This transcription discusses the NFL draft and potential trade scenarios involving the Chicago Bears. It explores the Bears' options for their number one pick and discusses the two best defensive players available, Jalen Carter and Will Anderson. The transcription then delves into the potential trade partners for the Bears, starting with the Houston Texans, who have a high number of draft picks and a need for a quarterback. It also discusses the Arizona Cardinals and their salary cap situation, as well as the Indianapolis Colts, who are in desperate need of a quarterback. The transcription touches on the Colts' coaching situation and the possibility of trading up for the number one pick. Overall, it provides insights into the different teams' needs and potential trade scenarios. Okay we're going to do a little test run here. It's going to be about the NFL draft, the Chicago Bears, that number one pick. To sell or not to sell? I'd kind of be bored, start out with just really the two best players available if, just on defense, which would fit what the Bears are looking to fill if they stay with Justin Fields at Squareback, which is a whole other conversation to be honest. And then from there I'm going to basically just go down the teams in the top ten that the Bears could pair up with and trade down with. It's really going to be the meat and the potatoes of this test run of just the teams, just some breakdowns, just some thoughts of what these teams could be thinking about, what they might be thinking about doing, and so on. So I'm just going to start with the two best players available. I'll just start with Jalen Carter, defensive tackle from Georgia and just, he is just a perfect fit for what the Bears scheme is. It's just, it's almost to perfection. I'm sure Matt Averfoos is drooling at the idea of having him as a defensive tackle on his defense. There's a lot of NFL scouts last year that have said that he might actually be the best defensive tackle of the group in terms of last year's Georgia defense, which had a lot of NFL caliber talent that came into the league. Then you move on to the defensive end, Will Anderson, which he just seems like a sure thing. Not that there's ever a sure thing in the NFL draft, but I put it under just, you just write his name down, you don't overthink it, and you turn the pick in, and that's it. You're just happy. Last year he had 31 tackles for a loss, which is just ridiculous. I mean, that's really the two players, if I'm a Bears, those are one of the two players I want. As a fan, I'd be happy with either or. And then from there, just go to the tree, if the Bears open the tree down, we'll just start at number two. But the Houston Texans, just, we'll just start, what a dumpster fire of a franchise, right? Like, they're just, like, what direction are they going? Like, last year, and it's just, it's a hot mess. Like, they're going to have approximately 47.6 million in cap space, with 12 draft picks, which, I don't know where that ranks, but it has to be one of the highest in the league in terms of going into this draft. They have two number one, two first-round picks, a second-round pick, two thirds, a fourth, a fifth, four sixth-round picks, and a seventh-round pick, with next year having their own, they own Cleveland's first-round pick and their fourth-round pick next year as well as part of that, the Sean Watson trade. And six of their 12 picks are in the top 100. Obviously, they need a quarterback, and the win against the Colts could prove them costly, which, just love you, Smith. Just thank you. We build that man a statue outside of Soldier Field, if not Arlington Heights, when that comes around. Why receiver Brandon Cook? Brandon Cook's once out. He wanted out at the trade deadline. He pretty much sat the following week after the deadline passed. The cap hit is, seems like it's going to be steep for a wide receiver. It's going to be turning 30 to start the 2023 season, this following season. And there's reports that their left tackle, Larry Mutunsel, which is one of the better, if not one of the best, left tackles in the league, he's looking to get paid again. He wants to, he was quoted to say he wants to reset the market. He's going to be turning 29 going into the final year of his contract, with a cap hit of approximately $35 million, which, if you're that good, then it's worth every penny. They, like I said, they could, you know, look to trade up with the Bears, trade down one spot, with a fear of the Indianapolis Colts, where we'll get here too shortly, of the fear of, or the Colts going to trade up and take the quarterback that we want. Which, again, this just goes back to that last regular season game, how costly this could be to the Houston Texans. Moving on to the Arizona Cardinals at number three, they got $22.8 million in cap space, with just $5 million in cap space the following season. That's part of that Kyler Murray contract. Kicking in, they're going to have nine draft picks, first to second, two third-round picks, fourth to fifth, to sixth, and seventh. Part of this, too, is projections of compensatory picks. I got