It has been outstanding.

They need a rb who can catch the ball. Right now they have none. Fields needs to be able to take advantage of easy plays and giving him a good rb outlet who can catch and pass protect is important. Foreman is none of those things. He is more like Herbert - who I like, but we don’t need two. They still have a need in draft for one who can hopefully be a bit more dynamic.

What surgery is it that will have that long of a recovery time or is this one of those - they know he is toast so they are just going to assume he is out next year.

They have to get cap relief for this right?

What I wonder is how much is the other non football stuff effecting him. For all we know he had been nervous as can be for past few weeks post the law news. If so - can see that as a reason you aren’t yourself. Or it could be as you all say - but I see just as likely scenario as the above. Kid did a kid thing. Stupid yes, lucky sure, but It doesn’t make him a monster - that said - he got caught and is in a big mess because of it. For a normal human being - I would think you would be a mess (lack of sleep, focus, etc until you get some resolution).

Orlando Brown to Bengals for way too reasonable a deal. 4 yrs at 16M per.

Go sign Brown Jr to a contract like Mcglinchey got and make him your RT. Draft Bijan or Dline with first pick than draft another guard / te / late round qb / lots of defense.

Lol - didn’t even know he was a real player. Never heard of him.

Watch them get Ekler for a 5th rounder or something.

Buckner could be had. Plus you have guys like Van Ness or a Carter in the draft. Options aren’t as bleak as we think and we can go cheaper at RT and than invest one of 2nd rounders in one of the tackles too. So go dline round 1, one of round 2 on tackle, maybe other on center or a rb/te/db?

Walker is at least a solid move and it doesn't bust the cap at all. I will say Jacobi Myers ended up getting a lot less than I expected (maybe the wideout market has cooled down a bit). That Myer contract should help a bit in terms of Mooney (I hope). Cause Mooney isn't Moore.

I thought Davenport signed.

Pretty nice - they also need cap space for any extensions they will give (i.e., Kmet / Mooney / etc).

Sox

He is such a badass.

It’s pretty clear how much Sox missed prime Timmy last year. I hope we get prime Timmy all year…will be such a massive upgrade.

100% agree. With Roquan here, you don't get quite the same haul for #1 overall either.

Curious to know where the Bears stand in cap space as of this point (ball park wise).

He's going to get pretty big money - is my guess. I wonder if that means Bears are getting Jones? I feel like they have one more big signing left in them and than they will be done.

Go get Brown and than add a 3T.

This - I am very pleased with what the Bears did here.

Edmunds got 4yr 72M - $50M guaranteed.

So seems like he was solid.

In this case though - I don't know what Edmunds got - but it seems like in this market - he got a 2rounder for Roquan + we used that money to get 2 LB's (not saying either one is as good as Roquan - but there were points in time where people compared Edmund and Roquan). I haven't yet seen the $'s on Edmund, but in general - I like where he took value here. I still would like to see a bigger splash at tackle - but I get it if they end up addressing it in the draft. Is Whitehair gone or are they going to move him back to center? Jenkins was obviously pretty good - but you can't deny fact you need a solid backup guard given he hasn't exactly been a model of good health.

Is Nate Davis any good?
