Nightmare scenario if true.

Glad it wasn't us. Frank must want Levis bad.

I’m really surprised they made a deal this early. It’s not like Carolina offered a king’s ransom that blows you away. At 9, they’ll get a solid player, but the 2 game changing defenders, Anderson and Carter, will both be off the board.

I'm surprised Carolina didn't have to give up more as well.

I'm not. Bears fans pipe dream of getting our 1 and 2 and next year's 1 and 2 was exactly that, a pipe dream. Quite frankly this was an overpay by Carolina, but now they get Stroud.

Welp, it’s either Levis or Richardson then, unless Carolina or Houston throws a curveball.

If it’s between those two, I want Richardson.

Jalen Carter and wait until next year. Tank for #1 and get whoever the top guy is then.

Rumor now is Arizona is shopping the 3rd pick. Colts might be left with the 4th choice.

I would have thought we would have to give up at least what the Giants did in '04 to get Eli: #4 overall, this years 3rd rounder, next years 1st and 5ths.

For the Bears to move down 5 more spots the Panthers gave up the #9 overall, end of 2nd rounder, next year's 1st, '25's 2nd, and a productive WR. Seems pretty comparable to above when you consider the Bears are moving down 5 more spots than what the Chargers did in '04.

Depends on how you value DJ Moore. Still think it's an overpay, but that's irrelevant unless they really love Levis.
