I love your stat first policy when it comes to pushing to your narrative, but you cant leave out TDs and INTs when evaluating these QBs. If you are truly stat first, then show the whole picture and talk about the whole picture. Not just what proves your point.
Caleb Williams 30TD / 5INT / 16 FUM / 3.6% TWP Jayden Daniels 40TD / 4 INT / 3 FUM / 1.6% TWP Bo Nix 45 TD / 3 INT / 2 FUM / 1.0% TWP Did you not know this beforehand, or did you just want to reinforce that Caleb Williams is not the most NFL ready player in this class? I wasn't trying to prove a point, I give analysis... and if you feel like I'm pushing a point, then you just reinforced the point that I was pushing...
@@kathykorbel1101 Do we just use stats? But you're making it sound like because the stats don't fit the "narrative" with Caleb, then they should be discounted or completely disregarded. Everything needs to be taken into context. Not just something because it fits what you want it to fit.
That’s the only thing that Caleb and mahomes have in common is there losing college ways and same kliffy coach in there ear outside that mahomes and Caleb are not even close!
@@Beardownsports First of, let me say that I really like the show. However, I just want you to give the whole picture and not cherry pick stats that prove your point. That's the whole reason behind knowledge over narrative isn't it? I'm legit not trying to be a jerk here, but you have to be very careful when you talk about stats and don't show the entire picture. TD to INT ratio is an important stat that you seemed to omit. CW TD INT ratio is very impressive. Does that fact disprove your point alone? No it doesn't. So why not talk about it? Also, the info Swifty pointed out the other day showed that you failed to look at 3rd downs, red zone, 4th quarter stats. When one is making a case for or against a QB one would think that those stats would be included as well, would they not? And if not then why not bring it up on the show you both recently had? Like I said, I like the show and I definitely want to see more. I know this is a new channel and nobody is perfect. You make a good point when you say that CW is not the most NFL ready, but that point should hold water when compared to the entire picture. If you leave out important information it could be seen as pushing your own narrative, and quite frankly, for good or bad, that's how I took it. Responsibility of the communication falls on the commutator. Take it for a grain of salt it's just my 2 cents for what it's worth 🐻👇
Hell" Yeah!!! Adam 👍🏾👍🏾 the Door kicked Wide open So any and everything is possible, 👑 Ryan Poles and 👑 lan Cunningham are very smart with the Misdirection Royal Flush game play they're playing, l personally like it, l'm just waiting to see it all unfold.. BN4L' 'LFG' 🐻⬇️✌🏾
in that interview poles said that caleb was mature i was laughing my ass off that he said that with a straight face! heres the kicker if poles really beleives that.... WE ARE FUCKED!
Finally a host that shows statistical facts. I run through the stats every year for past 20 years on paper old school style. And when I bring it up on chat or other bears sites they bash me too. So keep your head up I listened to the whole thing and a couple of stats off but way better than I just live this guy every thing poles does is magic regurgitation of it. I went in to this year hearing Caleb was generational he is mahomes ,luck, etc.. so I was optimistic ok cool but after reviewing the ncaa all time qb stats, looked at mid ,short, long ,middle accuracy comparison of all QBs (I included every one because I didn’t review Purdy at all last time I get got napping on any QBs lol) Caleb isn’t the best at all I 100% with statistics,eye test, baggage, ego it’s Daniel’s and bo and I didn’t think about it those guys at first he’ll even pennix is on the all time stats list more than Caleb and mahomes is on there a lot to, something after that didn’t set well how is he comparable to them they are 6’2 or taller better took work and don’t hold the ball as long as Caleb does? All facts jack anyway I’m definitely scrolling to your videos first I watch all and never subscribe to any of them but wanted to tell you keep up the fact findings it’s way better than getting loud and saying Caleb is the best and following the hype.
Also I trust Poles. But I am still very very sad to see JF1 go. When he was drafted I remember all of Chicago got a renewed hope and that is why JF1 is so beloved in our city of Chicago.
Yeah lots of insults flying around for people like us , but we saw it. It's a huge missed opportunity. I've got a few insults for the people who jumped right on the Mel kiper bandwagon myself. These guys don't know what they're talking about. Adam does. he's not afraid to speak honestly and he doesn't need to make extreme statements to get attention.
