Also, I’ve watched many Bears games since I have friends and work associates that are Bears fans. Fields has had a worse o-line than the Bengals and until DJ Moore came in last season, his WR’s have equaled a pile of crap. Not to mention not much of a running game either, unless you are talking about Fields himself. Fields is not a bad QB, although I’m now hoping he sucks !!

Here’s the silver lining… Yes they got both Fields and Wilson on the cheap. Good for them this year. However, Wilson has pretty much been told he will be the starter, so Field’s is the backup. The Steelers have to decide whether to pick up Fields 5th option, which would pay him $25m next year. Yikes !! If not, they potentially face 2025 without either of these guys and having to start all over again. Good !!

I don’t like him being there either. I think the Bears were a mess and he will fare better in Pittsburgh. That’s my concern.

Now that’s a solid argument.

Not many thought to do both. However, if you are into the sleepers, I give you Jared Wiley, TE, TCU… https://youtu.be/JrpGt6oZvFA?si=QmAcPN86RapG39R0 I like the kid and think he could be much better than being projected. There’s next to no talk of him when discussing TE’s despite being 6’6, 250lbs and having having an elite RAS score of 9.53. Here’s a blurb on him for you TJ. “One of the biggest pass catchers in the country at 6'7", tight end Jared Wiley has unusual coordination and speed for his size. He excels on curl routes against zone, where he's comfortable settling in between defenders and preparing for contact. Though he wasn't often featured as a primary read except on play fakes and trick plays that are designed to get him wide open, Wiley has solid potential to be a more consistent contributor in the passing game. The more solidified part of Wiley's game is as a blocker. He'll lose some reps due to his high pad level, but his activity level, length, aggression, and quickness are major assets. It's not a question of whether he's a good blocker.”

In the above scenario, put me in camp rookie…

Wilson sucks and so did Pickett. Didn't they lose Rudolph? They went from 3 crappy QB's to 1. I guess that's progress.

Traded Pickett? Why? Must have been more going on with that.

Yeah, picture that shit for a minute as Watson. Cleveland fans talking shit like, "Flacco use to play for the Ravens, but now he's a Brown and he's the greatest ever !!" Watson sitting on the bench in street clothes like, "What the fuck ?? You know how much pussy I get ??"

Good. Whatever dysfunction they want to invite into their building, the better.

Regarding Becton and Tart... I won't complain if they do or don't sign either one of those guys honestly. I just won't sit here and think those positions are set. For example, I love the TE Gesicki signing, in addition to bringing back guys we had last season. The TE room is set. Tart has been a headcase with spotty production. Does that continue here? Maybe, maybe not. Becton, minus one season, has been a below average OT. Do we get his rookie season or the recent version? That is why I say it's the "Hope and Pray" strategy. Now don't get me wrong, I will be hoping and praying hard. I just won't be the one surprised should they both end up circling the toilet bowl come season's end. I will be surprised if one or both makes a big impact at their respective positions. If these signings don't keep them from addressing both positions early in the draft, I will like them more. Also, I'm not mad at anyone for disagreeing. Love them all you like !!!

I hate that deal for the Texans. Basically swapped a 1st for a 2nd (DUMB) Swapped a 7th for a 6th (WHO CARES) And a 2nd rounder (NEXT YEAR) I just think giving up the value of the 5th year option a 1st round pick holds makes that trade lopsided.

The Precinct is the spot for my wife and I for special occasions. The Barrel-Cut Filet (MEDIUM RARE AT MOST) is something created by the gods. Add whatever side you want, they are all good. Along with my god-like filet, I drink as many bourbons my health and credit line can handle. The list is amazing and they always have something behind the bar if you ask and willing to pay.

Stop TJ, just stop. Dip those shits in the wonderful steak juice which remains on the plate if you have to. If you aren't getting steak, eat your fries plain. If you want ketchup on your fries, go to McDonald's... LMAO !!!

Happy about Tanner getting back here. Burrow loves that guy. That's good enough for me. With the addition of Gesicki, I agree that the TE group is set.

Ok, disregard everything I just said.

I really don't think this changes draft plans at all. If it does, this isn't going to turn out well. Back to the "Hope and Pray" strategy. Hope and Pray that Becton can remain healthy (is he?) and that Pollack motivates him back to his rookie season level. Color me skeptical, but all we can do is that.

And when all was said and done, the Chargers dump both Mike Williams and Keenan Allen with a net return of a 4th round pick…

For the record, ketchup should be banned from any Jeff Ruby Steakhouse. God damned travesty.

It must also be said that this is the longest title to any thread in the history of this board !!

Many, including myself, have complained about how Mixon can disappear at times. Dont get me wrong, I will miss him and appreciate what he did here, but part also feels like it was just time.

Pop-Tart = Ass

If the thought is replacing Reader with Tart, that is going to be one massive FAIL. Do NOT like that move. Draft a new guy !!

Bonus, I just read the Bengals are paying Vonn Bell the vet minimum on his 1 year deal and the Panthers are responsible for the remainder of his $6 million deal he made with them last season. NICE !!

The 4th pick in the 7th round? Seeing as how we were going to release Mixon for nothing, that's a solid pick if you are targeting those back of the roster or developmental guys that you don't want to risk losing as an UDFA that might decide to go elsewhere.
