I'm not a fan of this move. That's an overprice for a guy (Fields) I've flip flopped on probably thirty times over the last 8 months.

Da Bears.

Fields will be the best player in this draft.  :)

I'm happy. Not Mac Jones.

PGsHeroes32

Eagles with maybe the pick of the draft.

Smith is a top 3 talent in this draft. They shoulda just taken him with their original 6th pick.

Traded back to 12 instead. Then went back up to 10 to get him.
Lazar picking up where the BIG 3 left off....

That kid is an absolute stud.  Tremendous speed with great hands.  Shocked he wasn't in the top 3.

Exactly.  I don't like giving up a first but I'm really pumped to have a dynamic proven (in college) guy back there.  Booger saying Mac Jones over Fields cause Fields was like Trubisky was unfathomably stupid

A 1st and 4th next year and a 5th this year

I thought he was the 2nd best QB. But there is no indication they have a coach to develop him. And much like GB last year, they drafted a guy who probably won't see the field next year unless there is an injury.

Actually his 40 yard times were very average for a 1st round receiver.

I liked Waddle a lot more.

Agree, Jockey. Liked Waddle better than Smith or the LSU receiver.

Guess the Bears are out of the Aaron Rodgers sweepstake.

I like Smith but don't know much about football.  As for Fields?  It's impossible to know but if he can breathe and walk he'll be better than Trumisky.

Think that's a great move by the Bears.  Whether Fields can overcome the organization, that's another story

The Bears have had their struggles and Pace is a complete disaster.   But remember the NFL doesn't exist without Papa Bear and Da Bears organization.

Please give more freedom to a GM and coach who won't be around next year.

Also smart to continue to pay Foles, go get Dalton, then trade up for a rookie QB.

So dumb

Dalton makes no sense if this was the plan all along, but I am very happy with Fields.

I don't understand why Nagy and Pace are back.

Good twitter thread if you're a bears fan

But I still hate this ownership and management

Cause the McCaskeys are idiots with twisted senses of "loyalty" who are easily won over by platitudes and enthusiasm.

Fields will have a top 10 WR, a healthy Cohen, Kmet, and some speed in the slot.  The Bears are not without offensive weapons.   

His accuracy alone is going to make him a huge upgrade over Too High Trubisky

It's hard to defend Bears management, but ... I'm guessing that when they got Dalton, they thought that Fields would go much higher and that they wouldn't be able to trade up that high to get him. In the time since then, as it became apparent that Fields might drop, they saw an opportunity to get a QB they like.
