Looks like maybe it isn't that they don't believe in Feilds but rather, Eberflus is running the show when it comes to rebuilding this team...


Thoughts?


Prayers?

Im sure Flus just wanted to get the BPAs at those picks. So did the GM. Not to mention or secondary was asscheeks last yr.

That exec is reaching because it fits the narrative.

Eberflus didn't sabotage anything. This is expected when you hire a defensive minded coach. They have pride in establishing their side of the ball and they stick with what they know.

At the end of the day Poles makes the final decision. And going defense doesn't mean the draft was sabotaged. We got the two best players on the board.

People might complain this year. But when you consider the amount of cap space we have next season and the draft capital we have in tact, there was no reason to reach. We will get some nice pieces next offseason. Just gotta build with what talent we have now.

Well it is a new day and with that comes a new Sports Mockery article. One of these times the guy is going to actually write a decent article.

I have a difficult time believing that this guy would get paid millions of dollars to do his dream job and the first thing he does is intentionally sabotage that.
That's like getting hired as a writer by Sports Mockery and the first article you write is about how bad it is to work there.

An unnamed exec says it and Lambert reports it. Enough said that this is BS

Justin Fields is not the Chicago Bears - get over it.
What does that have to do with this thread?

Also, is this your only take in like every thread?

Seems like you're #obsessed and might be the guy who needs to "get over it."


Thanks!

A new defensive-minded coach ends up getting two defensive players for his new scheme at positions that didn't even have NFL caliber starters - shocking ??

Ppl still crying about Justin not getting weapons...then they drafted a wr in the 3rd...one Justin liked.

I doubt he intentionally sabotaged the draft--that would be sabotaging his own job.

I just think he addressed the defense because that's what he's comfortable with and that'll probably be this team's calling card. You can agree or disagree with prioritizing the defense, I personally disagree, but there's no way Eberflus "sabotaged" the draft.

Interestingly enough, several offensive players came off the board shortly after each of the Bears picks, so maybe the problem was with the Bears board?

The exec was none other than the highly decorated GM of 19 FFL teams and commissioner in exile, @dabears70. da70 went on to say thatif he was NFL commissioner he would have rejected the pick as unfair in his infinite wisdom.

Thankfully we will only have to wait 3 months to be filled in on every draft pick in DB's FFLs shortly before the NFL season.

We need a Lambert jar. Every time you post something from him you need to put a quarter in it. At the end of the year we can send fruit baskets with the proceeds.

I don't blame Lambert for doing his job and adding more content.
I blame the idiots who think this content actually means anything.
