That would be interesting.

Could draft CHRIS Jones and free up a lot of money for Brandon Sherff and Darius Sllay.

I had one of my supervisors that works for me come in the office this morning asking me how I felt about Chicago trading Mack to the Deadskins for the #2 pick.  I almost sent him for a drug test.  He said that it's all over the DC rumor boards.

I told him I haven't heard anything about it and he was nuts.  Certainly nothing out of Chicago news about it.  Has anyone heard any such nonsense?

Drug test him, and have him pick up donuts on the way back to the office from the lab.

I saw that rumor came from Dan Sileo a small time radio talk show host who can’t keep a job.

Likely a stunt to get himself attention.

He also started the same rumor about the Bears trading up to #1.

He’s a doofus.

I expected this:

The Bears are certainly going to do their due diligence this offseason to address the quarterback position. And Fromm is definitely on their radar.

Bears look like they need to have a bigger power back back on the roster at least for short yardage.

AJ Dillon may be available 6th round.  250LBS with some mojo

Fromm’s write up in that piece sounds almost exactly like Rex Grossman’s did back in the day...

If we get Fromm, it would a nice reunion with both Wims and Ridley...

Fromm is a 5th or 6th round player who will go the first day because of his position.   I'd be disappointed if the bears took him in the second.

I can see Antonio Gibson being the kind of player this staff would love to have...

And who is that for those of us who don’t follow much college football.

https://bearswire.usatoday.com/2020/02/26/chicago-bears-have-met-with-purdue-tight-end-brycen-hopkins-at-2020-nfl-scouting-combine/

TE Brycen Hopkins says he’s met with the #Bears here at the Scouting Combine. Said in total he’s met with 29 other teams. #ScoutingCombine

Probably the only other team will meet with him before the combine is done. Looks like he is skilled at doing interviews.
