I was tempted to flair this as “satire,” but apparently this analyst thinks it’ll happen.

Quote: “The Bears could have a conundrum at the quarterback spot on their hands in the offseason, but I have a solution.
In this mock, the Bears do what is probably best for the future of the team and Justin Fields himself: They trade him to give him a fresh start, and get some early picks in the process. Given how hyped the quarterback class is, Chicago – likely holders of two top five picks – shouldn’t pass on a young, talented and inexpensive option at the game’s most vital position.”

Yeah, never mind looking at the Raiders’ perspective in this pipe-dream. We have way too many areas that need addressed, including the gaping holes along our O-line.

    I’d rather use those picks to build the team out then waste them on a prospect that’s not good enough. We already have Jimmys contract (28.5) and we’re gonna likely eat Hoyers 2.6…Why add more dead weight.
