OT Bears Trade #1 Pick

[lancerman]

Absolutely fleeced the Panthers. Wow

100% depends on if they hit at the QB. If they get an elite QB, it's a tie at minimum and they look brilliant.

A. Richardson could turn out to be the best QB in this class…Eventually. It’s gonna take time.
Best Case for Bears:
- Jalen Carter falls to #9
- Carolina falls in love with AR. AR plays early, shows promise, but team struggles.
- Bears pick #1 thanks to Carolina.
- Bears show progress but still pick in the 5-10 range.

The Bears made out well with this. Carolina must be sold on exactly who they want because it's a lot to give up.

Absolutely fleeced the Panthers. Wow

I didn't think it was a bad trade until I saw DJ Moore was included. Geez.

Panthers offense lost anderson moore and cmc in one year
The new qb needs to be paired with much more talent , they got to do investments
Anyway if they hit on their qb and the bears get a bust we look different at the trade winner, need to judge it after the draft

Right. This trade will be judged on how well Fields develops. If he busts out and the Panthers’ QB turns elite, the Panthers won in a heartbeat. No one remembers who KC traded with to get Mahomes because they got Mahomes.

On the bright side for the Pats, the Bears were a rumored suitor for Meyers. Them getting Moore could make it more likely the Pats can keep Jacobi cheap.

This is the first thought I had.. more likely the only suitors for Meyers would be Texans and they can possibly get obj or juju . Meyers market might be between 10-12 and he might come back to us on 4 year 50 million 27 guaranteed.

Panthers will anyways swipe the floor this year and who knows bears might get number 1 next year

Mac now officially has the worst weapons of all the 1st round QBs by far in this class. DJ Moore was a good get, Bill's gotta do something.

 

[Trolltolls]

oops

 

[Ring 6]

Bears robbed them.
50% chance the ultimate best QB from this draft is still there at 9 and <10% chance Carolina wins anything with Young.

 

[Ring 6]

Panthers will definitely take one of the top WRS now.

What? You think they traded 2 1s and 2 2s to go up to 1 and draft a WR?

I had a brain fart

This is great for Fields. Team has added a lot of resources to improve the team around him, which is desperately needed. Very smart move by Chicago, Fields is well worth building around.

D.J. Moore is a nice score in the trade too. Very good receiver.

 

[RobertWeathers]

On paper a good deal for da Behrs.

Historically speaking, two franchises who will both f up their picks because they are genetically dispositioned to do so.

 

[Brandon_Cox]

Lovie Smith gets his revenge

 

[DaBruinz]

I'd laugh if Carolina DIDN'T choose a QB and go with Jalen Carter.

 

[Pape]

Good haul for the bears...

2023: 2023 1st overall for '23 9th, 61st, '24 1st, '25 2nd + wr DJ Moore

Some perspective

NFL draft No. 1 overall pick trade history: 13 deals since 1967

Friday's trade was the 13th time the top pick has been dealt prior to the draft since 1967. Let's take a look at all the trades and how they worked out.

Seems very steep considering none of the QBs are generational talents. I would hate to give all that up to draft Young, Stroud or… Richardson…

If the QB they choose isn’t the guy it will be a costly mistake for the GM and Frank Reich.

Even if it is the guy the QB’s this draft are not franchise QB’s
