Chicago should stick with Fields, at least for 1 more year.
Trade down from 1 to 2 with Washington.
Then trade down again from 2 to 6~.
Remember you also have pick 9.
Use this draft to pick up a bunch of extra 2nd rounders and future 1sts. Absolutely fill your roster with young talent.
Then next year, if Fields isn't the guy, you've got a bunch of extra 1sts you can use to get your QB, and a roster that is ready to win now.

I’d like to think we’d take one of the 3 QB prospects or at minimum Marvin Harrison jnr.
Whist I know what your point is, I’d be devo if they did it and missed the cream.
If we go Williams, we can trade Fields and pick up draft capital

If you're trading Fields, you'll get pennies on the dollar for him. At most a 3rd round pick.

I think with Kingsbury going to the Commies they will have a crack at pick 1. Will come down to if the Bears think Maye is in the same ball park. Next to no chance Fields is the starter imo, next years QB class looks bad. Bears will take a QB at either 1 or 2.

I’m no expert but I’m not sold on Maye. Not sure if it’s the NC connections but I get Trubisky vibes all over from him.

Luke Getsy Popularity Perplexing for Bears Fans
Is it possible all the interest in former Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy doesn't mean teams really want to get inside information about Justin Fields?

No, not necessarily.
Bears might use pick 2 on MHJ, or (more likely) trade down from 2 to somewhere between 5-8. Then use one of their two top 10 picks to take a QB that slides (like Daniels/Maye/Penix), and the other on the top LT on the board (likely Alt or Fashanu).

Daniels won't make it past Atlanta at #8. Think he'll go earlier than that too. Taking Penix in the first round with his injury history is too risky for my liking.

Daniels isn’t making it past 4. If he gets past New England that means they took mjh which means cardinals will be looking to trade down.

That's what I mean when I said he'll go earlier than that. Someone like Atlanta would likely have to trade up. 8 is the absolute floor but he will highly likely go earlier.

Would be good for us if Williams Maye and Daniel’s are gone in the top 6.
Might give us some Fields currency

Be great if they go 1,2,3 with no trades I reckon might be enough to get a Carson wentz like haul off a desperate team for fields.

The issue is It's hard to find a place for him right now honestly, that's the problem. Can rule out the Raiders with Getsy signing there. Can't pin point a spot other than maybe Atlanta where he'd be the starter.
I don't think the Broncos and Payton are interested, think Sean wants a gun QB or his own rookie to bring along.
Can't see the Steelers being interested.
Seattle maybe if they move off Geno? They are shrewd operators though, can't see them trading for a failed QB. Schneider probably backs himself to find one in the draft.

Teams that could use a QB upgrade
Bears
Commanders
Patriots
Falcons
Steelers
Raiders
Broncos
Seahawks ?
Jets ? Long term replacement rodgers
Giants ?
How many can say will be interested in fields ? Falcons, maybe Steelers and Seahawks. The rest will be filled by rookies or Russ you’d think.

Not in the Steelers way to give up on a first round QB so soon (in his rookie deal) especially given its new GM Omar Khan's first significant draft pick. But.... I'd hope they still trade for Fields to compete with Pickett. If Pickett keeps flaming out, they have a more dynamic QB to pass the baton to. And Arthur Smith and Fields probably suit each other. Given the 2025 QB draft class is mediocre, if Pickett fails, it would be on the dawn of his 5th year option (2024) so wouldn't be able to draft a top QB prospect, thus Fields there to take over. Rudolph, Trubisky are not long-term answers.

Fields Destination Tiers....
Tier One
Broncos, Vikings (div rival tho), Eagles (as a backup), Jets (as a backup), Rams (pending Stafford's status)
Tier Two
Patriots (if they opt to trade down, collect picks, retool sorely lacking roster), Raiders (still think Getay and him aren't enemies), Steelers, Seahawks, Falcons
Tier Three
Dolphins, Buccaneers (pending Mayfield's status)

Only got one year of guaranteed money left. The issue with Fields is the same as what they just had with Jones however. Rookie QB at the end of his deal, and you end up paying a guy you shouldn't. Can't see them making that same mistake twice.

FWIW I reckon Maye will slide pre-draft.

Dunno if he’ll slide with the Bears Comms and Patriots all needing upgrades.
Can’t see him sliding beyond 5/6
Whether he’s successful is another matter.

Keep Justin, trade down to pick 2 and select the best player in the draft... MHJ. Apparently he's a generational talent.
There is speculation we will get the commanders 2025 1st rounder in the trade also. If that is the case we will have enough draft capital to address the qb position next year if Justin doesn't work out.
Either way, bears fans are dead certain we will end up with the wrong qb. At least we will have Marvin!
