The Panthers might not win another game until next season. The Bears will probably win a couple more games pushing them out of the top 5. Harrison will not fall out of the top 5. We guarantee ourselves a WR who has a good chance of being the next Jefferson/Chase. DJ Moore and MH would look mighty fine next season. We can spend our actual pick on OL or DL.

The infatuation this sub has with MHJ is insane. I understand that he might be a generational player at the position, but until we have the QB situation figured out…it doesn’t matter. We need an answer with Fields, and if he’s not it…we are absolutely taking Caleb/Maye with that first pick. MHJ will be gone top 3.
As someone in a previous thread said, if you think it’ll happen, MHJ is +2000 to go #1.
But reality is a thing and the Bears are taking either Caleb or Maye #1.
Yes because MHJ is not worth more than the trade package we got from CAR (which included a #1 WR)
You could possibly get Crosby and 3 1st round picks out of the Raiders in a trade this year.
A franchise QB is worth more than the package we got from CAR (when you don’t have a QB).
My unpopular opinion amongst Redditors, but not actual football experts is that if the Bears get two top five picks, they need to move #1 to some team that desperately needs a QB (the Bears don’t) get a lower pick and maybe a player or two that can help immediately. There are far too many holes on the team (especially the sieve like defense) that can’t be fixed by adding Harrison or a new QB. You have the high picks, get the most bang for your buck in terms of quantity of upper echelon picks. There are many, many areas that need reinforcement. The defensive line (pass rush) the offensive line (Bears QB still running for their lives) and the defensive back field. Mahomes, Goff, Wilson, and others picked the secondary apart. Part of that is because of poor pass rush, but coverage was bad in those losses too.
I think Poles is hoping whoever finished 2 or 3 wants to move up to take a QB. That way he can trade down for additional picks. Otherwise, Poles may want to take a QB.
The only way we do that is if we run it back with the trifecta of Poles, Flus, and Fields all staying.
A brand new coach is not going to want to come in and tie his career to a year 4 Fields and pass on an opportunity to start fresh with a first overall QB.
I think we should trade our top five picks for two sets of hauls. I feel like there are enough good players in this draft that we’ll be able to have our cake and eat it too.
