Jewels to get a case of Squirt
None of expected Mack to decline,but he actually did.....

Garret will too,no one knows just when tho.

Im not giving up valueable picks to find out when we waited for ever to draft a franchis qb that we have never had,just to throw it away.....
Our first pick has to an olineman.....and a center with the second/no later than the 3rd.
If Poles deems we need a dlineman,then 2nd rounder should get us a good one.

Lets not give up valueable picks....If Garrett was 26,Id be all for it..
Did Julius Peppers decline?

I have no problem with not wanting to trade for Garrett, but I don't think Mack's injuries are a good reason.

Garrett said he wants to go to a winner, do you reaslly think the bears fit that criteria at this time?
I don't think it's his choice. And adding Garrett and some OL along with the coach we stole from Detroit (who was responsible for the majority of their success), the Bears will be a lot closer than many think.

They're way better than 5-12, and I expect them to add a lot.

Agreed. D Linemen don't fall a cliff at 29 or 30. Garrett was DPOY a year ago and in the discussion in 2024.

when a player says he wants to go to a winner, it means he wants to go to a team that is currently a winner, not one whos fan base is hoping to be one

If they could get him without touching this year's draft capital, and use picks from 2026 and beyond I'd be all for it. For the right price.

I'd rather see if a player like Travon Walker could be had for less than what it would cost for Garrett. Walker isn't nearly as good as Garrett, but more than enough to help vastly improve the Bears defensively without gridlocking their cap and decimating their draft capital.

I understand that.

No player says "I want to go to a team that was 5-12 last year." We all know that. They want to go to the Chiefs.

But when they say "I want to go to a winner", they don't take into account salary cap status of those "winners", whether the winner already is set at DE, etc. While Garrett would be an upgrade over most anyone, a team with good DEs is not trading for him.

How do you determine which teams are winners when there is turnover in the playoffs every year. KC and Philly can't fit his salary. Detroit, Minnesota? They're in good shape at DE. Tampa? Get serious.

I'm sure Jayden Daniels wanted to go to a winner, too. But here we are.

can't fit his salary.
2025 ~ $ 5 M
2026 ~ $ 9 M

Reminder, the signing bonus for 2025 ($14M) and 2026 ($10M) would be stuck with Cleveland.

But in the spirit of what you are eluding to. Sometime this year or next they would have to extend him.

Coming from the same show that thinks we should cut braxton jones because he had a concussion.

Jurko has CTE
And yet he knows more about football than me or you will ever know, even with the CTE.

Not really anymore. As someone who listens to the show daily the guy has some serious mental damage. He watches more soccer/golf than he does actual sports

Guy hates when he has to do an actual job and pay attention to a game

If I'm Poles I'm putting all my chips on the table to win next year or he may be out of a job.

#10 and next year's 1st doesn't seem crazy for an instant upgrade like that


And a few hours later the Bears gave him a 4 year extension.

I think it is more Browns would be dumb to trade him for a pick in the 20s if someone is offering a top 15 pick so Garrett may have to settle for a team that didnt make the playoffs last year but has potential. Hence I named teams that fit that including the Bears.

I think the GM was excessive when he thought it would take a first, two third and a player.

He's paid what you can buy the best DE in Free Agency for. He's 30.

We should dangle Taylor/Walker and a second.
