Fun fact: DJ Moore, has been in the league going on 6 years... And he's the same age as VJJ.

So CCS didn't say that? Maybe your feelings somehow are hurt so it's really you that's crying. ??

Yes we did say that because it is true. The fact someone claims the Bears are pursuing someone doesnt mean they are a scheme fit. It could be the reports aren't true or it could be the Bears are interested despite the player not being a scheme fit.

Wasn't he the guy saying they should use the pick to rid Fields last week?
Who? Eisen? He has been pretty consistent saying he would keep Fields the entire time. I think it was one of the guys on his crew that suggested/supported it, but Eisen disagreed.
Yeah Eisen is a Fields supporter. At one point he did say the Bears should trade Fields to the Jets. However that was because he is a Jets fan and wanted the Jets to get Fields.

As far as I'm concerned, Rodgers to the Jets is a done deal. No way he doesn't keep playing and it seems like the Packers are done with him, and vice versa.
After years of him handing us our ass, I’m ready for him to go to another team. But man it would be nice if he came back and the Bears really become good enough this year to at least beat Aaron Rodgers and the Packers twice a year! He got the best of us that’s for damn sure. Oh well, it is what it is.

Bears analysis: We know Justin Fields can connect on the deep bombs, and we know he can take off with his legs when his pocket breaks down. But to take his game to the next level, he has to become a consistent intermediate passer. Enter D.J. Moore.

Among 32 quarterbacks with at least 50 intermediate pass attempts (passes thrown 10-19 yards downfield) in 2022, Fields led the way with a 66.7% completion rate and ranked 13th in accuracy percentage per PFF charting. However, he didn’t attack there often enough, partly due to his pass-catchers.

From 2019 to 2022, D.J. Moore saw 172 intermediate targets, the second-most in the NFL. And while Fields still has room to grow as a passer, it’s not like Moore was working with much at quarterback over that span. The timing is also perfect, as Moore is just 25 years old and signed a new contract last offseason, with Chicago inheriting a three-year, $52.265 million deal.

In addition to getting their young quarterback a No. 1 option at a good value, the Bears also land two first-round and two second-round picks, which they can utilize to overhaul the rest of their roster, particularly in the trenches where help is sorely needed on both sides of the ball.

The 2024 first-round pick from Carolina could land in the top 10 again, given the current state of the Panthers roster and the volatility that comes with playing a rookie quarterback.

Overall, this was a home run by general manager Ryan Poles.

I think the inclusion of D.J. Moore makes it that homerun. Had it just been that 2025 1st rounder and maybe another 4th round pick or something, it would have been a good trade but not like this. Moore solves a lot of current roster problems thus freeing up that 9th pick to not have to be spent on a WR, cause damn we still need a lot of talent on the D-line in particular.