You trust Poles? Tell me then why did Poles not look into anything when 1) Fields publicly stated that his own coaches were confusing him (twice) nor 2) when he first started staring at open receivers? Shouldn't having to use the #1 draft pick instead of trading it to replace Fields be of Prime Concern to him. Even end his career if he effs it up? He had Over A Year to respond to both those things & Did Nothing. He showed Zero Care for Fields while it was his responsibility _TO_ care for him. You could have had a franchise QB, MHJR & an élite o-line & now can only get one of those things *because of Poles.* So you mean you trust him to keep this team down? Then I agree.
Have you watched any of Kurt Warner's recent film reviews of the top QB prospects? He makes it VERY clear that his #1 trait he wants to see is the ability to process, quickly and decisively. His commentary is like listening to paint dry, but it's some real quality stuff.
I think a trade up for washington will have to be a 1000% value for the bears. After listening to poles on macfee they gonna have to sale the organizations immediate future to the bears similar to the ricky williams drsft day trade plus some more.
What's up Adam my man 👍🏾👍🏾 🐻⬇️ I really like Jayden Daniels and Possibly Justin Herbert" and a possible trade down at #9 l like Marvin Harrison Jr. & Jackson Powers Johnson" to protect our QB' whomever he maybe BN4L' 'LFG' 🐻⬇️ -AmenRa' ✌🏾
Love your analysis. I think it's Caleb unless Washington gets desperate and goes way overboard on their offerings. That will be difficult for Poles to ignore. If Jayden's pro day goes really well then let's start the trade rumors. Again.😀
Hey Adam I read a story recently saying Trevor lawrence was the last ‘cant miss’ prospect, and asking if Caleb Williams could be the next Trevor lawrence. Got me thinking would this be a good thing/bad thing. if we have better o line, receivers that Trevor lawrence has had and how Trevor lawrence has actually performed statistically, as I think he had a poor statistics year 1 but then had a pro bowl. It occurred to me that this could be an idea for a new video for you if you were looking for ideas. What impacted Trevor Lawrence’s trajectory with supporting cast and how this compares to what we have etc etc statistically speaking.
You're not alone as you think Adam. Seems to me the Bears offensive system will determine who they pick, which is why it could be Daniels. If the system shows Caleb Williams doesn't fit as well as Daniels, its no knock on Williams. Ryan Poles said he was focusing on ending the losing cycle like they did with Andy Reid in KC. The Bears are working through all the scenarios, so enjoy the ride! It's going to be a fun draft day!
Adam - enjoyed the video. I'm a big fan and I tend to agree with most of your opinions. Can you analyze how Caleb, Maye, Jayden and others do at critical times of a game: on 3rd down; in the 4th quarter; with 2 minutes left in a half or game; when down by 8 or less points with less than 5 minutes to play, etc. Those are the money downs...when real QBs show up and ball out. I'm not sold on Caleb one bit. But I'd like to see how he stacks up against the others on measures like this. Thanks in advance.
Good stuff Adam, appreciate you providing some depth to this conversation. Clearly you've got a better pulse on this topic than most of the talking heads and trolls. Draft never turns out the way people predict, which is why i enjoy the different perspectives.
The most telling part of RP's conversation is that after all the compliments about Caleb, he still hasn't made his decision on QB. He's leaving the GM meetings early and showing up to the LSU pro day. And that sounds like a man who's looking to trade down. If I believe Caleb is everything I need I'm not leaving meetings that are as important as the ones happening on the 27th
It seems like they are good with at least 3 or 4 of the QBs, and it’s going to come down to best overall trade haul. It’s like slicing hairs between them. Some may have perceived higher ceilings but seriously no one can predict that. Same thing with floors. Caleb seems like the highest bust potential. But Bo Nix looks like highest current floor and most NFL ready, since he played the most in that type of offense. He has 5 years of playing, which is experience and lots of in game reps. The Bears found out how invaluable that was when they witnessed Bagent play. He did extremely well at 2 and 2, with far less talent than the current top 5. Bo Nix has a lot more talent and tools than Bagent, so it’s clear he can be a starter. Fastest release time at 2.77 seconds. Super fast at processing. Phil Simms has him rated nearly as talented with arm angles, cross body throws, scrambling, but much better in the pocket than Caleb. Nobody keys in on his arm strength, which he never had to demonstrate much in Oregons offense. But it’s there. Simms says his accuracy is almost too good, and he could relax a bit on throw to open up more throws. Simms has Caleb and Jayden in tier 1a, and Bo in tier 1b, but just slightly under Caleb overall in