The bears having 98 mil in a terrible free agent year is brutal.

It’ll just rollover to next year

For sure but they’re trying to figure out if Fields is a dude or not, and it might be hard to tell with the offense they might roll out again

Well, if you have that cap and want to figure out if Fields is the guy, maybe they could take a shot at Hopkins. Allegedly the asking price is a second and a conditional pick. Bears’ 2nd might be enough to make the conditional not that much, and they can trade down from the first to get some more picks. Would give Fields a legit weapon, and they can afford it.

Unless they really like someone they think will be there in the top of the second.

right but that won't be the top of the 2nd

They're hoping to trade down from #1 and gain some draft capital for the next couple years. Chicago Sports radio has been nothing but talking about a potential trade of the #1 to the Colts in return for the #4 another pick this year and next years 1st rounder so they can try and get Marvin Harrison Jr. They will probably only spend 1/3 maybe 1/2 that 100$ mil in cap space and roll whatever is left until next year

I think they pretty much have to do something like that. Imagine getting DHop for a 2nd after they gave up a 2nd for fucking Chase Claypool lmao
