seafoam1 396 Posted February 14 Good Bye SB. Later!. Now let's get down to the fun. Will be the most talked about team in the offseason. Almost double the #2 most salary cap available team (Atlanta), and #1 pick and they don't need a QB. This will be fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 446 Posted February 14 I would argue they do need a QB but hey..... thats just me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 1,796 Posted February 14 I think they need a Qb. Going to have the same problem that the Ravens now have. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's why; they'll get an immediate upgrade at QB on a cheaper, longer rookie deal. Take the picks that they get from Fields and flip them into the offensive line. There, I just solved all of the Bears problem with one move. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(doubtful) With so many teams in need of a QB I think they could easily get a 2nd round pick for him, especially since he's on a rookie deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fields has a brighter future than anyone in this draft. Bryce Young has to be Drew Brees to succeed and that is a tall order. Stroud? Who the heck knows? He's afraid to leave college. Maybe the dude from Kentucky can show up but no one knows of the bunch. I'm sticking with Fields. Let's see if Poles feels the same way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 1,796 Posted February 15 Bears fans need to either embrace the fact that Fields will be their Qb , or not. I think one is embracing an avg Qb at best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This kind of reminds me of when foamy was in denial about Mitchy, and defensively assured us that Mitchy was just as good as Mahomes and Watson, who Da Bears passed over.

Is Jussie the latest embarrassment for the Bears and Seafoam? Stay tuned... well, part of the problem is the team doesnt seem to do very well at developing their young QB's and putting them in a position to succeed. to that end they ruin a lot of their top draft picks. while they do need a QB I honestly dont know if thats the right path for this team. they do such a terrible job of developing the QB they do draft maybe the right move is to sign the best free agent they can, trade fields for an O lineman or a pick that can be used on the same. then use the top pick to get a stud defender or trade down for a handful of picks and fill all the holes in the lineup. This may actually be the best path forward for the bears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've lost your mind. There are at least 3 QBs in this draft with much better pedigrees. You have to do more than run around like a chicken with your head cut off to be a good NFL QB.

Unlike Fields all 3 are great at making 2nd and 3rd reads, seeing the field, etc. They are also great at anticipation routes. Fields locks in and if that one guy isn't open he runs for it.