that through Tankathon.com. I looked at Pro Football Focus, and it was just, you know, some of the stuff just wasn't accurate, so I just went to Tankathon and got that stuff. Kind of going back to Kyler Murray, though, coming back from an ACL injury, when does he come back? He just had surgery maybe a week or two ago, and just the time period in terms of just the recovery, what is that going to look like? Is he going to miss some games? And now, with a new front office and coaching staff coming in, you're going to have a quarterback that probably won't be at OTAs or minicamps. He might be thrown by training camp, but you're going to have to learn a new offense. Just on the coaching staff, how does this coaching staff and front office view Kyler Murray? I think, personally, that Arizona Cardinals are going to regret caving in to Kyler Murray when he pretty much had what is the equivalent of almost like a ransom note of wanting to get paid. I just think when you're putting in a clause in a contract for your franchise quarterback to study film, you have to stop right there and go, wait a minute, is this guy really a franchise quarterback if I had to put this in here? But they paid him way too early. They could have just said, no, we're going to wait, but they didn't. And also, with the search with the new GM and coach, is the owner basically going to tell the head coach and the general manager that they're looking to hire that Kyler is here to stay? And if that's the case, that could either keep or push people away from taking that job. Arizona Cardinals also, if they keep Kyler Murray and they believe him, their team, they could also be looking to trade down to gather more assets because they're just not very good up front. There's reports coming out about DeAndre Hopkins who would probably be looking to get traded. Who knows what they could get back in return for that. As a Bears fan, I don't think I would give up more than a fourth-round pick and it would be the Eagles' fourth-round pick in the Robert Quinn trade. I just think I would not give up a second or third-round pick for DeAndre Hopkins. He's got two years left on his deal. He's over the age of 30. I'd rather draft a receiver or two and develop that way before I give up draft capital. I think the Bears have too many needs to just be sending draft picks away. When Ryan Poles says he wants to build through the draft and then be giving up draft picks for veteran wide receivers that might be slowly on the other side of their career. I just think it's contradicting if they were to do that. And now to the team that I think everyone, every Bears fan has circled as the prime trade candidate and that's the Indianapolis Colts. When you have your general manager coming out in the roundabout way saying that we'll do anything it takes to get a quarterback, you're kind of, I'm sure that was music to Ryan Poles' ears when he heard that. They just love to see it, love to hear it, love to see it. They got $32.5 million in cap space. We're going to have eight draft picks. First, second, third, fourth, fifth, two sixth round picks and a seventh. Who's their head coach? If they hire Jeff Saturday and they keep Jeff Saturday as head coach, that is just, that's a Jim Earth they hire all day long. I mean, there's the thing that goes players play, owners own. That's just ridiculous if they keep Jeff Saturday. It's almost an insult. It's not almost, it is an insult to the coaching practice that you bring in a guy with no head coaching experience in the NFL college. I want to say coach high school, but this ain't high school. This is the NFL. Why are you doing that, Jim Earth say? Come on now. They've been riding the quarterback here. This franchise hasn't been the same since Andrew Luck retired. Now, do I blame him? No. Future franchise, I don't want to say future franchise. You had a franchise quarterback in Andrew Luck and he just kind of had an about face and retired. I've read some articles about why he retired and I commend him for doing it because, you know, why play a game and become miserable? It's to be commended really and have your health and your sanity. Going to Matt Ryan, it appears he's going to be released or he retires one or the other. He's going to be 38 years old. I think with them benching him, I think it was kind of a polite way of saying you're done. There's reports that Jim Earth say is done with the quarterback carousel. It's going for veteran quarterbacks. Now, again, the report, so who knows how much truth there is to that when you have your general manager coming out and saying that the target is to get a quarterback. What does that mean? Is that free agency? Is Jimmy Garoppolo, also known as Jimmy G, or now with their car becoming available, do they look at Avenue as well? Again, I think this goes back to though Jeff Saturday being a head coach. It just seems like franchise malpractice, to be honest, again. It is interesting though, Chris Ballard, the general manager of the Indianapolis Colts and Ryan Poles do have a relationship going back to Kansas City. They had a time where they were in the same building, working