LET’S GOOOOOO!!!!

Basically just waiting on Garry Cobb to confirm

Weird

Trade Burns and save us our future 1st rounders. Fitterer gets a mulligan on the deal he should’ve made at the deadline We save 16 mill against the cap this year for Burns. Save another 13 cutting Shaq. All of a sudden we have some room. There’s a potential Burns replacement. Will be a lot cheaper. Obviously you’re sacrificing a bit but if this gets you the QB you want then it’s worth it

DJ of Burns DJ hasn’t been restructured yet and maybe that’s why. Chicago seems to struggle at finding WR’s. Although trading away your only WR before drafting a rookie QB isn’t ideal either Although finding WR’s these days shouldn’t be as hard as some of these teams make it out to be

He was my pick to go 1st overall this draft before the season Then this season happened where he didn’t progress in any area at all. Still can’t process, doesn’t throw with anticipation, pocket awareness is non existent and he gets hurt a lot. Rocket launcher of an arm is cool and all but that only gets you so far.

Of course the Rams would like to trade their highly paid QB whose shoulder is in shambles

https://larrybrownsports.com/football/matthew-stafford-cant-throw-retirement/612331?amp If these idiots are dumb enough to trade for Stafford after last season then we are so f’d

All depends on what Houston is willing to give up and if Carolina is still willing to send the house for #2 Although if Carolina doesn’t trade up to 2 someone else will It is possible Carolina would send more to go from 9 to 1 than Chicago would receive trading down twice with other teams but of course that would all depend on how Chicago values each teams picks Houston and Indy may not want to part with future 1’s to each move up 1-2 spots. Atlanta might though. Carolina absolutely would. So if Poles wants those 2024 and 2025 1st rounders the only way to guarantee that may be dealing with Carolina

Jimmy G is f’n trash.

I got Stroud to go 1st at +400 and I‘m banking on Chicago picking 9th and got JSN going there for +2200

That’s who I keep coming back to when I watch Levis. Sam f’n Darnold. All the tools in the world but can’t process sh!t. That’s a hard thing to be able to just start doing while playing in the NFL. He rarely shows the ability to throw with anticipation on top of that. Pocket awareness is sh!t too.

He was my dude prior to this season but holy hell I couldn’t want less to do with him after watching him play this year

Yep I think once the smoke clears we’re stuck with Levis I know they’re desperately trying to get to 1 but I’m not sure it happens

Richardson’s floor is Seattle Next question

I dunno… If for whatever reason we can’t land a QB I’d at least talk about the Johnson/Skoronski route Offensive tackles under rookie contracts are the next most valuable thing. The Giants were set up nicely with Thomas and Neal until they decided to take that money and use it on Jones lol Moton’s cap hit shoots up to 24 for the next 3 seasons Christensen and Corbett both suffered injuries and Corbett most likely won’t be ready to start the season. Cade Mays should be able to fill in at RG but Christensen is far from great. I’m not advocating we do this, I want to sell the farm for the 1st overall pick but if we can’t get QB it’s at the very least worth discussing Again, to be clear, I want a f’n QB and would do anything to get one (and sounds like Scott is willing to do so too) but if we can’t then yeah… I’m sure as sh!t not spending another top 10 pick on a cornerback at 9 so rule all those out for me

He actually just turned 26

Not sure what the advantage is to leaking this if you haven’t secured a top spot in the draft At some point when you’re just bidding against yourself and already have offered up 400 picks to move up to 1 you might wanna be able to say “maybe we’ll check in with Lamar” before offering pick 401

If we do end up at 1 I believe most of the mock trades floating around with pick compensation going to Chicago will seem very light versus what we actually give up

Again, getting to 1 isn’t a for sure thing. There are no FA QB’s available that are the answer long term. Fitterer isn’t in a position to sit and wait come draft night I’m all for throwing picks at Chicago until they say yes because it’s time so don’t think I’m against any of this I’m just telling you the pickle we’re in and the pressure Fitterer is under to deliver

The Bears should sign Brown Jr and McGary and trade with us at 9 and take JSN This doesn’t have to be hard

But Fitterer isn’t in a position to sit and hope someone falls to him that’s the problem here This whole things is a mess… again
