OT: Bears & NFL Talk 83

[ClydeLee]

But was the throw Defillipo asked him to throw a deep corner route? It would be nice to have a QB who can accurately routinely hit deep throws on target. Really haven't had it since Rex. I don't want to draft any Qb who is described as, inaccurate at deep throws again. I'd rather roll with the risk taker if he also hits his targets on point.

Lose a pro bowl CB, and the best player in your secondary... for Andy f***ing Dalton.

f*** the Bears. I'm so done with this franchise.

With my Bears bar getting national news and shut down for violating covid protocols and this horrendous management, seems like a good for a boycott.

 

[Panzerspitze]

Mills is projected as 3rd/4th rounder

Some big red flags potentially reading scouting reports

- Only 11 starts in college
- Multiple knee injuries in high school (Reportedly still had lingering issues with them early at Stanford)
- Inconsistent on deep throws with issue specifically underthrowing WR's deep
- Struggles to read complex blitz packages
- Locks onto 1st read and struggles progressing to 2nd read

If you take out the injuries this sounds exactly like Mitch!

Pace trading up into late 2nd to grab him then.

Awesome, I really like Galloday. Now the bears just need a QB.

We got dalton but not the dalton we need

Someday we will get a non McCaskey owner ,, And the new owner will clear entire organization from top to bottom and bring Bears to glory

They cut Fuller with a 9 M dead cap, meaning that they saved 11M only to pay Trufant 7M. This is buffoonery of the nth degree.

My guess is that Hicks is only gone if they can get Golladay.

He’s gone

Probably not in our lifetime, the hope is they put someone in charge in that family that has a clue what they're doing. You can always strike gold with a good GM hire. The team has to be worth in excess of 3 billion so that limits you to a few individuals or a group of investors but the Mc's still have to want to sell. It's part of their family history so tall order, plus the Bears employ a ton of them.

This article talks about some turmoil that could come about after Virginia passes.
It's Time For The McCaskeys To Sell The Bears And That Would Be Good For Them Too

 

[chicagoskycam]

Bears make offer to galloday with the intention to pair him with a-rob

That would be a really good WR duo.

Kelly Lynch in that movie = fiyah!

I would ask for our 4th back or at least a 5th.

Honestly I'd be happy if they took him for free just to get his money off our books.

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Not surprising in the end. The money would have had to be much worse elsewhere for him to come to Chicago.

Still have KC UFA's Sammy Watkins or Demarcus Robinson. Wouldn't mind a 1 year flyer on either.

Watkins makes a ton of sense. He's fast too and brings that element to the team.

 

[blondu]

How much does he want? Who are the other free wc choices?

 

[ClydeLee]

Fuller officially cut and signed in Denver

Fuller officially cut and signed in Denver

1 year and 9.5M but hey we spent half a mill more on Andy Dalton lmao and then 7 on a washed up Trufant.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

From 1st rounder to potentially out of league in less then a year

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

 

[ClydeLee]

MacKenzie and Cohen double threat for the Rifle

 

[Backyard Hockey]

Hicks staying. Couldn’t find a trade taker. Oft injured and getting old but we saw how bad the D was without him

Re: Fuller - one year deal and signed for $5M less than he would have made with Bears. Seems like a really bad decision for Fuller but more telling that Pace couldn’t rework Fuller’s contract to keep him

Pace is simply terrible at his job. Not average. Not mediocre, but terrible.
