The Chicago Bears offseason revolves around one primary

One main topic has dominated the Chicago Bears offseason: what should be done at quarterback? Do they want to choose Caleb Williams in the draft or trade for Justin Fields and draft someone else?

Adam Schefter of ESPN NFL Insiders reports that the Bears are thinking of rostering two signal-callers.

Bears fans, hold off on clamoring for Tyson Bagent just yet.
Should Chicago be unable to capitalize on Washington’s evident interest in Caleb Williams, someone need to be fired.
“As improbable as it may seem, the Bears have discussed the idea of carrying both quarterbacks,” Schefter stated before to the Super Bowl on ESPN. “Keeping Fields and taking the guy at one.” Will they get around to that now? Though it’s difficult to fathom, the group has had that discussion.

The Bears have demanded “a historical haul” in order to advance to the first overall pick, according to Ian Rappoport of NFL Network.

For the Bears to drop out of the running for the first overall pick, something extraordinary would need to happen, according to Rapoport. “There are several implications for that piece of information. First of all, that suggests they would probably select a quarterback at number one unless they receive some kind of outrageous draft compensation for a player attempting to trade up for Caleb Williams.

Is this merely part of the Bears’ ploy to boost their asking price on both Fields and the No. 1 pick? Most likely, but even if they choose not to follow through, it’s still a wise decision. Fields just achieved career highs in completion %, success rate, and throwing yards. Although he still doesn’t pass well, he isalso becoming better every year. At the very least, drafting Williams first overall allows Chicago to assess Fields’ future thoroughly before making a decision.

Right now, sitting rookie quarterbacks is also showing to be a very wise move. Both Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes, the starting quarterbacks in Super Bowl LVIII, started their rookie campaigns on the sidelines under an experienced coach. The same holds true for Lamar Jackson, the MVP of this year, and Jordan Love, the standout rookie.

It’s not flawless in every situation. Prior to his breakthrough season in his third year, Josh Allen had a string of bad seasons where he started every game. Without having to sit down, C.J. Stroud, the offensive rookie of the year, tore up the NFL right away. It’s not required for every individual. It’sIt’s simply common sense to let a collegiate player familiarize themselves with the strategy and timing of a professional team before throwing them in with the big boys.

Furthermore, it makes sense to take as many swings as possible at quarterback. Josh Rosen didn’t sit well with the Arizona Cardinals, so the very next year, they selected Kyler Murray first overall. Six of the past ten drafts have seen the New England Patriots choose a quarterback, and five of those picks have gone on to start games for their NFL teams.

Every club wants to have a quarterback of the highest caliber. Given that the Bears’ lone Hall of Fame quarterback passed away in 1950, they must use every opportunity to locate their man.
