Maybe the Texans and Colts weren't seriously looking to go up to 1. That's what I'm basing my disappointment on right now. If that's the case then this would look a lot better. I'm just not a draft mark like a lot of you guys. I almost never have confidence in this franchise hitting on draft picks. So when we get a chance at what seem to be can't miss franchise players I'd prefer we just take one.
If you are not confident of them hitting on a draft pick should you not be happy they have more picks to try and hit on?
I think it's an incredible trade for the Bears. Saw mock draft the other day that had the Bears moving back twice and settling at 9. This trade basically brought the same haul.
Got a new WR1 under solid contract for 3 years, probably 5th non-QB of the draft, they can now really evaluate Fields and if they don't like their evaluation have Fields, two #1's and #2's next year to address the issue and if Fields is it they got a load of ammo to build up around him.
I'd truly be ecstatic is I was a Bears fan, and really down right now if I called Carolina my team.
