Its not a rumor....it a complete fabrication

The long and short is that Hicks' agent is trying to get a contract extension done...its been two weeks since that was announced which is an eternity to an attention seeking sports whore website....

The proposed trade is just some analyst throwing shit up against the wall for clicks.

I wouldn’t even entertain this...
If it was for a good OT? Absolutely.

I wouldn’t extend him either not even at half the rate we’re paying him

I think it is fake but I'd do it in a minute. You have Robinson, OBJ, and Mooney catching balls from Fields would be nice. Hicks is too old and injury prone to resign. I loved him as a player but he more than likely gets hurt again. We have a deep young DL. They want to move money from Defense to Offense this is one way.

Yeah im pretty sure Cleveland wouldn't do this honestly. Fields would be the most talented qb obj has played with. The offense would be fun to watch if the oline could keep him upright

Move money to OL then, not to a WR who has missed major time 2 out of the last 4 seasons. I don’t think OBJ ever gets back to what he was. Re-sign Arob and spend $$$ on the OL

Re-sign Arob for 22-25 mill a year for one of the Better WRs in the league that gets the least separation. That will not end well. I loved the idea of Robinson signing for under 18 Mill a year for 3-4 years. Robinson will be 30 soon. I'm not real upset if he wants to leave due to his salary demands. Fields needs really fast WRs that can get a lot of separation like Mooney and Adams. OBJ has been Great in the past. Has not played with a QB with Fields touch on deep balls since Eli and he probably wasn't as good as Fields will become. At 14 Mill a year for 2-3 years it looks like a bargain. I'd be real clear there is no extension until year 3. He has to earn an extension.

Don’t think Robinson gets 22-25. 18-20 more likely.

fuck it, why not? Hicks is gone after this season and let's be honest - Bears aren't doing shit this season. OBJ has some intriguing upside. Maybe get a pick back as well? I think the Bears should make the argument given OBJ's injury history and random antics.

It would be comedy watching Nagy try and manage that

I can picture OBJ throwing TDs to Danny Trevathan. "Cinderella's carriage"

We need a lot more help at receiver then we do at DL

especially old, expensive, and often injured defensive linemen
