00:00 You can either trade Justin Fields in draft, Caleb Williams if you prefer someone else,
00:10 that's fine, Caleb is -1200 to go in that spot, or you can trade out and lock into Justin
00:18 Fields.
00:19 What are your early expectations here Joe?
00:21 I think they trade out.
00:23 And again, I think Justin Fields has what it takes to progress in this league much the
00:27 way Jordan Love did with Green Bay when you put playmakers around him.
00:31 DJ Moore had a fantastic season, but again, that's the only offensive weapon that Justin
00:37 Fields has.
00:38 They do have Cole Komet, he's a good tight end, not an elite tight end.
00:42 I think they could put a Marvin Harrison around him and allow this offense to cook with the
00:48 right offensive coordinator.
00:50 By getting rid of Justin Fields and then implementing Caleb Williams, you have a similar situation.
00:57 If you're not going to put playmakers around Caleb Williams, how do you expect this quarterback
01:02 to develop?
01:03 Jalen Hurts didn't develop until you put AJ Brown and Devontae Smith in that offense,
01:09 and then Goddard as well.
01:11 So again, I think it's a poor decision, I think they're poorly run, the Chicago Bears.
01:16 If I was running the organization, I'd trade out, get value for the pick, and then put
01:21 offensive playmakers around Justin Fields.
01:24 Donnie, all last year, all they did was draft defensive players.
01:28 They did not draft an offensive weapon around Justin Fields.
01:32 How do you expect them to develop?
01:34 Here's the tough part about it.
01:35 I think the Bears are in a good situation here.
01:37 I think they have to draft Caleb Williams, and here's the reason why.
01:41 Let's just say you go, "Okay, we're going to keep Justin Fields here, surrounded with
01:45 playmakers."
01:46 Let's just say Caleb Williams goes to the commanders, I don't know.
01:49 What are the chances within five years Caleb Williams is probably going to be playing for
01:52 the Super Bowl, if we think he's as good as he is?
01:54 I do think there's a very good chance of that.
01:57 But if you trade away, let's just say, Justin Fields, I don't have that same feeling like,
02:01 "Okay, in five years, Justin Fields is going to be in the Super Bowl if he gets with a
02:04 good organization."
02:05 It's not a slight to Justin Fields.
02:06 It's hard to get.
02:07 Josh Allen's never got to the Super Bowl before.
02:09 Lamar Jackson has never been to a Super Bowl.
02:11 It's not a slight to say those guys can't win the biggest game, but for myself, I will
02:14 never outlive it if I'm a GM or a president of an organization, if I traded Caleb Williams
02:19 away and he turns out to be a seven-time All-Pro.
02:22 I wouldn't be able to live with it.
02:23 But you know what I can live with?
02:24 Trade him Justin Fields away and he has success.
02:26 Like, "Hey, good for him.
02:27 We thought he was a good quarterback."
02:28 I need that upside.
02:29 And Caleb Williams is that athletic marksman in the pocket.
02:32 I need that.
