Which QBs? Mitch and Cutler after the 2011 season is all I can think of. Are we counting Rex?

I would count a first round pick as a meaningful investment.

If the McCaskeys were racist enough to prevent the team from signing a black QB I would have to think that they would have stepped in on the Lovie hire. I suppose it could be that multiple regimes/GMs/Coaches were all individually super racists, but most likely the Bears having less than their share of recent black QBs is more of an aberration.

I am curious when was the last time the bears drafted a black QB though? I'm not talking about in late rounds either

this is the correct answer...
why anyone is more concerned about the quota of black Bears quarterbacks over the quality is beyond me.
The Bears have missed out on choosing and developing quarterbacks no matter what their color is....
If we are worried about it, there has been a lack of Asian Bears quarterbacks as well.......when was the last time the Bears made a meaningful investment in an Asian Quarterback?

Vince Evans, 1977. I also remember hearing they wanted Culpepper but got jumped in the process. Then again I don't see the point in this. There's nothing that would make me feel better about drafting Deshone Kizer or EJ Manuel.

Yep.
I am not upset the Bears passed on black QBs. I am just pissed the Bears passed on Deshaun Watson...who happens to be black.

again, why are we worried about the color of the quarterback? Would it make everyone feel better if we had drafted JaMarcus Russell just so we could have had a "meaningful investment"

I think the only thing worse than drafting a player because of the color of their skin to prove you're not racist is to not draft a player because of the color of their skin to prove you are racist.

So what black QB are we overlooking this cycle? We showed interest in Teddy Bridgewater last season. This year, what black QBs are we bypassing? I'm sure we have considerable interest in trading for Watson, but he hasn't been made available and we likely don't have the assets to win a bidding war.

If we are taking about the Bears organization as a whole, they were one of the first NFL teams to start a black quarterback.....
how about we concentrate on getting a successful QB no matter what his skin color is?

I think there is a good chance that the Bears will meet you half way on that, with Jacoby Brisset or Tyrod Taylor starting in 2021.

I just wonder why they keep on passing up on Black QBs recently, who are well scouted by other teams. Watson, Mahomes, Jackson, meanwhile paying hefty prices for mediocre talent they've gone with over that time. They don't even have black backups, but old af dudes who can't even play.
