The best bet for the Bears from a draft pick point of view is Cousins ends up staying in MN.

Dark horse would be maybe the Giants?

I’m hoping maybe the Raiders but it is probably wishful thinking.

I guess Wilson plans on being the starter in Pitt and then rebuilding his brand. I suppose it was his best choice.

Fields might be forced into a back up role, yikes

If Cousins goes to Atlanta, and Fields somehow ends up in Minny, Minny vs Chicago going to be much watch TV.

Yeah, I mean...that would be similar to the Darnold trade. If it ends up as conditional, I hope it would be at least a 3rd that could become a 2nd.

Saquon has gone from +900 to the Bears a couple days ago, to the Bears being the favorite now at +200. I guess there may be some truth to those rumors.

I think the rumors that CHI is interested are probably founded. But this has happened quite a bit under Poles and when the price gets too high he backs out. Similar to McGlinchey last year.

I wouldn’t expect Pokes to get into a bidding war And it sounds like there is a lot of interest in Barkley.

I do think there are dark horse teams out there we’re rarely mentioning that could be big players. The Seahawks would be another I could see having interest.

ppl willing to take nothing for JF be crazy.. even if you take CW.. why not have an explosive back up in fields for atleast a yr and decline the 5th if thats what u think he is.

That sounds likely. I just saw someone's post that said he is "expected" to get a deal in the $10M range. Would you be on board if that's the cost? I'm not a huge fan of paying RBs, but it would be nice to have an all around back, especially with a rookie QB.

A team is going to need a QB midseason. If Fields is playing a high level, he can be traded mid season.

I feel like the board always suggest something like this. If Fields is playing at a high level mid-season, they wouldn't want to trade him. Also, this is creating a toxic environment on your own team with a new QB. Fields is not a seasoned vet playing at a high level. You're creating controversy in a desperate attempt to gain a 2nd round pick.