terms of all the tools. Maybe a slightly less better scrambler, but only by a smidge. He keeps himself out of trouble more than Caleb, does not play hero ball, and moves the chains. Says a lot like a Drew Brees, but maybe more upside. Will win a lot of games for you. Maybe a couple super bowls depending who’s surrounding him. His anticipation, and his throws to the correct shoulder, consistently and keeping his receivers out of harms way are uncanny. His dad was a football coach. He just doesn’t flash all the pizazz of a Caleb. If Bears take him, I predict they are a 12 win team this season. Personally I think he’s way better than Cj stroud or any of the QBs who have come out since Andrew luck. Bears perfect fit for him and also Waldron’s offense. He has that QB build. I think poles biggest challenge is how much can he gamble and drop down to take him. He’s gone if he gets to the Broncos, but broncos might want to trade up a few spots if they can find someone willing. I think he can safely trade down once with the commanders, and maybe one more time with Patriots if they want McCarthy. But that would be it. Poles is going to have a real itchy trigger finger. No other team sent a HC out to his pro day except the Bears, so he’s slightly under the radar. It’s hard to fathom that many other teams are missing this guy. Bears know he does not have the faults of Justin, such as slow to get rid of ball, or inability to read defenses. Maybe not the raw athletic ability, but he will be around the league for years to come. I think Poles knows that they are so close to building up a real strong overall team, and really wants to have about 7 to 9 picks out of this draft to take a major leap with waldrons offense. He may really love Caleb, or Jayden, but so will many other teams, and he is going to find those picks so hard to resist. Think 85 bears mind set, but slight modification. Super strong defence, special teams, decent but maybe not super great offense. Look at what they held other teams to points wise. Few more pieces on defence, especially edge rusher, make them even better. If they could have scored even a touchdown, they had Green Bay beat in second game. Bo Nix and offensive line beefed up with guys like Jackson Powers at center, multiple tight ends, Keenan Allen DJ moore, and on paper they are beating Green Bay and Detroit this season.
@specialist-in-tech I agree, Flues showing up alone at his proday was proof that he's got the coaches attention. Usually, teams try to be koy about their sleepers. That was a slick move. The draft is going to bust wide open with trade opportunities if we're patient and stick to our guns. It's also clear that Poles is trusting his OC, their system, and a solid group of play makers instead of trying to make it all happen with just a QB. I am excited to see where it goes from here
@@toneduncan flus brought an entire contingent, except Poles. No other team showed a HC or GM. More and more reviewers are now digging into Nix, and wondering why they hadn't looked closer at him before. Apparently it's they heard bad things or distracted by the Caleb over hype. But then they see his film, and they are like this guy has some great NFL attributes. These are reviews just a few weeks before the draft. A lot could change. But at least the Bears are in the "Pole" position. Lol.
Anyone else stumped by Poles? He keeps cards to his chest all the time but with Caleb he rolls out the red carpet. I think it's a rope a dope for a trade and I'll think that until we select at 1
That's why I'm talking through this It seems like he's either completely in love with him, or he's building that value hard. Either way it's a win/win If he loves him this much then we need to believe he really is special. If he's building value, we're about to get a haul plus a great rookie QB. 🐻⬇️
I still dislike the rookie clock. Mahomes is on his rookie contract and I could be wrong but has now won 2 SBs while NOT on a rookie contract and yes has 3 total. So the rookie clock doesn’t really add up
I love your passion. I agree with you on your points. If Poles, sees Daniels as being Elite too, I really think that Washington will just dam it, we will give you our 2 2's and our first 3 in 2024, plus a 2025 1st and a 2026 2nd. They have put an extreme amount of effort on Caleb the local kid. I could see Magic saying don't let the fish get away. Can you see my trade scenario given all the facts and the situation that everyone feels we will take Caleb?
Yeah... But I still think it's going to be incredibly difficult for the Bears NOT to take Caleb Williams. It's likely he's a Bear. There's just so much behind the scenes, that nobody knows
@@Beardownsports You are absolutely right that we really do not know. I think your points on driving up the bid were right on. I sure hope Poles sees Daniels with the double haul being greater than Caleb. This suspense is driving me nuts. Wouldn't it be so fun if we soon heard that we made that lucrative trade, plotting who we might pick at this and that and figuring what the future high picks might mean to us. Bear Down!
