It will be exciting to see what he does in Q3, especially with the addition of Claypool and some soft defenses coming up.

People just need to give Claypool a few games to learn the offense.

Also wouldn't be shocked if Byron Pringle came back strong. This receiving corps seems to be coming together nicely down the stretch. Also, N'Keal Harry has been as advertised in limited action this season and is only 24 years old. I could see him being a red zone threat for Fields / Getsy for a long time.

I mean we’ll never know that exactly, right now that’s a big assumption. Either way, who cares? Bears have a new target and the arrow is pointing up for Justin. Exciting times right now

The point was guys in the media like Dan O and Ryan Clark were shitting on the Bears for not getting Fields weapons as if Poles was blind to the need and now patting themselves on the back thinking Poles finally smartened up to what they were saying as opposed to this being the plan all along and Poles pulled the trigger when he had the resources to do so.

I’m going to write more about this when I get the time, but I’m more and more convinced they’re going to keep Harry in the slot and more of a move TE/big slot than a boundary receiver. I’m thinking Claypool becomes almost a pure X, like Adams, and just rips the top off the D.

A consequence of the Harry big slot and Claypool X is more single coverage on Mooney. Good luck stopping Fields as he gets more and more weapons.

Next year is going to be a good year.

Sure, but the thing is those guys are nonsense and shouldn’t even be entertained in the first place. Who cares? We still don’t have any idea what Poles/Flus were thinking in the off-season or the evolution of their thought process. It’s complete conjecture

Disagree. I think what they were thinking and their thought process was quite obvious to anyone paying attention hence why I have been saying for weeks now they would likely need to trade for a WR because the FA WR crop sucked. That is precisely what Poles said at his press conference. He also noted that getting the 2nd from the Ravens likely made giving up a 2nd for Claypool easier so not really conjecture. He bided his time until he had the resources to make a move.
