How much would it cost to move up to #1 or would the bears just take Harrison Jr 1?

Thats a pass from me. Thats expensive
Yeah NO. We don’t need to do that. Do your valuations. If Maye/Daniels aren’t close to Williams, then prob trade down. Atlanta is a terrific partner. They’ve got a ton of draft capital. And are seemingly a young QB away from being …. Something.
I'm not sure I would trade anything for CW, and the idea of KK and CW reunited spells an offense which doesn't operate as it should. It never did in USC. Why would it here? CW is an off script improviser. Combining him with the coach that let him do that spells disaster to me.
I'd much rather have KK, Drake Maye, and all that extra draft capital. Truth is DM is much more of a KK type of QB than CW is.

In a little wary of Kingsbury. He tried to push the envelope in AZ and they ultimately ran a lot of creative junk that doesn’t really fly at the NFL level.

NFL Rumors: Ben Johnson Saw Commanders Execs as 'Basketball Guys,' Was 'Turned Off' — Bleacher Report
Josh Harris was already the governor of the Philadelphia 76ers when he led a group that purchased the Washington Commanders, and that basketball background…

Not great…
NFL Rumors: Ben Johnson Saw Commanders Execs as 'Basketball Guys,' Was 'Turned Off'
ESPN's Jenna Laine provided more background for the Washington decision and noted Johnson was "turned off" by the team's ownership, which he viewed as "basketball guys" who were "a little too confident in their football opinions."
Meh.

What else is he going to say? “I got cold feet and was sheltering myself?”
Didn’t you post the “Johnson….only wanted Chargers job…. Etc etc”? Maybe that was someone else.
I am over Brian Johnson.
And thankfully we won’t have to ever say HCBJ or Coach BJ or simply BJ ….or anything of the sort.
So that’s a win?
Interesting, no information whatsoever on why he turned down the Seahawks but the ‘skins basketball guys were too confident in their football ideas. I guess Peters wasn’t involved in any of those discussions, which makes all the sense in the world…NFL Rumors: Ben Johnson Saw Commanders Execs as 'Basketball Guys,' Was 'Turned Off' — Bleacher Report

That's a weird he/she said type of thing. Is he making excuses?
Were the owners actually in the meeting talking incessantly about their NBA ownership strategies and that "turned him off" for some reason?
Did he think he was going to be forced to run the WFT like the 76ers or Clippers or Lakers?
Or is this code for "they wanted to tank for 3yrs to build up draft picks like they did in Philly and I'm not down with that, I was just in the friggin NFC championship game ffs"?
Either way, he was clearly not all-in so f*** him.
As for Quinn, he sounds like a good candidate to be a solid .500 coach or better here but I'm still wary of all the praise heaped on DAL defense last year, as their SOS was weak af for most of the year. We'll see.

I don't care about BJ and never have, so this stuff is only relevant to me in sussing out what Ownership's mentality is.
Parsons really seems to love DQ. Could use him in DC.

BJ acted unprofessionally and instead of facing the music for it, his camp whines to the media to justify it.
Move on, loser. We already did.

Interesting to hear from someone who apparently just threw DQ under the bus after the packers game
Parsons? Do you have the sound bite for that? Genuinely curious to hear / read it because he’s been nothing but effusive in praising Quinn from everything I read.
In this article he trashes the coaches, game planning and play calling. Its behind an add blocker stopper so it may not be easy to view.
Better link:
Micah Parsons breaks silence: defends Dak Prescott, criticizes Cowboys’ defensive scheme
Micah Parsons had some criticism for Dan Quinn’s defense against the Packers: “We were just outperformed out schemed, they had an answer for everything.

Doesn't really seem like him stabbing Quinn in the back or anything. He was asked why he wasn't playing LB and he answered the question truthfully:
Seems more like him answering questions about his own lack of impact and how he performed, and giving credit to the other team, vs going barrels blasting at the coaches.
I don't see any other way to look at "we were out schemed" than to say the defensive game plan was inadequate. I guess we can all see what we want to see. Read the yahoo article I added... the author adds their own commentary that "Parsons appeared to blame the scheme of defensive coordinator Dan Quinn for not being prepared and not using him more at linebacker in a game in which the Cowboys couldn’t stop the run or the pass." so its not like I'm the only one coming to this conclusion.
