Bears Trade #1 Pick to Panthers

[Arz101]

The 3rd choice GM and 32nd best owner will be played by guys smarter than them. For the fear of embarrassment again, there will be no trades..I predict Cardinals stay put and select Will Anderson.

 

[az jam]

I still feel Texans take Anderson. Hope I’m wrong

If they do, the Cards will get a boatload of picks for a QB.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Did the former team of Cam Newton just trade up to #1 for the new version of Cam Newton? Could Stroud and Young still be on the board at #2?

Man...... Indy need to call us ASAP IMO.

 

[Zalixar]

Bears taking Carter at 9.

Have to find a way to trade back one slot. Just say no to drafting Anderson at 3.

Weird, since you downvoted that exact scenario (along with a brigade of others).

I guess people don't want Anderson and extra picks, just Anderson only. Surprising to me to say the least that's for sure.

Everyone wants Anderson and extra picks.

Is it feasible? Maybe.

I don't like the QBs on the board much. I wonder if Ballard is dumb enough to not only draft Levis/Richardson, but to also trade up for the privilege to do so.

The Cardinals can only control what the Cardinals do, I think a trade going from #3 to #4 is unlikely. Other possible trade partners may arise but sounds like the consensus here is good with taking Anderson at #3, unless of course some sweet deal falls in our lap, that's all man

Cardinals can control the flow of information. If Colts like someone specific and think we are content with drafting or trading down, then they might pounce, especially if it's not very expensive. But anything extra is gravy.

Monti just needs to find a way. Obviously it takes two to tango, but if they don't think we are trading or fine with either then we don't have a chance at all. This is poker and we'll see how he plays it.

Here's an ESPN write up about the winners and losers...covers a lot. It's behind the paywall, so I'm just showing screenshots of Cards portion. Delete if not allowed.

Barnwell: Winners, losers and dominoes from the huge Carolina-Chicago trade

The Panthers now own the No. 1 overall pick in April's draft, while the Bears got a bevy of picks -- and a great wide receiver.

Legitimately makes no sense.

So they can fail on drafting Caleb/Maye, aka, overachieving & missing out on both of them next year?

It's almost like you are so fixated on the Cards drafting Anderson that no other possibly is available.

Honestly it's such a perfect marriage between need and BPA that the only way I consider on missing out on Anderson is for a huge package of picks.

Give me your 1st and 2nd this year plus a 1st next and I'll consider it. I'd probably want a 3rd this year as well.

The only reason I'd consider it is because next year's draft class is probably going to be markedly better. You have Drake Maye, Caleb Williams, John Alt, Harrison Jr, Ebuka, Bowers, and thats just on offense. Every one of those players is better than the best at their position in this year's draft. Bowers is maybe the highest graded TE prospect ever and he is going to be a junior.

Before Jalen and his fiasco, he was just as worthy of the 3rd round pick.

This team has WAY more needs than an elite pass rusher, so trading down should also be considered.

 

[reebokalone2001]

QBs going 1-2 is perfect for us.

Take Anderson. Build the defense around a premiere young pass rusher and build the O-line in round 2 and 3.

Yes, the Texans might even trade with Colts after they sign Jimmy G. Then we are sure QB goes 1-2.

Exactly. Dvontel also sees no possibility that the Texans don't draft a QB.

This team has ZERO PASS RUSHERS. It’s THE most important position on Defense that you can totally build around. And we have WAY more needs than an ELITE one?

I swear, I don’t understand some of you guys so much of the time.

 

[SissyBoyFloyd]

I am totally dumbfounded that the Colts didn't secure a trade with the Bears. Seemed like a must do to me and all I read about their mindset. They must be in luv with one of the lesser 2 qbs is all I can think of, or they have some knowledge of the Texans being in negotiation for someone like Garoppolo. Oh yes, I just thought of it. The Texans are going to offer Brady a lifetime contract.

Don't ever trust the Texans to do anything. I think it is 50/50 at best that they don't take Anderson in front of us. Remember when everyone was positive they were going to take the Heisman trophy winner, Reggie Bush, and took the DE instead.

Can't wait to find out what the Colts were thinking not dealing with the Bears.

 

[Red Bird]

Trading back with Indy and still getting Anderson is the dream scenario at this point.

Naw man. An elite pass rusher would fix so much of the defenses issues.

You build your team around QB, LT, Edge, CB, WR, C.

The Cardinals do have some of those pieces already. Get an edge and a good center and things start looking up.

Ballard is a fairly conservative GM. It might cost him his job soon. He's a pretty darn good GM, but he has been loathe to take a major swing at QB.

 

[GatorAZ]

I’m taking the Raiders 2nd this year and 1st next year to go from 3 to 7.

Why do people say this like we’re not allowed to draft players after the first round & EDGE isn’t the most non-QB premium position in the league?

Attention! We’re not only drafting Will Anderson for the 2023 season. We’re dragging him for every season after that as well.

 

[DVontel]

lol why would a divisional rival help a divisional rival possibly acquire a franchise QB?

Uh, remember we are the Cardinals.

 

[GatorAZ]

Who the hell are Bryce Young or CJ Shroud throwing to in Carolina?

 

[unseenaz]

why would Indy trade up 1 spot for a QB when they know we aren't taking a QB?

 

[DVontel]

To prevent other teams like Vegas, Atlanta, or Tennessee leapfrogging them for the QB they possibly like.
