Bears Trade Justin Fields To The Steelers

That's it?

That's wild that's all they could get for him. Teams must really be rating McCarthy high as hell cause if I'm a team with a bad QB I'd be all over Fields for that low of a pick.

The problem is Fields is a low level QB
He's a 1 Read Andy and take fukking forever to get the ball out
He has great running ability so it masks how poor of a QB he actually is but even then he gets beat up a lot with the hits he takes

I assume Russ will have some pull in how the playbook comes together but Arthur Smith has always been a middle of the field pass game guy. That's not Russ' strength at all. Fields isn't good at that either but I wouldn't be stunned if he ends up becoming the starter before the end of the season.

It was a game of chicken, why would I give up any sort of substantial pick when I know :

- youre drafting a QB at 1
- you want to avoid the awkward situation of both being in the building at the same time
- Fields realistically has 1 year left on his deal because no one is picking up that 5th year option based on his current resume (The Darnold Panthers trade killed this scenario moving forward)

Chicago had no leverage and everyone knew it, better to rip the bandaid off and move on rather than create unnecessary drama dragging it out.

Went from Kenny Pickett, Mitch Tribiski, and Mason Rudolph to Russell and Fields

WATTBA fellow Steelers Stans

That’s one hell of a flip.

 

[Dipsey Doo]

Steelers are going to be fukkery central with the convergence of delusional Russ and Fields stans descending upon the franchise

 

[Womb Raider]

Wowzers.


Fields is ass but he gets to learn behind Russ. Bears retooled their offense and they’re drafting a new QB. Rare win/win for both teams.

Horrible trade I would have went for the haul
and raped Washington for Caleb.

 

[DaPresident]

This has been a WILD offseason

 

[Dolo]

For a 6th lmfao

 

[MVike28]

Russ: Steelers nation and I OOP!

 

[Chip Skylark]

why couldn’t the bears just build this offense around fields to begin with

But has given the keys to Caleb

These weapons are crazy for a rookie.

 

[OSUBaneBrowns]

Had to be to the fukking Steelers .

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

fukk THAT I CALLED THIS shyt.

 

[General Mills]

We got Russ for the vet minimum and got Fields for a 6th round pick

Steelers out here playing 3d chess
