Imo the only way they trade out if 1 is if they swap picks with Washington and pick up a good amount of extra capital
"Generational QB prospect" LOL. There are FOUR guys now that, according to media hype, meet that criteria.
Bears should build with draft picks and save $ with Fields this year. If they miss the playoffs then go full speed ahead in 2025 with a "generational QB prospect" when Fields has played out his 4th year rookie deal. If they make the playoffs then pay Fields what he deserves.
At the moment Bears are 37:1 to win SB. And it is the Bears, if everything they do is wrong at least play it close to the vest and build up your team with as many draft picks as possible to reduce risk of relying on some overrated media darling that has never played an NFL game.
