Bears fans - what do you want from the draft next year? From an outside perspective this draft feels SO hard to navigate for you. Do you want MHJ + Oline help and go all in on Fields, now with a much better offense? Do you want to take a new franchise QB at 1? If so, Williams or May?
What to do with Fields seems like the hardest call. He hasn’t looked like a franchise qb per se, but offensive play calling and OL may be playing a factor. Could see him getting traded to a more stable team and being really solid (could also see him continue being mediocre)
Bears fan - I don’t want to comment on Fields vs. rookie qb as everyone is doing that. However, everyone sleeps on the Bears OL. Braxton Jones and Darnell Wright are playing great football. People mostly sleep on Braxton Jones, but he’s quietly been the best OT from the 2022 draft class and is a very valuable asset for the team as he’s still on a rookie deal. Drafting an OT with the current roster in the top 10 seems like a waste of the capital when there are more glaring holes on the roster, specifically on the DL. If MHJ is available with the Chicago Pick (not the Panther’s pick which looks like a top 3 pick rn), I want him on the team. Additionally, if the Bears don’t solve the center position in the draft or free agency, it’ll be a slight on the team. We currently have the 33rd-36th ranked center in the nfl… You could probably get hammered playing a drinking game each time there’s a bad snap or the center gets put on his butt in a Bears’ game.
