You will get absolutely no return on value at this point. I know a lot of people are going to say that some contending team will give up something crazy like a third or something, but that simply will not happen. If it does I will gladly admit that I was wrong. My guess is they’d get a 5th at best, and that would include taking on the majority of his contract.

I just hope at the very least we can player for player trade him for DJ Moore If DJ Moore is the name of a new gourmet peanut butter and jelly sandwich then that may be possible. If you mean DJ Moore the WR from Carolina then you may want to temper your expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case Cooper could have easily known Watson was going there. You and @StLunatic88 are 100% right, my bad. For some reason the Watson drama seemed like it dragged on for months.

Likely would need to be a late 4th to mid 5th at beat as a stand alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC is a clear fit for Quinn IMO given how badly they will need pass rush to get past Allen & the Bills…a 4th given how late they pick feels fair for both sides IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we get that unless we eat a ton of money. They don’t have the cap space to take on 1/3 of what he makes. Add that to the Odell Rumors and they really can’t afford it.

I suspect for a 4th we probably would be happy to eat the cap...it's not like we need it this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears would have to make some moves to free up enough cap room themselves. They can only eat about 6.7M of Quinn's 12.8M salary. They would need to eat about 3M more for Quinn to fit in KC.

Like I said I wasn't on either side and didn't and don't know the exact circumstances, I was just trying to clear up what I saw as a miscommunication.

According to OTC we still have $6.9 million in cap space right now so I suspect we could still do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the cap would already be account for given the salary that already counts towards the Bears cap...especially after 6 games so far no?

You’re right. His salary is already accounted for against the Bears’ cap numbers. They could theoretically eat all of the salary money.

It still won’t work with KC. They have 3 million in space we have 6 million and Quinn is owed 9 million. Another team maybe… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
