Chicago Bears: Predicting every important quarterback decision
By Ryan Heckman
This offseason, we will see the most quarterback movement in recent memory. Where do the Chicago Bears come into play?
Two years ago, general manager Ryan Pace made one of the biggest draft mistakes in Chicago Bears history — and that’s saying something. The Bears have had some awful picks in their long history, but Mitchell Trubisky was an all-time blunder.
Many of you Bears fans reading have already screamed at me through your screen, and that’s O.K. But, the reality is, Trubisky won’t lead this team to a Super Bowl, no matter how stacked the roster is around him.
With that in mind, let’s get ready for one of the craziest NFL offseasons we have ever seen. This year, quarterbacks are about to move around more than we’ve seen in quite some time. There are upwards of a dozen notable quarterbacks who could be changing locations over the next few weeks.
That’s unheard of. Buckle up.
Pace assuredly has his work cut out for him this year. The Bears are a team which should have Super Bowl aspirations, even though they severely underachieved last year. The pieces are there. Chicago can be ready — if they had the right quarterback.
All of the quarterbacks getting ready to move around will definitely affect the Bears in one way or another. Just one slight change in the dominoes, and Chicago’s next quarterback could be a completely different guy.
So, who goes where? Which quarterbacks get traded? Where do the free agents land? In the following paragraphs, I give it my best attempt to predict which names fall where. Let’s get to it.
