Chicago has never had a WR as good as DJ Moore

This is a good deal for us but no doubt this helps the Bears as well.  They may end up with Jalen Carter at 9 anyway.  Or they can help their OL.  This helps them

Bears have no OL.  No matter who your WRs are if QB is on his ass every 3 seconds after snap.  Fields took more pounding in first 2 years in Chicago than Kardashian did over the last 30 years.

Yea but according to the context of the title and thread, Moose in Chicago wasn’t as good as DJ. If it said “Chicago has never gotten a WR from Carolina as good as DJ” then yea, Moose could be argued. 

Ok but DJ in Chicago may not be as good as DJ in Carolina...

Since Cam and Luke left, there really hasn’t been any panther players that I’ve felt a connection with. DJ was one of those players for me, and I’m going to miss him. With that being said, I’m ecstatic about this trade and I’m ok with DJ being involved in the trade.

People who expect to see DJ put up 1500+ yards and make us look stupid for trading him have no grasp of history, or physics for that matter.

There is a reason that Chicago has never had an elite passer or receiver in there ~100 year history. When Moose supposedly said, "Chicago is where WRs go to die" it wasn't meant as a facetious statement.

You can't play 8-9 games per season in an open stadium in the "Windy City" and expect to have a top level passing attack. The reason that Da Bears have a reputation for smash mouth football is that is the only style that consistently works in that stadium.

It’s a tweet by somebody who isn’t a Carolina Huddler. It’s not us overvaluing him.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
