Fields ... good choice imo, I think they got an absolute steal, though I'm not sure I have much confidence in that staff to do much. Having Allen Robinson will help though.

Robinson will be confused by having a decent QB for once in his life.

I'm not scared of Jones frankly.

I'm not really either; but I dont think many were scared of Brady either. I just don't want to see them get anyone decent even :lol:

There goes Fields. Now; lets have someone take Jones before NE gets the chance.

With our luck, NE will find a way to trade for Aaron Rodgers, lol

Good move Bears

Why would you put that out into the universe?!?

Oh, I don’t think he’s going anywhere, lol

Slater won't drop will he?

Parsons gone. I was intrigued to see where he was going to end up with his off the field stuff that came out.

Wonder if there's a chance for Minny to take Jones away from NE and end the Cousins era

I wonder if this becomes a trend, how Bears ownership are letting their GM/Coach try a second QB. Usually you don't get that chance.

I consider it a fluke, not the start of a trend; but imagine being a Bears fan today? Rodgers wants out, and you get a QB steal in the draft.

if slater somehow drops, you take it

Would have to get above the Chargers and Vikings I think.

How are you getting the picks ahead of the networks?

I hope the Bears moving up for what we assume to be a QB here triggers another team to move up ahead of the Pats for the remaining QB

I’m fine with the Patriots getting Mac Jones. Lol

Glad they didn’t get Fields.

More worried they might draft Paye away from us!

Twitter likely. There's nothing worse than people tipping picks on draft day IMO.

I was hoping that somehow Parsons would drop to 18...oh well

"texanphinatic wrote:

You could say the same for WR too, not that Smith is an option any longer.

I don't disagree in general, but my thought process is that it's a second first round pick, it's OK to reach a bit and just solve the position by taking a Harris. I'm 100% done screwing around with Jordan Howard types.

C at 50? Who? I think the top 3-4 are off the board.

Bears trading up for a QB, fields or jones?

I'm thinking/hoping that the top 3rd or 4th one is still there. It's a risk, but if they are gone, I'd go DE/LB. We may get another Center later in free agency, as teams cut players closer to the season.

I gotta imagine Chargers will take Slater. If not I hope he falls to us.

If Fields works out, Detroit will never live it down lol. I was kind of surprised they didn't pull the trigger really, but I think they are targetting next year. That's a multi-year rebuild there.

Just watching the draft coverage over here in the UK. Didn't realise I was ahead of the networks. My bad, I'll hold off from now on. I purposely avoid Social Media on nights like this because I dislike the spoilers.

Two OLmen Moehrig...still all the edge guys there. Good spot to be in

You must be popular at parties, JK, I hope they don't trade for Rodgers.

Lmao

Slater gone, solid and unsurprising move by the Chargers. Like the suit!

With how quick we have been to move on from players this year, I would say no position is out of the realms of possibility at 18. Looking at who's left though, I'm leaning towards tackle, especially as the plan seems to be to move Hunt inside, but I know a lot of people who were saying the pick was Waddle this morning was also saying Paye at 18.
