Chicago Bears/NFL fans? What should they do?

So the Bears got their man in Ben Johnson. They don’t usually go for the new shiny toy, that’s an exciting change of philosophy. I still think Poles should’ve been fired. His drafts continue to look worse and worse.

Everyone knew Jalen Carter was best player left on the board in 2023. We went Darnell Wright, who is good. Carter looks like a future HOF’er. Punter in the 4th last year. A lineman who didn’t play all year in the 3rd. Not good enough.

Agreed on all counts.

I’m skeptical of anything they do, but I’m pleased with Johnson and his DC coach, Allan, who has HC exp.

You left out one thing: Poles effectively passed on Stroud, Daniel’s, and Maye. For a guy whose ceiling is probably Russell Wilson.
