Wrong again, jackass of the interwebz. Must have been a Jordan Sigler bit that compared Mahomes to Cutler cause nobody, with sense, ever did. Or maybe they were comparing Jackson Mahomes to Jay Cutler. Seems more likely.

You draft Caleb Williams and let him develop. If fields takes off, you have trade bait, if fields doesn’t, you have a backup plan.

I agree you still take 5th year option but you have to trade one of them or move fields to wr.

Fields would still start in this offense if he wasn't a QB, but it would be too expensive.

5th year options are for idiots who don't know whether to shit or get off the pot.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. FC Dallas
  1. Toronto Raptors
  1. Dallas Cowboys
  1. Vancouver Canucks
  1. Radford Highlanders
I would get in either an OL or an OT. Always good to have those up front.

Searched. Nobody, with sense, ever made such a claim..... Confirmed. U STOOPID
Your caveat is unfair, as anyone you don't agree with (everyone) does not have sense (to you)

Thanks idiot.

There’s no such thing as a can’t miss QB. If Fields puts up those stats, you know he has the capability to win. And the team will only get better moving forward. By drafting another rookie QB you more than likely move backwards.
Superb QB on a rookie contract gives teams a unique ability to build a team and win.

What do you do as GM if Justin Fields has a good not great season ( 3600yards, 65%comp , 24TD 8INT, 750 yrds rushing) and leads the Bears to 10-7 record) and the Panthers crash and burn giving the Bears the #1OA.

Assume Caleb Williams tears it up again.

Seems unlikely, so there is no real reason to fret about it.

If Fields puts up those types of stats the Bears still have plenty of money and draft picks to build a team and win. If you already have a QB who has proven himself why go out and draft another QB to hope he becomes elite?

It’s a unique position. Has to be considered. The position is that fields plays great but not elite. Usually when a qb plays that well you don’t have the number 1 pick. Draft another QB because his ability is elite level and usually these players work out. He’s a prospect that’s being compared to Luck, Lawrence, level talent. Usually those guys pan out and being able to draft him and keep him on a rookie deal gives you a potential elite QB on a cheap salary. It’s what Cincy has been doing for a couple years with Burrow on the cheap, and Jalen Hurts with the Eagles. The teams will both look different once their contracts kick in.

I’m not against keeping Fields in that situation. Just not what I would do. It’s a huge, unlikely hypothetical anyway lol. Just a fun thought experiment

MHJ is the best player in the draft. If Carolina gifts the Bears the number 1 pick, poles should sprint to the podium.

I think it has to be considered if Fields doesn’t play well. But if he plays like the hypothetical situation suggests and takes the Bears to 10-7, the you give Fields the long term deal because he clearly improved tremendously.

The hypothetical situation is also based on the first round pick received from CAR. If the Bears go 10-7 they will easily be picking outside the top 10-15. Again if Fields plays that well you know what you have in him, financially speaking and draft picks. If you draft Williams #1 overall, we have no idea what the state of the team will be by the time he might earn that next big contract.

I get it’s an all fun hypothetical experiment but I think you were confused on what the hypothetical was.
