       One thing for sure, with the #1 overall pick, and the cap space
       we have to spend, this should be an entertaining offseason!

       Bears almost have to trade down.   Quite a gap between drafting
       #1 and their next choices which are late 2nd and early 3rd.
       Watching the Packers/Lions game last night I was amazed at all
       the talent on both those teams compared to the Bears.  Bears
       roster is devoid of their own draft picks.

       If you want Anderson the only trade down the Bears can do is
       with Houston.
       Anything from Indy on down you'll be taking Carter or the other
       DEs.

       Yes, its looking like trade downs are not good for the Bears.

       Liklihood is you would lose one or both of the defensive studs

       The first thing the Bears have to do is make a commitment one
       way or another regarding Fields. Is he their man. Poles can look
       like a genius or complete moron. Not much room for in between.
       If we want Anderson, almost as if we have stay pat and take him
       number one. Fields still has a lot of work to do. Maybe they
       trade him for a high number one and use our #1 for the best QB
       in the draft. One things for certain, we better walk away with a
       great prospect, or two...

       I would be stunned if the Bears trade Fields.   I don't know
       that any team would give up a #1 based on his productivity so
       far (he's toward the bottom of almost all non-running QB stats).
       I think they give him one more year with some improvements on
       the O-line.

       I'm certainly not pushing Cunningham out the door because I
       really want him work with Poles for at least this upcoming
       offseason for the Bears, especially when evaluating OL options.
       But if and when he finds his <a

       I don't recall seeing the 3rd round comp pick mentioned in the
       recent article but I do recall it being available to the Bears.
       That could mean another starter potentially.  I figure anyone
       drafted rounds 1 to 5 has a good chance of starting next season
       or at least being a major contributor.

       Forgot to mention, Cunningham would have to be employed by the
       Bears for 2 full seasons before his promotion in order for the
       Bears to acquire the 3rd round comp picks.