for the same team. That relationship has to help in terms of starting the talks if Chris Ballard is talking to Ryan Poles about trading up to number one, which I have a feeling it will be more at the direction of Jim Earth, say, wanting to trade up to number one to get the quarterback. It is interesting though, going forward though, regardless, is that they do have some players that are going to come due to get paid, namely Jonathan Taylor, the running back. In today's NFL, the running back is just getting devalued more and more and more. One of the wide receivers, Michael Pittman Jr., even just thinking out loud here, Michael Pittman Jr. could be a nice package together if the Indianapolis Colts do look to trade up. If I could get a future one of Indianapolis and they have Jeff Saturday as their head coach, I am taking that all day because there is no way that this team, the way they played, could be at least a top ten pick. If that is, if you are the Bears, you are thrilled as a future one. I just think the Indianapolis Colts might be the prime candidate. I will go into more later about what I would, if I am the Bears, how far I would be willing to trade down. Moving on to the CL Seahawks number five, which is actually Denver's first round pick, there is no way in TL's wildest dreams that they thought Denver's pick would be the fifth pick in the draft. I didn't think it would be this high. It was just an absolute train wreck in Denver this season. CL has just over 52 million in cap space, which is amazing, really, considering the season that they had. A lot of people, myself included, thought they might be one of the worst teams in the NFL. They got nine draft picks, two first round picks, two second round picks, a third, a fourth, two fifths, and a sixth. I think the thing with scale they have to ask themselves is, can they count on Geno Smith producing at the level that he did? He was unbelievable. I don't know if I've ever, some of the highlights or some of the games I was able to watch, I don't think I've ever seen him play that well. It was unbelievable. Credit to the coaching staff in CL for doing that job. Also, for Geno, he's going to be a free agent. Talk about payday. Wow. That man could be looking to get paid. Good for him. I'm all for the players getting paid. You got to take every dime you can get. With that being said, with Geno being looking for a payday, is CL that team? Would they be looking, would they say, hey, well, let's run this back with you, or could they look elsewhere? With that in mind, 52 million dollars in cap space and say they do look to trade up, I mean, they have all Denver's draft capital. I look at other teams' draft capital like a credit card. You just swipe. It's not really yours. It's like house money. 52 million in cap space and a rookie contract, rookie quarterback contract, sounds really inviting. That sounds something that they could really look into. Also, you can put them under Jimmy Garoppolo. There's a podcast I listened to that if Jimmy G would have gotten a release from the 49ers, CL would have swooped in and taken them. That's part of the reason why San Francisco did not release them because they had that worry that CL could do that. Also, you could throw in Derrick Carr. There's another team that could be looking to, again, having Denver's draft picks, you could say, hey, we'll give you Denver's future one, or I don't even know if I would give up a future one for Derrick Carr just considering the contract. That's the other thing is it's kind of a player in the contract that makes the value of these players. That's something that CL is in an interesting spot with being at five. They could also trade down to get more. They need help on defense. There's just a lot of ways they can go. Number six, Detroit Lions. This is the LA Rams pick. 30 million in cap space, eight draft picks, two first-round picks, two second-round picks, a third, a fifth, and two sixths. Detroit Lions, man, if they hit another home run with another draft, they're not going to be the same old Lions anymore. They ain't going away. Credit to them, they're not going anywhere. If people think they're going to go somewhere, they're not. They're going to hang around for a while. The big question, though, is Jared Goff. He had a great season. Do you keep them or do you trade them? I would right now lean on keeping them because I think the big question Detroit has to ask themselves going into this draft, is there a quarterback in this draft that's better than Jared Goff? If there isn't, you keep them. If there is, you can make the argument, I'll just say, I think it's kind of unanimous, one-two being Bryce Young and T.J. Shroud. Let's say with a quarterback from Kentucky, Will Levis is sitting there. Now, is he worth the sixth pick? That's another discussion, but you could take Will Levis and just sit him. Now, taking him at number six just to sit him on a bench, that would be a bold, bold move to make considering they could have needs on defense, defensive line, someone else can rush the passer and just make that team a lot better. Like I said, this