Slappy Mc Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 2 minutes ago, ARTMONK HOF said: Albert Breer The Commanders have taken calls on backup QB Jacoby Brissett, but the price has been prohibitive for other teams—they’ve asked for a Day 2 pick. We’ll see if the price comes down with Josh Dobbs going for a late-round pick swap. I would stick to my guns on Brissett. Howell is entrenched, but what happens if he gets hurt. Brissett's cost to keep isn't a hindrance. Tell the other teams, this is the price, pay it or we keep him. (Same should be said for Chase Young) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The analytics would indicate that Young is available about 30% less than Sweat. When Young is available, Young averages 10% less sacks per game, almost 50% qb hits per game, 15%< TFLs per game, etc. Chase Young is the splashy player. #2 overall, etc. Fan favorite, etc. That is why we kept him. (if we do) Not this year. All the pressures, same sacks, Chase is 3 years younger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naptownskinsfan Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Apparently we had no clear desire to trade Sweat, but the Bears hopped in with an offer that couldn’t be refused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said in the NFL News thread, it's actually a pretty decent return on investment. From the 26th pick and a 5 year rental, 35.5 sacks, 9 FFs and 1 sweet INT TD against Dallas for a (potentially) early 2nd in next year's draft is a good deal to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTMONK HOF Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Grant Paulsen This isn't surprising. I had heard he wanted he was hoping to end up with the Falcons. I think the Bears will either have to pay him $25M+ AAV or tag him. Ben Devine Newest Chicago #Bears DE Montez Sweat indicated that he’s not currently ready to sign an extension. “I just want to consider everything around me before I make a decision.” 😳 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balls in his court and he can make some money AND eventually go where he wants to go. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I think the Bears got a very good player for a modest price. I also think its extremely stupid if they can't get a deal done with him. I figured that is something they would've worked out with this agent prior to making the trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we ain't the dumbest team in the league after all . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they have contact with the agent for a player on another team is the question. I know in baseball in the off-season they grant those requests, but I don’t think it happens in season. The Bears can still franchise tag him. Given the lack of potential impact edge rushers in free agency and the draft, it’s still a solid move from the Bears I think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor made Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Montez was a great athlete and an above average player but he wasn't a killer. Let's be real, no one feared Montez Sweat. He beat up on bad teams/players. I'm not sure what on earth the Bears are doing. They should be rebuilding, but I think the GM is starting to feel the heat after sticking with Justin Fields.
