You know, I keep going back and forth. I think the one that has the most talent is WIlliams. I just keep getting this feeling he is going to be a head case. If you take him, then you have to be sure you can guide him in a good direction, knowing his father is whispering in his ear. If you don't take him, then I think Maye. Is Maye any better than JF? Not sure and so you go back to that question with Williams out of the equation. Of course, if you trade JF, you HAVE to pick someone. And hope you got it right. This is really pivotal for the Bears, and I don't think that there are too many that are really solid in the belief they will get it right. Lots of faith, hope and optimism in the new management, but still not sure that people think they will get it right anyway.
It is clear we are overestimating Fields, if not we would be getting a clear mid 1st rd pick, no? He wasnt that good here, if you look at the bigger picture, and if Poles cannot find a guy at least a tad better than him, with two 1st draft picks, well it would be time to say goodbye.
Yeah, I get what you are saying. And you may be right. I don't know. But every single team was wrong about Brady. 6 times. So I don't weigh that too much.

If you want to read some stupid shit (of course you do), check out the kind of questions these kids are being asked at the combine. And some of the stupid answers.

He doesn't have an injury history...so I'd say its not a huge deal...and he's only going to be available to MAYBE a handful of teams, but most likely just ONE team...so that team is the only team that needs his medical history.
Apparently he is only giving his medicals to the teams he's meeting w/with at the combine or private workouts. Basically his group said, if you don't have a shot of drafting me you don't need this. He does have a point; even if it's odd. Between this and the no agent is giving me some R Smith vibes though. Just feels like everything will be a thing w/C-Will even if they shouldn't be.
Yeah, he said he'd do a physical with every team he takes a visit too. This isn't the biggest of deals to me. Like you touched on...the Dad may be a bigger pain in the ass. Dude knows business, and there may come a point where Caleb is gonna have to tell him what HE wants...but yeah...I'm already seeing how that second contract negotiation is gonna go.
I think Fields processes just fine...I think his issue is he won't throw to a receiver he doesn't trust unless they are clearly wide open. There's tons of examples of him throwing with anticipation this year to Moore and Kmet. He won't do it to anyone else though.
That's an interesting take. I think Williams is going to be a head case to deal with, I really do.
We'll see. From coaches perspectives, none of them have said anything bad...going back to his high school coach. Now, I take that with a grain of salt...but there hasn't been a hint of a whisper that Caleb is difficult. The Dad and his advisers may be another issue...but in reality, thats gonna be the case with any super star QB. You're gonna have EXTRA to deal with when it comes to them. You don't think the Chiefs have to deal with extra BS with Mahomes and Kelce? I'll take the extra BS if it means the kid is a super star.

LOL! That negotiation will be worse then this boards discussion on whether it is better to pick C.Will or roll with Fields. To be a fly on that wall during that convo could be fun.

HAH!!! I'm envisioning it being like that...but who knows...we may be surprised.
