Mike Glennon Expected To Land 14-15 Mil Per Season

[nc0gnet0]

nothing wrong with signing glennon for 3 years assuming pace actually drafts a QB. People act like pace should just draft Watson/trubisky/kizer or whoever and all the sudden the qb spot is solved. All these guys will need time to develop.

You don't sign a FA QB to a 15 mil a year contract and turn around and draft a QB in the first (or even second) round.

Yes they will. And I think they'll develop better getting actual playing time than sitting on the bench. How does starting Glennon for two or three years improve them? You can only learn so much from the sidelines.

 

[SugarWalls]

So you sign hoyer to 10 mil then and leave cap space for no reason? Or do you draft one of these guys knowing fully well they will need time, but force them into a situation where they start and flounder?

they might be 0-16.

thats harder than winning a sb.... the number 1 pick would be nice though..

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Bears don't have much of a choice. Pace is already three years into his 'total rebuild', and still no potential solution to the QB position. I was told that you/NFL teams need to have a solid team established before throwing a young QB into the fire (although I have no idea what that is based on...probably nothing), but with Pace's teams going backward, if the Bears wait another year or two before addressing the QB spot, they might be 0-16.

Hosen for Rosen? :shrug:

action for jackson..


in a trade down after winning pick 1

 

[SugarWalls]

I'm all for the Bears using the #3 pick on a qb, but I don't think it is realistic to think that Watson (or anyone else for that matter) is going to come in and start day 1. If they outplay whoever is there then great. if glennon is meant to be THE solution then pace should be fired.

Imagine what you could get for the #1 overall pick with Darnold sitting there.

bears luck.. not much.. darnold would contract a career ending std..

who putting on the tank this year for dem qbs of 18?? im guessing the jets?

Not really sure what's funny about it. In basically a season of work, he put up respectable numbers. A top 10 defense, a QB with a 2:1 TD/INT ratio, and a couple of new pieces on offense sounds like a team that can be competitive. Looking forward to your next gif though.

Without any protection on a crap O. The 2 years he got starts, Tampa allowed over 3 sacks per game. Under the same conditions McCowns sack rate was higher and he threw more INTs than TDs.

Tampa isn't getting rid of him. They are willing to pay him $8M to stay. The entire bum narrative on Glennon is off.

 

[SugarWalls]

Right, none of those players should be starters so beating one of them would have no bearing on if the player was ready. It would be different if the draft pick beat out someone of some value like glennon or Bradford, or Foles. just imagine how fans heads will explode when the #3 overall pick starts week 1 and does not look ready.

 

[Escobar's Army]

I'm fine with this if we can get him on a two year deal. I know people think he's worthless but a 2 TD-INT ratio and high 80s rating while playing on that TB offense during his first two years in the league warrants another chance to start. If he plays well we get a steal and if not we are positioned to draft one of the actual franchise QB in next year's draft. I'm fine with us building the rest of the team and then adding a QB next year.

same way the fans in la reacted when goff started... :shot:

The QB position needs to be addressed now. There is no potential long term starter on the team. If Pace goes after Glennon and drafts a QB at three it means he is hedging his bet.

You are not going to hit on all your draft picks. And the problem with Pace waiting to year 3 to address the position with anything substantive means he has to be right.

Just the dumb fans. **** them. Smart fans know a young QB will take some lumps and need time to develop.

It means he is an idiot, and is having a knee jerk reaction to his utter incompetence to do anything for the position the preceding two years.

Oooh yes sign Glennon.... another year of mediocrity at the QB position, can't wait.

I think the absolute ceiling of such of a move, if they can add a few more quality players to the defense, would be ending up in a KC/Houston situation with a good defense but not enough play making ability at QB to win in the playoffs.

Then when it's the 2008 Orton Bears again and they realize they need a legit QB to push them over the edge, they'll be back to picking 15-23 every year again and therefore needing to give up multiple years of premium picks to trade up for a more "sure thing" prospect at QB that the Watson/Trubisky/Kizer detractors keep telling us isn't there this year.

Terrible, terrible move.

Mediocre QB play wins championships bruh

 

[dabears70]

Hell if he gets that much, we might as well keep Cutler and try everything possible to get a QB in next years draft. Even the top QBs in this years draft do not overly impress. I would not mind Webb in the second or third round, because we need to still TRY to help the position.

There are rumors that Alshon and the Bears are talking, but that is likely Alshon's Agent trying to push up the price. Right now I would love to see the Bears land Pryor even if it costs MORE than Alshon.

Pryor isn't gonna cost more than Alshon. Pryor will probably be somewhere around the $10-$12 so would you rather have Pryor around those prices or Alshon at $14-$16??
