Khalil Mack anyone?

Gruden is on a long term contract and already had enough money to be set for life. It allows him to think a little more long term than most coaches. 

The NFC is quickly becoming the NBA's Western conferences with the Patriots playing the role of the LeBron era Cavs in the East.

Two firsts plus a third and sixth? 

Son of a b--ch!

So is he going to be a stand up LB now?

And it’s the Bears picks...could be very high picks.  Still...losing Mack is tough.

If the bears can be good enough to make their 2020 pick a late first and the Raiders 2020 second is high its basically a wash.

Matt Nagy, the Bears  first year head coach was the OC with KC. He knows first hand what it is to game plan for Mack twice a year and was probably a reason they pulled the trigger.

They got a 2nd back though. Has potential to only be dropping a few spots.

If they had just given up just the two firsts and gotten a second back, I would have understood it better. The extras skew it too much for my taste.

If you're a Bears fan, you gotta hope Mack is worth all that.

I don't hate it from a Bears perspective. I think the NFL has long overvalued 1st round picks. The chances of those turns players becoming ANYWHERE near Mack as far as production is slim. And you get him in his prime. The reason I wouldve hesitated to make the trade is because of the contract, so I like it from The Raiders perspective too.

As someone who gas witnessed the drafting of Ryan Pace, Mack is worth it lol.

The Bears raped the Raiders IMO. With a rookie contract QB, they're going all-in betting they can become the Rams and win before they have to pay Mitch. The trade...

Mack, a HoF level player, AND what will probably be a pick around 35-40

For

Two picks in the 15-24 range.  

 

Laughably bad for the Raiders IMO unless they absolutely nail those draft picks.

Look on the brightside the Bears might give the Packers and Vikings more trouble to help out other NFC teams. NFCS were already gonna beat up on each other good that the NFCN might do the same.
