I'd be much more optimistic if Kubiak had stayed as OC and handled the offense, but without him it's certainly not looking great.

He is upgrade over what they have now and was playing well last season before injury

Broncos gave up a 4th round pick for an upgrade at QB
Hardly a bad deal
With pieces they have on D and an upgrade at QB the Broncos could very easily be a WC team next year

It's a lateral move at best and it cost a 4th round pick.
Wasn't Baltimore going to cut him anyways? He clearly wasn't in their plans.
speaking of cuts? when are they officially announced? Kevin White, Deion Sims and Parkey will most likely all be gone unless Pace can con a team to take on Parkey's deal for a 7th round pick, lol
Literally 0% chance.
Kevin White is a free agent. They'll probably start making cuts once the new league year starts (March 13th).
There's no reason to cut Parkey now. His money is guaranteed. We might as well force him to camp.

Cant trade Parkey to himself so no luck there
Parkey and his agent probably still laugh about the deal our GM gave him
Not as much as Gruden and his agent.

It's going to be real interesting when Mitch's rookie contract runs out (2020), right around the corner. Starting QB's in the NFL are signing 100 million dollar deals. On a side note, the top 6 highest paid NFL QB's last year all failed to make the playoffs.
Tom Brady has been taking pay cuts so that the Patriots have money to spend on the roster...will Mitch and his agent do same?
Dak Prescott (one of the leading dink and dunk passers in the NFL) recently said in an interview he was not interested in signing for anything less than market value.

That's a lot easier to do when your wife makes just as much or more than he does.
Rookie first round deals are 5 year deals. Next year he'll be on year 3.

Mitch signed a 4 year deal. If Mitch continues his dink and dunk ways and him and his agent are looking to cash in. Pace is better off letting him walk.

Yes ... for all first round picks, there is a 5th year team option. The Bears have to pick it up in the summer before the player's 4th season.
Because Trubisky was picked second overall, that team option for the 5th year will cost about $23mn.
You really don't know how the NFL works if you think the Bears will be letting Mitch go unless he completely stagnates these next 3 years. Even then, he's still a serviceable starter as he is now, so it would be hard to let him go regardless. You don't just let young QBs who can play walk.

Wait is that what he seriously said?
I don’t even bother reading his posts anymore. So much

Apparently Mitch is a "dink and dunk" guy who Pace needs to let walk at the end of his 4 year deal (either ignoring the 5th year option or saying Pace should just decline the option).
This guy should be the Browns GM.

Ryan Pace actually had ZERO to do with drafting Trubisky. It was all his scouting staff. He's just there for PR something something reasons.