I still agree, if Washington loves Williams and offers something we can't refuse I think Poles has to take it. It is what is best for the team as a whole.
If they give up 2,36,67,100 and a future 1 or 2nd &3rd. Poles would be an idiot not to take that. I think dabears are a playoff team with any of the top 4 qbs in this draft. Plus he's picking up at least 3 other top players in other positions of need! Insane if he doesn't go after a trade any way you look at it
Ugly reality of the NFL today...if you don't have a top 10 QB you will not be winning a Superbowl...that leaves 22 teams completely out of having a chance...there are about 1600+ pro NFL players...and the top 10 QBS are literally the top 10 out of those 1600 players. So teams are going to over draft, over pay, and risk all to get a guy that can be top 10. The Bears hope (pray) Caleb could be a top 10 guy...previous #1 QB picks taken recently...Bryce Young, Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow, Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield...Joe Burrow is the only top 10 QB in my opinion.
Adam, I have to ask you a question do you think there is an outside chance that the Bears trade the first round pick two the LA Chargers for Justin Herbert and we acquire fifth pick plus draft picks what do you think?
Adam Im so glad you think analytically bcuz it helps many understand where you are coming from. Then on the flip side the love affair with an unknown talent like Caleb although I understand why so many are enamored with him. Im not sold on him. Being a fan over 55 years Ive been through the Chicago QB carousel and just want stability at the position. Imho I dont feel like caleb is the QB for Chicago. I don't understand all the knobslobber over him tho. Of course hes doing everything right as he knows how to sell himself as a brand first a player secondly. Keep up.the great work and dont let the haters get you down. 😉 😜 😏
Hi, Adam. Great takes, as always. I'm with you, rooting for a trade with Washington for a haul. I do many mock drafts and you commented today that most mock draft sites do not have the players listed in the correct order. Do you have a resource that is more accurate, or are you pulling your ranking of the players from multiple sources? You might consider a video showing where one of the popular mock draft sites has some players highly overvalued and others just as highly undervalued. If you have a player's list that ranks them reasonably accurately, I would love to see it. It would greatly help me when doing mock drafts. Thanks, and Bear Down!
Poles should give Matt Ryan a 1-year contract so the new QB, whoever he is, can sit and learn most of the year if not all of it, or play a quarter here and there without the pressure of having to win all the time. Ryan's 38 and could teach a ton of stuff to the rookie. Ryan and Poles were roommates at Boston College and Ryan praises Poles to the sky, citing dedication, work ethic, and loyalty as just a few of his attributes.
I would select him as high as #9, after trading down multiple times from #1 overall to out of the top 10. Broncos will definitely select Bo Nix @ #12, unless they trade up for J.J. McCarthy.
This Bears' rebuild under Poles has mostly been successful, but it is not complete. Right now the Bears are are in a historic situation that they are unlikely to see again anytime soon. Trading with Carolina was a big win for the Bears. Now the Bears have what would have been Carolina's #1 pick as well as the #9 overall pick, which is huge, but only two more picks in this year's draft. As important as QBs are in the NFL, Teams still win championships. No matter what, the Bears are likely to have a better year than last year on the field in 2024 and should be in contention to make the playoffs. That will reduce the level of their 2025 draft picks as things now stand. To me, since the entire Team is most important and since drafting a QB remains a crapshoot, the Bears should trade down from #1 to #2 and possibly from #9 to get more draft picks this year and hopefully another 1st round pick in 2025 (meaning the Bears would once again have 2 first round draft picks in 2025). THIS is how you build a Team. Overly focusing on just one position, albeit an important one, the QB, in the draft too often results in "fool's gold". Assuming the value is there, I say: trade down, pick your top prospect at #2 for draft picks; re-evaluate and decide whether to keep or trade #9; get that 2025 1st; and just build a really solid Team which will pay dividends potentially for several years. I am excited about the Bears' opportunity here!
Jayden had two 1st round wrs. You would assume they are elite at SEPARATION…CW’s highlights are so crazy that it overshadows his pocket presence and ability to go through progressions.
@@Beardownsports Not trash, but one would assume that he would have done even better with 1st round talent around him. Jayden wasn’t doing anything before he got with Nabers and BTJ…CW has shined with so many different receivers and no name guys his whole career.
