May Day 10 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 If I were Vrabel, I would stay far from New England. Expectations are sky high there, even at the beginning of a rebuild. He is following in the shoes of arguably the greatest of all-time. There are going to be his choice of suitors which would be better circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) 7 hours ago, The Jokeman said: New QB or next generational WR in Marvin Harrison Jr? or a possible trade down if they have faith in Fields.  Five years ago I would have said take a QB no matter what. But I've changed my tune on this. I think QBs like Hurts and Tua and Purdy have shown that having a good QB plus elite weapons is maybe the best path to a Super Bowl. Especially if the QB is mobile which naturally increases the margin for error. You need a great defense too, and the Bears are close. They could trade down for a boatload of picks, draft MHJ (giving them arguably two #1 WRs with DJ Moore already there), build up the OL and defense, and head into 2024 ready to make waves in a relatively average division. I sincerely think they could compete for a Super Bowl next year if they have a great draft, and they'll likely still have several high picks in the 2025 draft from the trade down.  Not an easy decision but I'd ride with Fields and try to build the most elite possible team around him.  Edited January 11 by HappyDays 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Not an easy decision but I'd ride with Fields and try to build the most elite possible team around him. Â Â MHJ is just too good to pass up, imo. Especially when you have even a half-decent QB. Â Plus, I'm not sold on Caleb Williams as such a sure thing. Â MHJ #1, the best OT at #9, then Defense the rest of they way. Maybe grab a Center in the mid/late rounds. Â The only argument I can agree with for picking Williams is it kicks the QB Contract can down the road a few more year as Fields is already going into his 4th year. Â But I think they can still pivot away from Fields before they have to pay him, and will at least have the foundation set for any other QB they acquire in 2026.
