What about Newman?
He was a bit of a mess from what I can see. He had a good first day and then started missing WRs and throwing picks.

Sounds like a Bear to me.He was a bit of a mess from what I can see. He had a good first day and then started missing WRs and throwing picks.
Here's mine from First-Pick.com:
clancyphile's Chicago Bears Draft Results 2/2/2021
Check out clancyphile's draft as GM of the Chicago Bears. Pretty good, eh? Think you can do better?first-pick.com
Round 2 Pick 10 (NYG): Terrace Marshall, WR, LSU - Either plays opposite A-Rob, or replaces him
Round 2 Pick 20: Josh Myers, C/OG, Ohio State - Backup for C/OG
Round 2 Pick 26 (BALT): Jackson Carman, OG/OT, Clemson - RT from Day One
Round 3 Pick 2 (NYJ): Tedarrell Slaton, DT, Florida - Eventual Hicks replacement
Round 3 Pick 12 (NYG): Daniel Faalele, OT, Minnesota - Eventual replacement for Leno at LT
Round 3 Pick 19: Cameron McGrone, ILB/OLB, Michigan - Trvethan's eventual replacement
Round 3 Pick 40 (BALT): Chuba Hubbard, RB, Oklahoma State - #2 RB behind Montgomery
Round 4 Pick 2 (NYJ): Jamie Newman, QB, Georgia - Developmental QB
Round 4 Pick 26 (BALT): Dante Stills, DT, West Virginia - Replaces Urban
Round 5 Pick 20: Tariq Castro-Fields, CB, Penn State - Help for DB
Round 6 Pick 20: Merlin Robertson, DE/OLB, Arizona State - Developmental talent
Round 6 Pick 34 (COMP): Nate Landman, ILB/OLB, Colorado - Backup ILB
Round 6 Pick 39 (COMP): Eli Stove, WR, Auburn - to push Ridley/Wims
Round 7 Pick 4: Obi Eboh, CB, UCLA - maybe a ST guy
If the Bears keep A-Rob and Trubisky, then the offense is improved. The A-Rob/Marshall/Mooney trio at WR will be very good, especially when combined with the Graham/Kmet duo at TE and Montgomery/Hubbard at RB.
Then, there is the O-Line improvements. Myers provides depth at C and OG. Carman replaces Massie at RT. Faalele is the developmental guy to replace Leno at LT. Maybe Faalele forces the issue sooner, especially with a power-run offense. 400 pounds should make for excellent run blocking, minimum.
Slaton and Stills provide youth on the D-Line, and McGrone, Robertson, and Landman should do the same at LB. I traded down for quantity... and given Pace's rep for finding late-round talent that contributes... I think it works.
One can dreamHere's a way out there mock draft with way out there and sketchy trades from Bears Goggles on.

A+ draft grade. Did it with max speed. Suck it, losers.
This team needs the biggest QB competition the NFL has ever seen if they want to be taken seriously as a place where QBs can thrive. Steel sharpens steel. Keep the 3-4 best QBs and then trade the rest for 2nd round picks. I can see Chicago going from a QB desert to the place the rest of the NFL goes to trade for promising QBs. This draft just sets them up to get value long term developing all of the QB. It can be a QB camp for pros.I really hate to drop a dislike, but that's too many QBs. We'd end up waiving some of them.
To be honest, if Trask is the best QB at 20, trading down can probably still pick him up, and the extra picks could land some other help at need positions like Terrace Marshall (WR), Jackson Carman (RT), Daniel Faalele (eventual LT), Chuba Hubbard (RB), along with some good youth at DT and ILB. I got Newman in the 4th, where he is developmental behind Trubisky/Foles. He does offer that running threat, as well.
Then again, if the O-Line's improved with Leno/Daniels/Mustiphar/Whitehair/Carman, you have a top 3 WR of A-Rob/Marshall/Mooney, the TE duo of Graham/Kmet, and Montgomery/Hubbard at RB... I'd say the Bears have a good shot at the playoffs, and making a deep run.
Assuming we don't trade any picks at all heres mine with this neat site.
ps I had too look up players and stuff since I am not signed up to look at there ratings and grades

Exactly. Showing true deciation towards a plan of QB acquisition and development. Wouldn't be surprised to see other teams follow if it happened.Honestly, whilst it is "unorthodox" it does make up for years of Ryan Pace whomst said he would be "drafting a qb every year," so as long as it isn't all white QBs he selects, I'm okay with giving him another shot as GM.

Are you serious?OK, took a whack with the PFF mock.
I did my trade-down bit... and I came away with not a bad draft at all, I think.
Bateman at WR to join A-Rob and Mooney...
Carman and Faalele, my next RT and future LT...
Patrick Surtain II fell to 83... so I grabbed him (Fuller AND Johnson AND Surtain = coverage sacks).
Zaven Collins might be that guy we need next to Roquon.
Newman's drafted for development, then I got guys who slipped, bit time.
Toney slipped to 154 - so I got him (see you Anthony Miller)
Trey Smith slipped a bit, so I picked him up. Means Daniels becomes the primary C/G backup. Could do worse.
Jalen Mayfield slipped to 225. Could make things interesting on the O-Line. Massie is definitely gone, and I may chop Leno as well.

Are you serious?
Quite.
In some ways, this is a draft that gives the Bears options.
There's a lot of youth on the O-Line... Massie would definitely be gone. Mayfield slipping the way he did this draft... well, he may take that frustration out on opposing D-Lines. Carman and Faalele have been my guys, but to add Smith and Mayfield adds all sorts of wonderful options.
Bateman's a good outside WR, and with Toney slipping, that's two first-round talents. If A-Rob stays, they join him and Mooney. Or, A-Rob walks, and I still have three darn good wideouts.
And opposing teams going with three wideout will have fits against Fuller, Johnson, AND Surtain. Or we can deal Fuller to get draft capital/cap space.
Plus Zevan Collins replacing Trevethan. Or maybe he bumps Quinn...
You have Newman as a developmental QB to be mentored by Foles. These weapons should be enough so that Trubisky can hold the line for a bit (his value isn't just for the decent play he provides, it's also because Newman's physical skills are better for a similar power-running offense).
Again, look at some of the folks who slipped in the draft.
I see the depth chart breaking down like this after this draft:
QB: Trubisky, Foles, Newman
RB: Montgomery, Herbert, Cohen
WR1: A-Rob, Toney, Wims
WR2: Bateman, Mooney, Patterson
TE: Graham, Kmet, Horsted
LT: Leno, Mayfield, Faalele
LG: Daniels, Bars, Smith
C: Mustiphar, Daniels
RG: Whitehair, Bars, Smith
RT: Carman, Bars, Faalele
DE: Nichols, Onwuzurike, Edwards
DT: Hicks, Togiai
NT: Goldman, Robertson-Harris
OLB: Mack, Weaver
ILB: Smith, Britt, Woods
ILB: Collins, Britt, Iylegbuniwe
OLB: Quinn, Vaughters
CB: Fuller, Surtain, Vindor
CB: Johnson, Shelley, Vindor
FS: Jackson, McManus
SS: Bush, Houston-Carson
K: Santos
P: O'Donnell
Holder: Newman
LS: Scales
KR: Patterson, Cohen, Toney, Mooney
PR: Cohen, Patterson, Toney, Mooney
