I am comforted in the fact that I know Chicago is going to blow these two picks somehow. 

not even Chicago can mess this up. Those first 2 picks are gold. They can absolutely do a 180 with those picks. Caleb first. Trade out of #2 far just far enough to still get Harrison. And still have extra day 2 picks to play with - enough to move back into the first again.

meh.  Just draft Caleb and Harrison Jr.  The trading out of it is where Chicago would end up screwing it all up.

I'm still a fan, this sucking would sting less if we had all of our draft assets though. If they dont win a couple games after the bye week I'll be ready to blow up the front office starting with Fitterer since he built this team.

Honestly, I was a solid Fitt supporter, but he has not only supported some questionable personnel decisions over his tenure, he supported the hiring of Reich which was about the most lackluster hire imaginable. I'm ready to fire both right now.

I can tolerate being beaten - that's the nature of life, giving it your all and still coming up short sometimes. What has drained me the most is the string of very obvious and easily-avoidable missteps that Tepper has made since taking ownership. Hanging on to Rivera and Hurney in 2018 into 2019, hiring Rhule and giving him complete control, interjecting himself into the QB situation at the end of 2020, keeping Rhule into 2022, hiring Reich (a good guy but a lame hire)... and that's not touching on the personnel items during that time, which aren't necessarily Tepper's fault directly but are the result of these missteps.

Like I tell my kids, I just can't support braindead behavior.

Oh yes they can. Any QB drafted by the Bears is just doomed. History demands it.

The fact that were still here on this message board despite this likely being the franchises 6th losing season in a row automatically means we're still fans

We lost a lot of those 2015 bandwagoners a long time ago. 

If you truly were not a fan or didn't care, you wouldn't watch the games or spend time arguing about them here

    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together. 
    • Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
