Sad News from Chicago Bears Today….
The Chicago Bears head into April’s NFL Draft with the No. 1 and No. 9 picks in the first round.
Chicago owns the No. 1 selection this year after the Carolina Panthers traded their pick to the Bears in order to move up and draft Alabama quarterback Bryce Young No. 1 in 2024.
Armed with the top overall selection, speculation has commenced regarding whether the Bears will use the pick on one of the top quarterback prospects in this year’s class, or trade the pick in order to add assets and build around Justin Fields.
If the Bears keep the pick and select a new franchise quarterback, it would mean the end of Fields’s tenure after just three seasons.
Former Bears signal-caller Jay Cutler said he believed the team should keep Fields and trade the top pick while appearing on Inside the NFL.
“I don’t know what they are gonna do, but what I think they should do is trade down,” said Cutler. “Get some more guys on that team to help out Justin and see what happens.”
