to me this says the staff was the issue, not fields, and they aren't ready to move on yet



others seem to think they are totally cleaning house and moving on from fields



thoughts?
 
Interesting. Maybe Fields is next. However, it does suggest they might be happy with Fields and just want better coaching around him. If the latter it would mean we are likely in on Drake Maye.

Some podcast suggested the idea that Chicago might trade down twice i.e.

1 to 2 with Commanders
2 to 3 with Pats
 
They need OL and WR. Fields can be a good starter if they build to his strengths. Athletic freak, good arm, probably needs simpler reads.
 
Likely means change of QB, new system, new QB type. If you were sticking with Fields you would not want him to start over again learning a new system, and BTW, pony up a new contract and hope he gets the new system. If they keep Fields and he stinks again, likely, They now are drafting in the middle of the first round and in QB purgatory for years with good players everywhere but QB.
 
I think all the change likely means new QB also. Sucks, since that really limits NE's options.

they'd likely go MHJ with the first? or trade back for a haul?
They already have a lot of draft capital from the trade last year. At some point you need players. Think pairing MHJ with DJ Moore might be too good to pass up.

Still gives us one of Maye/Daniels. Penix will also definitely be there.
 
Yeah, the top five can't be decided until Chicago decides on Fields. Will they bet on Caleb or MHJ and Fields?

true, but they can trade down with Wash or Pats and still get Harrison, plus picks.

Its going to be torture to pass on MHJr when the Bears need another WR to pair with DJ Moore who is very good. WR Darnell Mooney is at the end of his rookie contract and has disappeared as of late. I will be surprised if the Bears don't move on from Mooney who would blow up on a team like the Chiefs.

I believe Fields will stay, but Chicago will draft another QB later on in the draft.
 
Reads to me the Bears are open for business on the 1st overall pick and they're giving Eberflus and Fields on more shot. Can't imagine we'd need to sell the farm to move up two spots and they'd be in position to take Marvin Harrison Jr if they're all in Fields they need to load up.