Hey man one of the football people cannot think of his name right now he said that Caleb Williams is nothing special I think the Bears made a mistake by getting rid of Justin fields
I think your missing the trade of #1 for picks plus Herbert plus the Chargers pick up his salary. Also something I hope that Poles has in mind, Watson to Browns, Rodgers to Jets,. Wilson to Broncos all surefire winners and actually proven, all busts. Williams is a surefire winner but not proven.
I wonder if Chicago has an accurate height on Caleb Williams. Is that the reason?he was in shotgun so much at USC.Patrick Mahomes is causing nightmares for 31 teams. Organizations are searching for a quarterback that make plays like him. Over the past 40 years there has been about 5 or less QB's with the generation tag placed on them entering the NFL draft. Dan Marino, John Elway, Andrew Luck that's all I can come up with, so it's very rare.
To be clear... Me being right is that we're taking Caleb Williams. Just because I'm pointing out options doesn't mean I'm saying we will trade the pick
Poles: “ we’re picking Kaleb bc he didn’t pick up his phone once during dinner. That’s our guy!” (lol). By the way, the Commanders are now off Jayden Daniels. Supposedly onto JJ. Liars season in full swing. Personally I’d watch who these guys are talking about the least. So commanders definitely are going after the Bears to get Caleb. Bears : Bo Nix. Jayden too scrawny and couldn’t beef up enough to make it in the pros without impacting his throwing.
When I watch these guys highlights, Daniel’s really stands out to me. He’s a lot bigger and just looks like an NFL QB. Caleb reminds me more of Bryce Young, an NFL wanna be….
The Bears draft is going to be horrible if they don't trade number one. I doubt these guys are capable of developing anyone they are 10-24, which is worse than Trestman er!
I mean this kindly, I *feel* you are overanalyzing the QB situation. I know in a future video, you recognize the Bears are not scheduled with Jayden Daniels and you 90% (or something) believe the Bears are taking Caleb. My thought is, I don't care about TTT if the player is making player/not turning the ball over. Caleb can play in structure, but he's also a playmaker. I don't believe the Bears are selecting Caleb as good PR. I believe the Bears are taking Caleb bc their analysis views him as the top QB prospect, the highest upside too.
I look forward to having the first overall pick in 2025. Be it by drafting Caleb Williams, or Washington giving us their first and they draft Caleb Williams. Let the hate begin, it only fuels my power.😅
I’ve been following ur vids for awhile now and up intil now I’ve agreed with u but I think poles is set and drafting Caleb now. Unless he is doing an insane smoke screen. I think poles thinks the caleb is clearly the best out of all the QBs. He’s not even going to drake Mayes pro day so there is no way we draft him. Jayden Daniel’s is a gamble bc if poles picked the clear number 1 his job would be safe. If he takes the 2-3 overall qb and he is a bust then poles is screwed so there’s no way he even try’s that
Love your stuff Adam! Regardless of what Poles says, I believe they have made their decision. Is he baiting Wash to move up, etc? or is he stuck on Caleb? IDK. None of us do. But it sure feels like it's Caleb. Scouts have been on him non stop, every week for past 2 years. I think a lot of Caleb's Hero Ball was out of necessity. It was USC's best chance to win. Certainly, that will need to be reeled in at the NFL level. I think you're way too high on Nix. Nothing against the kid, but 1/3 of his PA's were screens. The Oregon Offense is not a pro style offense, though it incorporates some. But projecting a player from college to the NFL is difficult enough. Made moreso when they're projecting a 24yo with 6 years experience vs a 20yo with 2 years ala JJ. Statistical analysis from a non pro system and projecting that into the NFL seems like an exercise in futility. It comes down to his physical tools, mental tools, and the system whoever drafts them runs. Despite all the good he has done, Poles. etc future is riding on this #1 pick. They have to nail it. For me, the most disturbing info leaked was Cronin stating that Kevin Warren negotiated the PIT trade for JF1. That just feels like the same ol Bears. You've got a stud GM, let him cook without meddling. Also, Cronin reported that Poles confirmed in her 1 on 1 with him that Ryan Bates was brought in to be the starting Center, Coleman was signed as b/u. Go watch the snaps Bates took vs the Bears. He was 1 on 1 with Billings and dominated him.