ain't the same old Lions anymore. They're on their way. Like I said, they're just not the same old Lions that you can chalk up a W every time you play them. That ain't the case anymore. Moving on to number seven, the Las Vegas Raiders, 22.3 million in cap space. They got 11 draft picks. They got a first, a second, a third, a fourth, three fifth-round picks, two sixth-round picks, and two seventh-round picks. Are they in on Tom Brady? I mean, it was pretty much once the Raiders season ended, those rumors started, really, and they probably might have been starting before that. Could they be interested in Jimmy G? Josh McDaniels, Jimmy G, the familiarity with one another is just, you know, you have to make that connection. And I think the bigger, the other question is, what do the Raiders get in return for Derek Carr? Apparently, he's due a good sum of money after, like, a few days after the Super Bowl. I can see Derek Carr getting traded during, like, the week, like, the media week of the Super Bowl. I don't fully recall, but Matthew Stafford was traded around that same time, so that could happen. But trading Derek Carr would give the Raiders approximately $54 million in cap space compared to the $22 million that they have now, so it would really open up the cap space. They got that according to overthecap.com. With all that being said, too, with Derek Carr moving on out, what does Devonta Adams do? You know, you leave Green Bay, you leave a future Hall of Fame quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, to go to play with your best friend in Las Vegas, and here you are a year later, and your best friend's out. He's gone. They pretty much kicked him to the curb. That could be very interesting. And then I was looking into this. I thought, well, they wouldn't really spend a year in Jared Stidham, would they? Well, I come to find out that Jared Stidham is going to be a free agent. So where does that leave the Raiders at quarterback? If you're going to kick one to the curb with Derek Carr, where does that, you know, in many ways, it leaves them with a need at quarterback. Who knows what they do? I wonder if the Raiders have like a handshake agreement with some team somewhere to do a trade. Because you don't just sit Derek Carr, you know, and not have something in mind. Because the way they did it, you're basically protecting your investment, which I understand that. You don't do that unless you have a team that you've been talking to to take them. That's just my two cents. It wouldn't make sense any other way. Moving on to the Atlanta Falcons, $74 million in cap space. I think they're number two with the Bears in terms of cap space. Nine draft picks. They have a first, a second, a third, two fourths, two fifths, and two sevenths run picks. They can put another candidate to trade up. I think the question is, what do they see in Desmond Ritter, the quarterback they just took this past draft? And again, kind of the same question as Detroit, has to ask themselves, are the quarterbacks in this draft better than Desmond Ritter? I also think, like, do they address their defensive free agency? Because it is not very good. And it hasn't been very good for a while. Because outside of A.J. Terrell, their corner, like what other difference makers do they have on defense? And A.J. Terrell is one of the better corners in the league that I feel like not a lot of people know about. I kind of get the loss because, you know, I'm sure the statistics show him getting burned all the time. But some of the advanced stats show he's one of the better corners. But again, if you don't have a pass rush, you don't have, you know, if the quarterback has all day to throw, it doesn't matter how good your corners are. They can't hold on, they can't cover receivers forever. So moving on to the Carolina Panthers here, they only have $2 million in cap space. And you might say, $2 million, that's it? Well, when you have $28 million in dead cap, which is the most going, most of the NFL going into this offseason, that's, you know, you can contribute a lot of that to the Christian McCaffrey trade. Just getting, they're just, I want to put them right up there with Houston. Where are they going? They have a great defense, some great players on defense. I was interested to see at the deadline this past season what they would do. Would they trade some of their Arthur Burns, some of their prime defensive talent for more picks? Or would they stay put and they ended up staying put? The thing is, though, there's no quarterback of the future. I mean, what are you going to do there? Are you going to keep Sam Darnold? I mean, come on. And then the thing that was really amazing is after the Christian McCaffrey trade and releasing Baker Mayfield, they really, they played really well. I mean, if you would have told me after all of that they would be picking ninth, I would have thought they would be top five. I mean, there's just a lot of teams, like, you would thought they would be in front of at least the Raiders at seven. Then you go to the sixth, Detroit, yeah, with the Rams. Like, you could, it was just, especially