If I were the Bears and making cut decisions I stick with the theme that this is still a building year. Youth over Vets.
If Fields were to get hurt, I would rather see what Bagent could bring, instead of Walker. We know Walker's ceiling. I am not interested in watching a Bear's team with Walker at QB.
Same goes for DE's and DT's, keep the young guys, cut the backup vets.
The only move I even am remotely ok with going with veterans is the Oline. Gotta protect Fields well enough to see him progress in his career. Hard to progress if running for his life every game.
We are not winning the Super Bowl this year. Continue with the plan Poles, keep going with younger players. Things are looking better. Next year we will start contending. Watching the turn around while building for the future is fun, watching us be mediocre with vets is not.
