Has any team ever had the #1 and #2 pick?

One thing that really stands out - and it sounds like a size bro complaint because it is - is Cam was so big, that defenders had to try to wrap him up around the midsection to get him down. That gave Cam the opportunity to try to make a play while being contacted. In the play at 1:22 in that video, Cam ends up making a throw with a defender wrapped around his waist like a tutu. I just don't see how Bryce will ever be able to make a throw with a defender hanging off him. Hell, I don't presently see how he can take a hit without fumbling.

No...but things similarly to this are not surprising lately. Texans had 2 and 3 last draft and it looks to be paying off and a couple teams had 2 picks in the first round. If im the bears i keep them. Getting the 2 top overall players on your roster is a rich that is extremely rare.

Wow not thought about this. They could grab Caleb Williams and then trade for someone who wants Maye for a Kings Ransome

They need multiple defensive linemen. So they have two routes to go:

1. Fields sucks the rest of the year and they draft Caleb first overall. Second pick is to trade back for defensive lineman plus extra picks. 
2. Fields doesn’t keep up with what he just did this week but he looks improved and they stick with him. The defense continues to be ass because they don’t get any pressure on any QB - Bears trade first overall pick for Caleb-takers and then Bears trade second overall pick to move back and accrue like 5 to 6 total first and second rounders. Spend those picks between this year and next on defenders or flip some of the picks for top tier defenders about to be up for contracts. 
 

There’s a lot of flexibility there. Heck, the nightmare scenario is they draft Williams first overall and then follow it up with Marvin Harrison Jr. but that doesn’t fix how putrid their pass rush is. They have a good secondary when healthy, and their linebackers aren’t terrible. But they get zero pressure on QBs and get picked apart. 
 

Houston had picks 2 and 3 this year and flipped that into Stroud who looks like a good QB and Anderson who looks like a good DE. Bears need to hit on both players like that.

My god this is depressing. It’s like divorcing your spouse only to find out a week after you left them  they won the lottery. 

Just for the record, I saw that happen in real time when back when I was in the Army. It was glorious. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy or a more heartless woman.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
