Everyone is so hot to get Justin Fields out of Chicago. Considering what other teams and many teams including Chicago had to use backup quarterbacks. Minnesota Vikings had to use at least four since Kirk Cousins went down. Quarterback play this season has been terrible especially among the teams who drafted quarterbacks in 2023. I am of a mind that if you draft a quarterback you should sit him to let him know the speed of the NFL. If the Bears do draft a qb with the first pick it would be a bad idea if they think any quarterback they draft will be ready to play on day one which is why the play at that position was so bad unless you're Lamar Jackson. 

The Bears have two picks in the first round and most mock drafts I've seen says the Bears will draft a qb with the first pick they traded away last year to Carolina who drafted a qb and now it's coming back to the Bears. If they do draft a qb they should keep Fields to prepare the kid for the league. 

I remember when the Bears Drafted Mitch Trubisky in 2017 they had the plan to sit him to let him learn the position. Only they signed Mike Glennon who was complete trash so Trubisky had to learn sooner than planned and quarterback is one of the hardest positions to learn and the easiest to destroy a career if you don't have the right coaches. 2017 was a great quarterback class which included Patrick Mahomes. Everytime I see him play it makes me mad because the Bears could have had him. Someone told me that if they did draft Mahomes they would have ruined him. We've already seen David Montgomery walk to a division rival and is doing well and Roshaun Smith was Traded to Baltimore where they're looking like a Super Bowl team. Can it be said that Chicago is a place where football careers come to die with all of the hall of famers we've had? So what is the point of drafting another quarterback when to me it is clear that the coaches we have now have no idea how to coach up a talent like Fields. So drafting a quarterback no.1 and letting fields walk is not a good idea. I say trade out of the first round altogether because the Bears don't draft again until number 9 or 10. I say trade the pick and get a package of players and picks and find your studs in the later rounds where you can find the diamond in the rough. Stop relying on the draft and losing so we can get a high draft pick who isn't going to accomplish much but find his way out of Chicago. And then we're back where we started.
