If they’re smart, they’d draft a quarterback. Fields is awful as a passer, worse than Lamar Jackson.

Fields is a name guys throw around as someone Ballard should've drafted. I'm glad he didn't and I'm especially glad he didn't give up a bunch to do it. Trading for Fields now would be spectacularly annoying (of course I don't expect it).
As I've said, I'm late to the party on a lot of college guys, but now that the season is over I'm starting to look at them. So far, almost unanimously, Bryce Young is the #1 prospect. I know guys want Stroud, Levis, Richardson, whoever... and I know the knock on Bryce Young is his size...
But everyone else knows that, too. And they all still have Bryce Young #1. What I'm going back and watching is impressive, but I'm still trying to form my own opinion. But there must be a reason he's everyone's #1. The only knock I ever read on the kid is his size and there are exceptions to every rule.
And I wouldn't be shocked if the Bears went QB if they're getting an upgrade over Fields. League is too skewed towards QB.