the Rams. No one, they just, the Rams just fell off a cliff. But that's also, with the Rams, I contribute that to when you have the mentality of F the picks, it's going to come back to bite you. But going back to Carolina, what, again, what direction do they go in? Like, what do they do? They're kind of in no man's land. At least, I just feel like it's the same thing with Atlanta. I just feel like they're in no man's land. Like, what are they doing? You kind of have to pick a direction and stick to it. So, going down to the team, the last team in the top ten is the Philadelphia Eagles. And talk about just the richer getting richer. You got one of the best teams in the NFL, you have Jaylen Hurts, who just took a massive jump this year. They got $12 million in cap space. They got six picks this coming draft. Two first-round picks, a second, a third, a fifth, and a sixth. I mean, they're just a team that could trade down more and collect more draft capital. I think, like, the Will Levis is a prime spot to go here at ten. Some teams behind them, I'm not going to really touch on those teams, but you just talk about Washington Commanders, Tennessee Titans, the Jets, just to name a few, could all trade into this spot and take a quarterback. I believe Tennessee is 11, so there could be teams that could be looking to jump to get to ten to take a quarterback. It's just the Eagles are just hitting home runs. It's unbelievable. But also, on the flip side of that, they do have a lot of players that are coming due to get paid, and the number one being Jaylen Hurts. He had a great season. I think the prime concern, though, if you're the Eagles with Jaylen Hurts, and a lot, like, you can go under with the same thing with Lamar Jackson, is these quarterbacks that run, they're one hit away. They're one hit away from being done for a week, two weeks, three weeks with Lamar Jackson. He's pretty much done for the year, because I don't think anyone's expecting him to win their playoff game. They're one hit away, and if you're going to play the way that they play, you're going to have to invest in a good backup quarterback. For a backup quarterback, they can run something similar to what they're running now. That's just something that the Eagles got to think about going forward. So, that was really the top ten. I did have a couple X factors going into this offseason. I start with the wide receiver trade market, because there's always wide receivers that want out, every offseason. I mean, like, last offseason, Tyreek Hill, AJ Brown, Hollywood Brown, it's almost like clockwork. I mean, do I blame them? No. If you can get that money, go get it. And I have a few wide receivers. To start, this is just a pie in the sky, hope. Hope on just a complete dream, which I don't think would happen. It would be a dream if it would happen, especially if it happened to the Bears. Again, don't see it happening. It's just something that could, for people to think about. And I'm starting with Justin Jefferson, wide receiver from the Vikings. Probably one of the top wide receivers, if not the top wide receiver in the NFL. Him and Jermar Chase is probably 1-2, 1-A, 1-B, however you want to order it. He's going into his fourth year in his rookie contract, and you might say, well, they got the fifth year option, what's the big deal? Tyler Murray did the same thing after year three, looking to get paid. It's just a different position, and it's just the same tactic, though, of, hey, I want to get paid. Trade me or pay me, basically. And I think, too, something to think about is Kirk Cousins. At some point with Minnesota, it's going to end with Kirk Cousins. And when it does, what are you going to do? I mean, Kirk Cousins had a run there, he was playing really well. But anyone, especially for people in the NFC North that know that the old Kirk Cousins is going to rear his ugly head at some point. And when it does, it's usually never pretty. So, it's just something to think about with Justin Jefferson. What does that entail for Justin? I'm sure he's, in the back of his mind, that's something he's also thinking about, too. So, that could be very interesting, if he were to do that. Next wide receiver, D.J. Moore, wide receiver from Carolina. Another, it was one of the hot names of the trade deadline. Was Carolina going to trade him, was there not? I would make the argument, if you were Carolina at the time, if you were going to trade Christian McCaffrey, trade everybody. Just blow it up. But they didn't. He's a young wide receiver with three years of control. For the Bears, if I were to trade the draft capital, this is probably where I would go. The three years of control, it would make sense in that way. Moving on to the next, some of these wide receivers I have next, I put in teams that are just in cap hell. They've got little to no room to move around. What's going to happen next? Who knows? But I'm going to start with wide receiver Mike Evans. I think he's going to have one year left for the season. He'll be 30 years old. There is health concerns. It just seems like he's just, there's always, he's got something