We were 8-8 with Trubisky and Foles so i think a decent QB could get us 10 wins.

I don't see it. The organization inexplicably passes on Watson in 2017, but now is going to give up multiple 1sts, 2nds, and our young defensive talent in order to magnify their egregious fuck-up 4 years ago? They would rightfully get skewered by the media for a decade, and they don't need any more bad press.
I'd believe this news with Wilson, not Watson.

Watson is only on the books for $10 mil in 2022 so that would be huge for us.

I don't think it's a bad thing for Pace if he could in some way eat crow and give up a ton for a QB he passed on in the draft. It's not a bad thing to be able to admit where you were wrong. Yeah it was a huge miss on his part that will always follow him but to turn around and trade for him i don't see as a bad thing.

Bears aren't winning anything meaningful without a QB and Pace sucks in the first round anyways so fuck it. Push your chips in, Pace

sure, but is there a team out there desperate enough to outbid pace? if pace got fired tomorrow, hypothetically of course, with his track record at QB i’m not convinced he would get another GM job for a while.

If you count Mitch could be 4 1sts and a few mid rounders though i suspect he'd rather trade a couple/few players. Could of had him for a 1st and some picks on a trade down, LOL. Not too mad, stuff happens and I'm happy he's willing to eat a mistake.

There are ways to be contrite without mortgaging the future of the franchise for someone you should have picked from the start.

In my eyes it has more to do with even having the assets to make the top offer. We pick #20 this year and if you add Watson to the team I think it is fair to assume future draft picks would be #20 or later. Houston, I'm sure would like to have a serviceable QB this year. They already traded their 1st rd draft pick. Our #20 and whatever we add isn't going to help them much.
And yes, I believe other teams like Carolina & Washington that are as desperate.

Mitch is the deal breaker. No one wants that loser.

Three first and two good players
So basically Kevin White, Leonard Floyd and Mitch Trubisky and two other players

You give up the whole room for Watson. End of story!
We have pieces after a franchise QB is in place just have to surround with mid - low cost FA / draft.
The team looks much better after we have a bonafide star under center no mater how you look at it or give up.

And we have no idea who leaked this one, so how do we know it's creditable?
For all we know the Eagles could be leaking this claim as well. It makes no sense, but neither does blindly following a rumor without understanding who/what the source is.

Yeah I don't think Pace or Nagy stated this fact, was only reported by Jay Glazer.

Texans are very weak defensively. Bears have lots of bloated contracts on the D side of the ball

Not buying any of the trade hype, it's just click-bait. I don't think any, or all, of George, Teddy, Pace, Nagy are as desperate as Bears fans or media wish them to be.

Do you have a link? I don't see where Glazer said this.

Remember all the rumors of Wentz being linked to the Bears and it got out Pace didn't even make an offer?
Pace does his deals in silence. Mack trade came out of nowhere as did the Mitch draft. Probably the Texans side leaking stuff to get other teams to bite.
