Yeah, the table is set for them to get a top guy and crush it. Hard to imagine that whomever they get will be better than Stroud, but if they find somebody comparable it could work out great.

Stroud is a very good young QB but Slowik is going to be a head coach somewhere very soon.

I'd stay away from Maye, getting Trubisky vibes from him, it'd be Daniels for me if I'm in the top 3.

I think Maye is solid but I don't think he's a franchise player, I think his absolute best case scenario is more mobile Matt Ryan but he could just as easily end up being Alex Smith.

Just armchair thinking here, but when you have a guy with super elite arm talent like this, but who doesn't take what the defense gives him at times, wouldn't you want to know how coachable he is? Especially if the athleticism of the defensive linemen he's playing against in the NFL will be much greater and negate some of his escapability, throwing windows will be tighter, reads will need to be made faster, all else.
The attitude coming out of his camp seems to be more that he's a finished product, teams should be considering him as such. Is that the case in his mind, too? |

Dude throws 6 TDs in his only start. That's gotta matter. Especially when there are real concerns that the guy doesn't process very well. |

I guess if you're the Bears, you might feel that Fields' limitations as a passer are the team's primary problem and that Williams should develop into an elite passer. On the surface level it makes sense irrespective of the staff.

Deion Sanders acted this way and wouldn’t even talk to teams that didn’t have a high enough pick to take him.
He turned out fine and so will Caleb. He’s gonna be good. If any franchise deserves a good QB it’s the Bears |

I wasn’t alive at the time to know if he was a projected #1 overall but I doubt it in such a stacked draft. That’s insane confidence.. or maybe he had conversations with teams that led him to believe there was absolutely no way he’d fall beyond a certain pick. |

Whoa, cornerback is a hell of a lot different than QB.