nagging. Probably will be irrelevant if Brady comes back. I feel like with Tom Brady, though, I don't know, if he does come back, I don't know if it's going to be with Tampa. I think he's going to go elsewhere. Another wide receiver on Tampa, on the Bucs, is Chris Godwin. Again, he's a little bit younger with more control. It's probably going to cost more to acquire. But my thing is, if you're looking at Chris Godwin, I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him or him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. I'm not going to trade him. The cap hit, along with him being going to be 32, I have some concerns about trading. If he were talking like a second or third round pick, no way. No way. I would give him, I believe I said earlier, the Eagles fourth round pick. And I think with that, I'm being generous. I think for the Bears, you have so many other needs. Mainly, for me specifically, it's offensive line. You've got to protect the quarterback. Whether that's Justin Fields or someone else going forward, you have to protect the quarterback. Justin Fields took an absolute beating. And I understand people want the wide receivers, but I feel like you have to protect the quarterback because it was just obnoxious, the beating he took this year. And going on from that, kind of talked about throughout, is just the quarterback there still. Where does Jimmy G and Derrick Carr end up? And how does that affect the draft? Because there could be trades, there could be a number of other things that could really change the dynamic in terms of teams that need quarterbacks and teams that don't. So that could really shake things up. And then Tom Brady, does he retire? Does he go elsewhere? For example, Vegas, if they trade Derrick Carr and they open up all that cap space, boom, there goes Tom Brady, right to Vegas, which Tom Brady and Devante Adams talk about a one-two combo. Now to end it, what should the Bears do ultimately? I would prefer the Bears to trade down. I would go as far as four. Because I want to walk away in this draft with Will Anderson or Jalen Carter. I want to walk away with one of them. Because I think everyone would say that if the Colts were to trade up, probably one-two is either C.J. Shroud and Bryce Young one-two. Arizona, they'd probably take somebody on defense, either Jalen Carter or Will Anderson. And then the Bears, you'd take one or the other. Like I said before, Will Anderson just seems like a slam dunk. But the more I read and listen about Jalen Carter, he's growing on me. It just seems like he can be something special. And the ability to rush the passer just right in the quarterback's face is so valuable in today's league where if you have an edge rusher and they don't do a good job rushing the passer, the quarterbacks can just run out and sometimes when they get out of the pocket, it's just as dangerous, if not more, than when they were in it. So I think the ability to rush the passer and get in the quarterback's face and not give them really anywhere to go is so invaluable. Jalen Carter could be drafted and walk in and be maybe one of the better defensive tackles in the league and that's just hard to find. So many ways as I'm talking, I'm kind of talking myself into Jalen Carter. And then I guess to wrap it, there's just the talks about Justin Fields and trading Justin Fields. And my thought on that is if I am trading Justin Fields, I have to be, as Ryan Pohl said in his press conference, absolutely blown away by one of these quarterbacks, whether that's Bryce Young or C.J. Shroud. I have to be blown away. I would have a very hard time, and I understand the idea of the rookie contract, it starts over, I get it. But I would have to be blown away. I wouldn't be surprised leading up to the draft if Ryan Pohl calls Justin Fields and says, hey, we're going to do a little smoke screen and say we're interested, but really we're not. Just to see if you can drive up the price of that first pick, do it to Indianapolis, do it to Houston, you could do it to Carolina, you can do it to, if I'm Ryan Pohl's, I want a bidding war, an absolute bidding war to see how much you can extract from a team. Again, as far as I would go is four. After that, if I'm trading past four and I'm going to be basically passing on Jalen Carter and Will Anderson, I want a king's ransom. I want at least two first round picks in return. One this next year, and basically you can look up the tree, Lance tree, when San Francisco went from 12 to three and they got, Miami got three first round picks. Obviously San Francisco's in that draft and they got two future first round picks, which Miami turned around and turned into Bradley Chubb and Tyreek Hill. So I would say Miami has done a good job in terms of, again, kind of going back to treating other teams' picks like a credit card. They used the credit card and swiped and turned it into Bradley Chubb and Tyreek Hill. So that's just my take. I think this could be one of, if not the biggest off season for the Chicago Bears. They could really, they could turn this around real quick if they do it right. So that's it for the test here.