I know Caleb is probably the choice but I don’t want him here I want Daniels… Something about a guy who paint his nails to say fuck Utah and then cries to his mommy, a guy who’s a spoiled brat growing up… Sure he sounds really nice and sounds really cool that doesn’t mean anything… And to make this about money? Are you kidding me? If the ownership in front office wanted Justin Fields to be here but the management said I think it’s better that we get someone else because of the contract situation and we think that this next guy could be better… I don’t buy it, it’s not about money that’s just a good excuse well a bad excuse actually… You give Justin another year to prove himself with more than enough talent and better protection and a coordinator who makes sense and this team could’ve been a playoff team Last season but I believe they were a playoff team this season but now they have to start over again and if they get to 500 well that’s I guess a decent season but they could’ve been over 500 if they kept the more competent and more experienced NFL quarterback.it’s just fucking unbelievable just doesn’t make any damn sense
Adam I think you are with the thought that the bears are taking CW. I hear you that you have others that you like more although the bears are probably taking CW. As for me I don’t give a rats ass who they take. Poles knew all along he was going to trade Justin even when he was hired. Poles wants to put his stamp on this team and it shows because there’s only 3 members on the team before he was hired. He’s let go or traded away just about every player that was on the bears when he was hired. Fields was a scapegoat pure and simple. No O-Line, No Offensive coordinator except a freaking rookie and a #1 receiver in his last season. You’re right when you say Poles says the truth and also lies. Poles screwed over Justin and he was running for his life for the better part of his tenure on the bears. I’ve been a bears fan since the 60’s. Watched how they never cared about development of a quarterback or protection for a quarterback. Maybe a few years in the 80’s during the Super Bowl era but not much else unless they ran the ball. So looking at my tenure as a bears fan I feel like I’ve been traded from the bears to the Steelers and their 6 not 1 but 6 Super Bowls and a coach who’s one of the Top 3 in the NFL. Tomlin is a fantastic coach and I have No Doubt that Fields will eventually be the starter. I had season tickets for 25 years and gave them to my brother. Yes I was a Ra Ra die hard Bears Fan with jerseys and memorabilia. Just last week I bought my first Steelers coffee mug. Sometimes when you’re betrayed you get a divorce. The Bears Organization has betrayed time and time again since Papa Bear passed away. Goodbye Bears- 1 Super Bowl Hello Steeler Nation - 6 Super Bowls I’m Done -- Drop 🎤
DO YOU KNOW IS RYAN POLES. GOING TO VISIT WITH ( BO NIXS. THE ONE QUARTERBACK WHICH YOU ARE TUATING TO GO SEE. IS HE WORTH WITH WHAT YOU BROKE DOWN. OR IS RYAN POLES GOING TO KEEP IT CLOSE TO THE VEST. I PERSONALLY REALLY RELY ON YOUR COMPLETE INSIGHT. BECAUSE I PERSONALLY REALLY HAVE BEEN A LOYAL LIFETIME LIFELONG CHICAGO BEARS SUPPORTER/ FAN SINCE 1972 WHEN I WAS ONLY SIX YEARS OLD.
I still think that trading the pick and keeping Fields was the best idea. At this point though, I would be absolutely shocked if they didn’t take Williams at 1.1
This is where im at as well. Would be a lot of scrutiny to have traded JF and then end up passing on CW as well. Our chances at getting the haul really plummeted when we traded JF.
Trading the # 1 to Washington would be the right move. We still have roster holes. We get a QB still that has all the tools plus we get players in return you have got to do it !
Buy low Sell high These are old maxims, proven true. The value of Caleb Williams is very very high now. Perhaps time to sell. Especially in a class full of excellent QB prospects. Why not take an amazing haul and get a very very good QB on a rookie contract? Seems impossible to lose, so long as the QB they take helps them win a SB
@@Beardownsports Why couldn't they plan to take a QB next year, when they've filled the roster with rookies from trading down, and just use Bagent to get through the year?
I think we need receivers badly. Tyler Scott and Velus Jones need to be pushed down the roster as far as possible. Why is Brenden Rice so far down on everyone's draft board? Is Brock Bowers an option at #9? He has a top 30 visit scheduled.
Don't you think Poles would literally be crucified by the press if they traded the first pick. Even if it works out in the end. Surviving the initial storm of controversy would be very difficult.
If you are still unsure watch his final two collegiate games. VS Ducks and the Husky. Both defeats under immense pressure if not getting smothered. Yet he still found seams to get ball to receivers. Great downfield vision, anticipation from knowing where they'll be. That's a pro QB. Ryan will listen but Wash Comms won't give up all their 1sts and 2nds for next 3 years...lol
@@Beardownsports I can understand that…I would just prefer we focus our resources elsewhere to optimize our other picks…not waste time on QBs. Most of the news coming out about the Bears being interested in other QBs is essentially commanders and pats brass trying to stir the pot. Imo.
