Who is talking about rehabbing Fields? I'm fine with any direction Poles decides to take the QB question.
Does new QB don't need a quality OC? The point is, for once, the Bears need quality OC just to get out the losing loop.
Hope all this make sense to grown ups here.
To put myself on record, I have no problem with the Bears drafting a quarterback. I just don't think it should be Caleb Williams. The dude screams bust.
On top of it, anyone watching the playoffs should see that compared to the Lions and the Packers if you take the quarterback completely out of it, we are very behind in terms of overall Talent. We need another haul. If we get one we can catch up to those guys.
Even a successful Caleb Williams alone isn't going to make up that much of a talent Gap.
Trade for a haul, pick up a quarterback with whatever second round pick you get back in return. Develop that guy under the new offensive coordinator and let fields start next year so that way the rookie can sit and learn.
Doing it that way brings your overall Talent level closer to Detroit and Green Bay and also nabs you a quarterback you can develop if you have the right coach in place.
Because if they blow the coaching hire, it won't matter who we have at quarterback.
