Bryce Young can completely change the narrative around this by the end of the year. Hopefully he does.

That being said some people (they know who they are) are borderline living a fantasy downplaying the current outlook on this trade until then.

Yeah the average defense is, “Well, what’s done is done, time to move on”.  Wonder if Fitt tried that line before he got sacked lol.

What the Bears do is irrelevant.  

If Young works out, the trade was worth it.  If not, it wasn't.  

We will have the a first round pick next year.  As the saying goes..."SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP!" We had a chance and we blew it to keep Burns, and what did it get us. A low performance player for last season and a 2nd and 5th rd picks this year. Tepper gambled and lost.

I would say Fitz blew it and lost, but the end result is the same.  

IMO, turning down the trade meant we should have signed Burns right away.  If you have a choice of trading for two first round picks or resigning a player, and you choose the latter, nothing is gained by waiting.  If you wait, you end up with a lot less which is what happened.

We have the worst team in the NFL by far and the worst QB as well. You don't need to twist the knife and remind me that we had the dumbest GM in NFL history who ran this franchise into the ground, and that's not even mentioning Darnold and refusing to trade Burns for two 1sts and a 2nd. Fitt why did you do this to us? I hope you fail in all your future endeavors.

The trade is over and it is what it is…nothing is getting worse people need to stop with the drama

They have Keenan Allen, they have DJ Moore, they will have Caleb Williams…

 

then they have a haul of picks the next two years to play with to build. 
 

it is getting worse. 
 

id rather have Drake Maye though. he’s going to win offensive rookie of the year.

What if he doesn't change the narrative completely? Just looks like Teddy B at his ceiling? Not a complete bust but not worth the trade?

I assume he's done in the NFL after his stint as a GM here.

      Another, Another Bryce Breakdown

      Fair, sure.  Still not worthy of the #1 pick and still has major issues.  And you absolutely have to be concerned that for bryce to make a nfl caliber throw the conditions have to be optimal around him.  And those sacks around the 10 minute mark are just brutal to watch.

      But his arm wasn't destroyed due to his throwing motion, it was from essentially two hits / injuries.  Tackle to prevent a pick 6 due to a lazy Benjamin route in 2016.  That was the start of having to be on a pitch count in practice.  2018 TJ Watt hit after Cam had already adjusted his mechanics and was having his best year statistically speaking, although I remember even that year questioning if he can still sling it deep.

      Arm elasticity and arm strength are not the same thing.  There are some who have great arm strength but can't deliver off platform throws, sidearm, etc,  due to lack of elasticity.  I am concerned about Bryce's arm strength to deliver the ball when the anticipation throws aren't there and you simply need to fire a ball into a tight window.  Not sure that can ever be part of this game.  He does have good arm elasticity which is what made him special in college, throwing the ball on the move, that should serve him well in the NFL especially when he gets outside of the pocket.  My biggest concern is standing in the pocket, pressure in the face and not being able to set his feet will affect him more than others due to his height and arm strength.
