Nah.

Steelers bench Fields cause they were worried about the draft pick.

You think the Steelers aren't going to play who they think is their best option because it means giving up a fourth rather than a sixth?

Fields is who he is and Tomlin sees the limits as did the Bears as did the rest of the NFL as bore out in the market for him in the offseason. Sometimes theses NFL guys know what they are doing.

Fields is a great backup QB which has real value in the NFL. I think he will draw a nice paycheck for years and that is great for a guy who seems to be a great guy and teammate.

Great post.

I was impressed with Fields when said he lost the starting job because he wasn't playing well enough. That shows self-awareness and maturity. He also vowed to keep improving. Makes me want to root for him.

Think it’s clear now Fields will be in the league for awhile, either as a starter on teams looking for a stopgap or a backup on a good team. He may not have played as well as he could but he showed he can manage a game with a good defense and competent coaching.

Teams should use him as a RB.  He's great in that aspect of the game.  Could even do flee flickers, without even needing to pitch the ball back to the real QB.  Should be able to make a deep ball throw once a month.

Next year’s draft will be pretty interesting for QB’s. I didn’t love Ewers or Beck coming into tonight, and both of them were terrible. I just do not see future NFL weekly starter for either guy.

Milroe just doesn’t pop, I watch Alabama games and come away wondering why he didn’t do more.

I think Sanders is destined for Miami, I’ve felt for a while that’s where Deion wants him to end up.

Wild card in the class is Cam Ward. If he wound up in LA with McVay and the Rams, I’d be intrigued.

Ewers is in a weird position, cause he's clearly not back totally from his injury, but he's not gonna come back for another year for a variety of reasons, especially when Manning has looked very good.  I'm not as down on him as you are, but I don't think he's gonna be trending well into the draft regardless.

Ward is a sneaky great prospect.  Decent size, amazing arm, and has just performed at every level as he climbs up in competition.

Nothing will drive more interest than the Chargers and Cardinals.

Especially since the Chargers aren't playing the Dolphins.

Yes brutal indeed. Bucs Head Coach well noted for bad decisions. This article points out that he will be questioned for why leaving Godwin in the game late with no realistic chance to win

My wife is running the Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday...she's looking for a good Bears bar in DC.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks!

No suggestions but best of luck to Mrs. Lens. I’m told the Marine Corps Marathon is fantastic - but difficult.
