding him back from being elite. If he could have channeled even a quarter of that Steve Smith mentality I’d probably regret our decision to move on much more than I do now. 

Well stated. I fully agree.

Doubtful. DJ ain’t bailing Fields out of bad situations, he’s not that receiver. And he damn sure isn’t going to fight for the ball or have YAC.

Now if the opposing teams starts playing soft due to being up a couple scores, except big numbers from Moore with a couple/few clutch catches sprinkled in before disappearing, especially when you have to get open in tough situations, you know like in the end zone, where Moore can’t get open to save his life.

Of course that’s if there isn’t an average+ corner on the opposing team who can shut DJ down.

Shall I continue with his blocking and giving up on routes?

Y’all seriously overrate this guy. He’s not worthless but he’s not a #1, or close to it either. 

Had a down year for sure in terms of YAC last season but from his rookie year 2018 on his YAC rankings placed him(12th,8th,16th,#12th) respectively. Ironically he has placed elite among receivers in YAC, probably his best trait. Probably need to throw on some more game tape before you say something as illogical as that.

Y’all some haters lol. DJ for his age has like the third most receiving yards all time and he’s done it with absolute trash throwing in the ball and idiot coaches. 

He is a legit young talent. There is a reason he is one of the 3 players the Bears wanted and we were hesitant to include him.

Another consideration: if Bryce Young's elite processing translates to the pros, it helps neutralize the need for a true #1. He can quickly scan his top 5 options and find the open receiver. Think about Mahomes. I realize Kelce is one of the greatest tight ends of all time, but Mahomes actually had a better year without Tyreek Hill.

Kind of like what happened when we traded CMC. We were forced to look elsewhere. It makes the offense less one dimensional and harder to defend.

    • Johnson is very smart IMO. He will get paid either way but avoiding a terrible spot can save your career too. He looks to be working the system and good for him. I always thought hiring interviews go both ways and have been disappointed watching people not realize this. He handled DC roughly but it was also funny because he did see them as what they are which is a new ownership group, even with Petters, he would be likely be destined for failure there while they figure out the normal learning curve of the NFL.  It's not lying it's just 'your great but I can't say what your not because that is taboo'. Sometimes lies are expected if the truth isn't what they want.  I agree generally. Ron was doing great work as a DC where he put in 6 years as DC at 2 teams vs Canales 1 year as OC before becoming a HC. Ron is such a known quantity by now, he earned his 2nd shot as a HC and it went as expected given his proclivities. Offense is just safer in this NFL vs Defense so any one that can score will get a look. Ryans is a beast but how do you think he fairs without Slowick? Which HCs were in the SB? Offensive guys. It's a thing and makes laughing about TB, Atlanta and NO all having beatable defensive coaches the Panthers still can't beat LOL. It's a dump. If your building a career the Panthers are a long shot. If you are taking a shot, getting paid and/or ready to grow from this failure then this is a great option. I think the jobs are extremely valuable on many levels but there is always a turd in the punchbowl with Tepper. Hurney, Rhule, Friterer, now Caldwell and maybe Morgan. Tepper always leaves some dookie around to contaminate the next batch...they literally help him fug up the next time. It's Tepper's MO, spend lots of money and lean on past failures into new failures. There has not been a truly fresh start under Tepper yet which explains why he keeps failing. 
    • yeah lol never say it can't get any worse with David Tepper in charge 
    • I would talk poo about their qb room but I'd rather have Darnold and JJ competing for our QB spot than giving BY free reign with no pressure
