What do you think they do? I think there’s a pretty good chance the Carolina pick is #1. I fear they might scratch out a few wins and move back with their own pick.
MHJ is without question the best prospect IMO. I’d take him at #1 unless…some team is willing to sell the farm for Caleb Williams or Maye. That being said I’m not sold on either of those two. Take MHJ and the best OL on the board with the second pick.
If a team is sold on Caleb or Maye…trade back. I really think there’s a chance that Penix, Nix, or Jayden end up being more serviceable NFL QBs and that gives you the excuse to sit them behind Fields for at least a year while you re-evaluate with a new coaching staff.
TLDR: I think there’s a near zero percent chance the Bears draft a QB at 1, nor should they.
The meltdown on this sub when they realize that this team is drafting a qb with a top pick next year is going to be glorious to watch.
If the bears draft a qb, these Fields stans will be in here nitpicking every mistake the rookie makes
I’m not a Fields Stan by any means, but I do root for whoever is under center for the Bears whether it be Bagent, Trubisky, Fields whoever it is.
I’m not opposed to the idea of drafting Maye or Williams, but I’m not gonna root for a player who isn’t even on our team yet lol
Why not root for the guy we currently have till the end of the year and if we change QB’s, root for the next guy. It’s that simple. If you’re rooting for Fields to fail, then you’re just as bad as the people who would root for Caleb or Maye to do bad here just to prove a point
It’ll honestly become apparent before draft day even. Let’s say they have the first pick and trade down, that just automatically tells me that they’re not going the QB route. We will probably know the answer to the question by next March.
As of right now there isn’t a right answer obviously and both opinions are valid and have their advantages and disadvantages
There is a right answer lol, Fields hasn’t shown any signs of consistency and has only marginally improved year over year. Yes he has 7 games to show that he’s suddenly become a star QB, I could also bang margot robbie but neither is happening.
