100%. No question. He's a top 10 QB.
I would but the Chargers aren't dumb enough to do that. Herbert is a top 5 QB.
Would the Chargers do it?
No
You don’t know that! The number 1 overall pick could be anything, even a Justin Herbert!
Beautiful! I've thought about this exact line so many times reading through all these absurd draft scenarios.
We could offer them every pick we have this year and they'd say no while laughing
Why would the Chargers trade like the only good part about their team?
Maybe they want to recreate the second chapter of trading Drew Brees 😁
They also got a Bosa who probably thinks Chicago is a little to dark for his tastes.
Would I do it yes. Would the chargers no.
End thread
No. He got Carson Wentz in him.
I think both sides would be dumb to make that trade. Herbert is a proven franchise QB, Williams and Maye are unproven but have more upside. If you’re the bears, you go with the rookie QB contract window, if you’re the chargers you stick with your franchise QB.
Yes I would do that but they absolutely won’t
Let’s sign Kirk cousins and draft MHJ and then the best available player.
Did this subreddit collectively lose half their braincells this weekend? The posts here in the last 24 hours are insane lmao
No shit you make that trade if the Chargers were dumb enough to want it.
Not to even mention he just got a new contract.
I would do that in a heartbeat
The Chargers would never, ever do this. This was asked a while ago about the Vikings and Jefferson and even they wouldn't do that.
I’m not sure the Cards would even do it for Kyler, and he’s a worse player with a bit of an albatross of a contract.
I would trade the 2024 Panthers pick, the 2024 Bears pick, and the 2025 1st round pick for Herbert and be thankful to have the best QB in Bears history and in the division for the next 10 years.
Hypothetically, yes, I absolutely would trade the #1 pick for Justin Herbert. But that would never happen, that would be an incredibly dumb move by the chargers
Chargers would probably want another 2-3 first round picks to even consider it, so yeah Bears would definitely do that deal
Hell no
There's literally zero chance of the Chargers trading Herbert lol. You don't voluntarily put your team back into QB hell when you get lucky and find a young franchise QB.
That being said if I entertain this miracle situation for the sake of argument, I would easily trade both of our first rounders this year for Herbert. Not even a question in my opinion
I would Unfortunately the Chargers would not give him up.
Yes, easily. I’d the chargers who would have an issue with this
Why are the chargers so ass if he's good?
Because he is not good enough to overcome bad defence and playcalling. In other words, not elite.
Nope. We don't have the coaching or play calling. The only people that could survive in our system currently as a QB would be a solid vet who doesn't need help with their growth, and can stand up to bad coaching and play calling. Tom Brady, Aaron Rogers, Kirk Cousins, or even Matt Stafford would work. Anyone that "has potential" won't work for our current system, because the coaching and play calling are going to kill that potential. This is why we have two QB's with potential, but neither are playing well.
Since Halas dies this team as struggled with ownership issues. They hire cheap coaches and GMs with little to no experience. They struggle with front office decision making. Really it was the death of Papa Bear that started us on our downward slope. The last person Halas hired was Ditka in 1982. Papa died in 1983, we won the 1985 season with the team that Papa built, and since that time we struggled.
We need new ownership, which hopefully will bring a better front office, and hopefully better coaching. I don't think we see another SB under McCaskey ownership. 2006 was a fluke.
Yes. I’d trade 2 #1s for Herbert.
Chargers would ask for three.
that’s an obvious yes
this from this Fields “truther” like me
You don’t have to be ashamed about being a truther. Don’t let the others get you down. Fields will be here next year balling out with that swagger, moxie and it factor he just has. He just has it baby
Shut up omg enough
He’s the face of SoFi. He’s not going anywhere. Lol
Sure. If his line doesn't get him killed first, ours definitely will.
it would cost way more than just the number 1 pick lol if they would even listen to it.
Oh yeah. Trade them the number one pick, fields, and a portillo's franchise.
Nice dream.
fuck no, why would I want to get older
Um... think 3-4 first round picks...
No. Justin Herbert is not an elite qb, and he is being paid like an elite qb. I would also not give up the chance to draft a potentially elite qb to overpay a top 10ish qb.
It's statistically unlikely a draft pick will be better than him. It is more likely that caleb williams will be better than him than herbert will ever win a superbowl.
Herbert gets mentioned in the top tier of qbs when he is more like the kirk cousins tier. And honestly, cousins is better at playing quarterback. Not as athletic, sure, but that's all everyone calling herbert a surefire top 5 qb is doing is projecting his potential because he has a strong arm.
I say this while fully cognisant of the fact that he would be the best quarterback in bears history. LA would also never make that trade.
