Even when a supposed right decision is made, the Bears find a way to fuck it up. And that’s exactly what Ryan Poles did Saturday.
As we know now, Justin Fields is going to the Steelers. All they got in return was a sixth-round pick. That could turn into a fourth if Fields plays a certain amount of time.
That’s it? That’s nothing. The Bears should have gotten at least a third-round. At least. Or maybe Fields for a pick this year? I believe as it stands now, the Bears only have four picks this year. That’s not enough to build this team up and because of this, Poles was forced to go shopping for free agents. Again.
You can’t build a contending team by signing a bunch of free agents. You build it by drafting.
But don’t worry. The Bears made up for it a couple days back by signing Brett Rypien along with his four touchdowns and nine interceptions in ten games played (four years in the league). So instead of finding another quarterback in the later rounds that could possibly be developed alongside with Bagent, they go get this fucking idiot. It’s a younger version of Nathan Peterwhacker.
