There is a portion if this sub that will hate this, but reality is, this is the most likely scenario as things stand now. If we have a top 2 pick, it will be a QB (yes, Fields has 7 games to 'prove it' but odds of him doing enough to not take a qb are very very slim). Throw in if we move on from Flus and bring in a new coach, odds of QB are even higher yet.

I could see a trade down with the 2nd pick if Poles wanted to go DL or another WR if he decides to role with Jones at LT.

I don't. For his faults, I think that was one situation that Poles handled perfectly at the time.

He improved the O Line, brought in a legit #1 receiver to give Fields weapons and improve protection (granted injuries on the o-line killed that for a good portion if the season and there is still work to do, but we've seen the improvement recently as guys are getting healthy).

Then got that future first, which gave him a Fields insurance policy in a draft that most analysts agreed at the time is a better QB prospect draft overall. Looking at the context at the time it was an extremely sound move by him.

I think he could be Gardner Minshew. Quality backup that could maybe keep your team above water if QB1 goes down for a stretch.

Plus I could see Bagent living in a camper during the off season.

To be fair I think a big part of it was the Nagy effect. People look at KC with Andy Reid and question how good the OC actually is and how much are they a product of Ried coaching and Mahomes QBing. Nagy's tenure in Chicago made that even worse.

But to also be fair, I don't know anything regarding his character, so who knows.

[–] GrdiSr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He would turn Fields into a Mahomes lite MVP candidate.

I like Bieniemy. Wouldn't be my top pick but wouldn't mind him if that's the way the Bears went. But this is a crazy leap right here.

And looking for a coach with the specific goal of saving Fields is dumber than keeping Flus and Getsy around.
