The Bears talking to Roman definitely looks like they're thinking of keeping Fields........or trying to mask it to look like they're considering keeping Fields. This is lying season after all.
If anyone thinks it's even remotely a decision whether to keep Fields or take Caleb, that right there puts his value in the 1st round range, to that person or team at least. While a lot think Fields can't get past his first few reads, some seem to think he still has star potential.
There are teams that need QB's badly and wont be in position to take any of the top 3 guys. I could see Fields being more desired than Penix Jr. for example - and he stands a good chance of being QB #4.
For a return from Fields, even if you cant get a 1st, if you get a 2nd and say its from Atlanta, where is a high 2nd and basically replaces the pick traded for Montez Sweat, that's great. Though if they hire Belichick, I doubt Fields is the route they go.
I want the Bears to draft Caleb. But if for whatever reason they decide to move that pick - to me it better start with at least 4 1sts - or the equivalent in value.
