kinda scary when your new GM has the #1 pick. can f*** it up or set us up
Unprecedented cap space, multiple QB needy teams in the top 5 and the top 10 while the team seemingly has their QB for the future, and the top 2 ranked QBs finished their season with excellent games.

Should be fun.

And the Bears options here seem like a no-brainer for me. And before I say anything let me repeat my stance on Fields…. I’m still not convinced in him. But that being said, this isn’t a draft where you want to draft a QB super early unless you’re absolutely desperate at that position, and there are teams that are desperate. Trading down if someone offers you a haul makes a helluva lot of sense.
 
Gonna come down to if Poles really likes Young/Stroud over Fields or not. But ima say 99% chance Bears are trade either the pick or Fields come the draft.

I stole this list from another site, but it gives a rough idea of possible trade down areas. And this list of draft order is not final:

1 Bears
2 Texans (need a QB)
3 Seahawks (need a QB)
4 Cardinals
5 Colts (need a QB)
6 Lions
7 Raiders (need a QB)
8 Falcons (need a QB)
9 Panthers (need a QB)
10 Eagles
11 Titans (need a QB)
12 Texans (2ND PICK)
13 Jets (need a QB)
14 Commanders
15 Patriots

It's a weird draft, in that you can probably name 4 or 5 guys right now that have a chance at being selected #1. So while that isn't necessarily good for the Bears if they want to trade down. All it takes is one team falling massively in love with one of these guys.

Ideal situation is that one qb moves to the top of the pack, and Seattle leapfrogs Houston. We’d still get one of the big 2 defensive players, along with the rest of the haul.

I'm trying to think of the most Bears thing to do. Trading Fields, drafting a QB with the #1 pick, and then watching Fields become a hall of famer, while the QB they draft at #1 busts, is the most Bears thing imaginable. So that's what I'm going with until they prove otherwise. I won't be excited about this #1 pick until the Bears don't f*** it up.

It's sad, but it seems like a very Bears scenario.

It is my understanding that all 3 qbs have suitors. Since you’re all dreaming here is mine.

Rd1 pk1. To Houston for 1/2 - 1/12 - 2/34
Rd1 pk 2 to Seattle for 1/3 - 1/19 - 2/36
Rd1 pk 3 to Indy for 1/5 - 2/37 - r1/2024.

Bears pick 5 - 12 - 19 - 34 - 36 - 37 - 55 - 65.

I know it wouldn’t happen but it would fill holes.
