I brought this up a couple of days ago stating that we don’t know how much power Kevin Warren has and was laughed at. I thought he only had control over the management (stadium, revenue being brought in, etc) side of the bears, but maybe not. Thoughts?
The only reason poles should be gone is if he ties himself to eberlose and refuses to move off him at the end of this season. He’s had a couple egregious moves on the Velus pick (which is bound to happen at some point to literally every gm ever) claypool trade, and just completely ignoring center this off-season when he had multiple opportunities to at least address it. The roster is clearly showing massive improvement and a lot of his picks are really starting to pan out. Our o line is primed to become a dominant unit with a center. Our secondary is starting to look very good. Our run defense is already top 3 in the nfl despite having no real starting dt. And he has managed to get off every bad contract we had in a year while gaining capital in the process. The only reason this gm job would even be appealing is because of the groundwork poles has laid.
