He's had his misses... the only high pick I truly hated from the moment it happened was Kevin White. I didn't care for Floyd but I didn't hate it. I'll still point to how he has overhauled the defense from the worst in franchise history to the #1 scoring defense in the league in 4 seasons. Offensively he has some work to do -- clearly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would much rather pay Trevathan about same amount as Kwiat AND get 4th or 5th comp pick -- right now it would be as 5th, could be as much as a 4th.

Sugashane Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I'd like to bargain-bin shop. Trade Floyd then go after some of these guys. EDGE - Nassib, Ogbah, Quinn, Irvin, Van Noy, Golden or Addison (too expensive I'd wager), Suggs (likely to retire) 2 down run stuffer - Beau Allen, Damon Harrison, A'Shawn Robinson, Linval Joseph OL options - Iupati (RG), David Sharpe (RT/RG - I think he's a better RG but might be better than Massie right now at RT), Whitworth (would be an upgrade over Massie even after declining but likely still overpaid) TE - Ebron (getting overpaid), Vernon Davis, Blake Bell, Delanie Walker, Holtz S - Tre Boston (does he ACTUALLY get paid his worth this year?), Miles Killebrew, Deon Bush QB - McCarron, Bortles (sucks but is better than Chase Daniel) I'll take Nassib, Allen, Sharpe, Davis and Holtz, Kilebrew, and Bortles. Should be very cost-controlled and each of them can provide depth at a minimum. - Nassib has been able to stay healthy and has experience standing and with his hand in the dirt. - Allen is a monster who will be far cheaper than the other three options - Sharpe may be able to be a better RT than Massie but likely is a better long-term option at OG - Davis is old but talented and a solid blocker, Holtz is younger and the same. Montgomery will thank us. - Killebrew is a special teams standout and is a purely in the box safety. EJax gets to roam again. If/when DT gets hurt he may be the best option we have to throw in at ILB. - Bortles is cheap and better than Daniel, sadly he may be able to even beat out Tru. Who knows? I want a rookie to compete with them regardless. Edited March 16, 2020 by Sugashane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually probably lucked out on the numbers. A lot of us were thinking he'd get an even better deal. Kwiatowski most likely jumped at the chance to be a Raider. And can't say I blame him, really. Once the Bears re-signed Trevathan, Kwiatowski wasn't seriously in the Bears' future plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope someone trades for Burton if Pace gets a TE in the 2nd round. If I was a team, I'd give up a 2047 7th round pick for Burton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 People would flip if Kwit was bad again after getting paid. They would say small sample size and they would be right. On other hand good chance Trevathan gets hurts so ... might have been no right answer. I hope they resign Pierre-Louis. Going to need some quality depth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmike90 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Seems like we have a very set plan in place...trade for a QB...then get involved in FA...that is a pretty good idea early in FA but we need to get that vet QB in the building fast then start to build around him even faster...fairly obvious given we have been linked with 3 different guys so early how they really feel about Mitch.

ColGerBear Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Browns signed 2 players I would've loved to see in a Bears uniform... Meanwhile Pace looks to go from subpar QB to Mediocre QB and give up assets in the process. I do not like where this is going so far...
