I am starting to think there is a sector of Bears fans that are dumber than cub fans.
What exactly was Poles going to do with Fields?
People want to blame Getsy (I did). He got another job. So now we look at Fields.
It appears that potentially nobody wants him. If that is the case, the Bears should not want him either. tht is wht is happening.
That is not Poles fault. In actuality it worked out perfectly. They get a better QB than what was out there last year. Yes Stroud appears to be better than thought but they were not taking him at #1.
Maybe Poles turned down a 3rd round or even a 2, we don't know.
What appears to have happened is that all of football sees that Fields is a great athlete but maybe not an NFL QB and not one they are investing heavily in.
