The whole point of this NFL free agency and trade market thing is to acquire playes for what they will do in 2023 and maybe beyond. Not ***** and argue about who was better in fucking 2020.

There's a little more to it than "UH EXCUSE ME but if you look here it says Chase Claypool had eighty more yards than Allen Lazard that one year so uh yeah CHECK MATE". By this sort of logic the Bears should move heaven and earth for Adam Theilen or DeAndre Hopkins.
Oh so this is about whos more likely to be better in the future then? That's Claypool because he's 3 years younger and been significantly better.

I really hope we draft a C who takes the job from Patrick.

I'd still keep Whitehair...it isn't as if we need the space and he's a plus to have around while providing quality depth. Cut Whitehair in '24.
Depth yes just not sure about the quality part.

Just because a player is above 320lbs doesn't mean he isn't athletic enough to be a scheme fit.

You guys remind me when everyone said Bears would only get 4.3 WR's.

Shut up
do you even know what kind of player Brown is? LOL

Was just going to post this.

Paying RB’s is against my religion.

BUT…. Isn’t he half WR too? I honestly don’t know much about him outside of he’s great in fantasy
Probably nothing to it like all the Payne, Hargrave, McGlinchy, D. Jones etc. Give me Monty.

Truly braindead. Though this is the kind of idiotic thinking that led Ryan Poles to get absolutely hosed in that trade.

I heavily doubt that poles is using a Special person online metric to make his oline decisions.

He already decided once before that Orlando Brown JR was good enough to protect Pat Mahomes blind side...
No one said he does. The fact is that Brown profiles as the exact opposite TYPE of player Poles looks for.

Look, I'd be happy if CHI signs him to play RT, I'm not saying he sucks that bad. I'm saying its a VERY LONG shot to happen.

If the team with the number one pick next year doesn't want a QB. Do they get 5- #1picks?

If Carter drops to 9, you gotta figure that the red flags end up being big enough that the Bears choose not to take him either.

He either goes top 5 IMO or out of the 1st round all together.
Tunsil was projected to be the first pick and he fell to 13. He didn’t fall out of the 1st round all together.

That would be a win.

Saints RT got 5 years 90 million
Orlando Brown should get 5 years 105 million
It all depends on how you look at it. Ramczyk was given a 5 year $96M contract in 2001 when the salary cap was at $185M. Since then the salary cap has increased by 21% to $225M. The current market value of the contract should be 21% higher or a 5-year $116M. That's a lot of money for a right tackle but the Bears can probably afford it given they have LT on a 5th-round rookie contract. Still, I don't think I would do it
