Going to be fucking hilarious around here if the Bears have no plans on trading Fields......

Fields sucks
Can't even get a 5th for Fields.
Raiders prefer Minshew over Fields
etc....etc....etc

What a bunch of losers.

The NFL clearly doesn't think so. You are free to disagree.

I'll quit posting the same gif as soon as all y'all quit positing the same ass spew from talking heads that have absolutely no idea what Poles and the Bears are doing.

Seems like you need to spend a few hours off the internet and chill in the kitten petting room. Take care.
You're on your own, pussy.

Poles can't force another team to start him. Anyone looking to do that would offer up at least 3rd plus. Maybe Poles fucked him by insisting on a 2nd but that would go against his stated intentions. Who knows but there's way too much chatter from normally informed sources in various cities and nationally to think he wasn't offered up.
Although Poles does seem to keep his cards very close to his chest. Still agree with you though.

Seattle, New Oleans, Giants as a backup. We will probably have to settle for a 4th or 5th
Fuck that.

For that price, try him out as a WR. He certainly can take the top off the defense.

Green text minus the 'fuck that'.

my point was the colts will not be trading for fields

explain why its okay for Fields to be the backup to a guy who is basically a rookie in AR15 in your mind, but not okay for him to be the backup for a rookie in chicago??

Because half the fan base here is convinced he is H1M. This is a fucking disaster

At least with the Colts he could come in and compete on an even playing surface. Here the noise is insane. I can’t even imagine camp at this point. Probably have fights in the stands. 😂

He may get a comp pick if there is more interest due to a weaker QB class and not having to trade for him.

We dont know if it will be awkward or not. At the end of the day everyone in the NFL likely has Caleb as the No 1 pick and Fields as not worthy of 2nd so he has no cause to make it akward unless he is an idiot. The NFL has spoken. He is a clear backup at this point unless something changes.
He won't get a comp pick for a one year prove it deal which is exactly what it looks like he will get if he becomes a FA.

And we've already seen the locker room openly back Fields. Why even risk making the locker room messy?

For fuck's sake @remydat, did you becomes a Bears fan yesterday and not consider how fast the fans and team turn to the back up QB in Chicago?

The fans have zero say what goes on....their only job is to buy tickets and merch.

The Bears will do what they believe is best for their long term health and winning

With these contacts being given out on the D-line, I don't see how we get Hunter for any less than $25m AAV, assuming we're even in on him.
Yep. $25M per year is kinda what I was thinking

Poles/the Bears are gonna play this like, "There was a lot of calls coming in about Fields, but no offers that made sense for the Bears. We really like Fields and his potential, but we are still doing our homework on the rookie QBs, so we don't want to rush into any decision."

Then trade him for a 5th rounder a couple of weeks later.

This is not healthy. If you can’t see it then I don’t know what to say.

Or maybe they just never planned on trading fields and all the rumors were BS.'

I'm guessing its not that, but none of us know shit. No one has ever really came out and said the bears are knowingly shopping fields to teams.