Caleb Williams excelling in the PAC conference is like the smartest kid in the dumb row what NFL ready defensive players face in games? Daniels, Maye and McCarthy faced much better caliber defenses with similar numbers
You mean to tell me that his coaches and all the people with loyalty to the USC program said they loved him and he should go #1? Hmmm doesn't sound at all like a conflict of interest.... like zero chance that could be a biased opinion....
J Daniels plus all the the picks actually sounds like a smart move. If Poles goes against the media narrative, it would solidify him as a great GM! IMO
@@Beardownsports I don't want Caleb Williams. Just that everyone who talks about it, says it's a done deal. I wish they would trade down and get some more offensive players. We all know that next year is the year for the defensive lineman
@@ericsmith5902The fingernail paint, lipstick, and pink phone at the college basketball game might be the tipping point for me. I already analyzed him from a statistical standpoint... I don't know if I can do the diva drama and Hollywood, especially right after Jaylon Johnson told him to leave Hollywood behind
Daniels is a run first quarterback. His pass run ratio is 2:1. Williams is 5:1. Bears don't need another run first quarterback who will be injured because of his size.
He's not a run first QB. He's coach to run with his legs. He anticipates throws better than anyone but Bo Nix in this class. I'm not worried about Daniels at the next level with the way he anticipated at all
@@kathykorbel1101I can see your argument if you say he can't pass, but his ADJ%, his poor pass rating, his TWP% and his anticipation is among the best in college football. He's not dependent on his legs.
And we were spot on those Look at what Poles said, he said Justin is progressing every single year and it was a tough decision that came down to the salary cap 🐻⬇️
Poles got rid of Justin Fields because he was Trash. 🗑️ He was just trying to be nice to all you Delusional Fields fans that can’t get over it! Caleb will be drafted by the BEARS now move along. 🐻⬇️
Don't tell me you're on the Kayla hype train? Since I've made this video, I'm even more convinced he's the absolute worst thing that could ever happen to the Bears. The Pink makeup and finger nails are the nail in the coffin after Jaylon Johnson told hm to leave Hollywood on Hollywood. Nah man, I'm good.
@@Sulleymon21What are you talking about that they didn't even meet with Daniels? It's already confirmed the Bears will meet with Daniels and McCarthy for Top 30 visits... And where are the Bears right now? At Jayden Daniels Pro Day, watching him
@@Beardownsports waiting for your confirmation that they have a top-30 visit set up. did you not see the Rappaport tweet indicating they were not meeting with Daniels at his pro day? at this point you're just not even concerned with talking facts.
Stop this nonsense. We passed on Mahomes. Chicago, as a city, deserves to lose its franchise if we pass on the next reported sure thing. You take the chance.
The one thing all the greats had is heart for the game. Cutler was good but certainly no heart for the game.I don't know how you can find out till they get on the Fields
I love your stat first policy when it comes to pushing to your narrative, but you cant leave out TDs and INTs when evaluating these QBs. If you are truly stat first, then show the whole picture and talk about the whole picture. Not just what proves your point.
Caleb Williams 30TD / 5INT / 16 FUM / 3.6% TWP
Jayden Daniels 40TD / 4 INT / 3 FUM / 1.6% TWP
Bo Nix 45 TD / 3 INT / 2 FUM / 1.0% TWP
Did you not know this beforehand, or did you just want to reinforce that Caleb Williams is not the most NFL ready player in this class? I wasn't trying to prove a point, I give analysis... and if you feel like I'm pushing a point, then you just reinforced the point that I was pushing...
Pat Mahomes threw 29 interceptions in college and was 0-10 against ranked teams. Just using stats to compare quarterbacks is a fool's errand.
@@kathykorbel1101 Do we just use stats? But you're making it sound like because the stats don't fit the "narrative" with Caleb, then they should be discounted or completely disregarded.
Everything needs to be taken into context. Not just something because it fits what you want it to fit.
That’s the only thing that Caleb and mahomes have in common is there losing college ways and same kliffy coach in there ear outside that mahomes and Caleb are not even close!
@@Beardownsports First of, let me say that I really like the show. However, I just want you to give the whole picture and not cherry pick stats that prove your point. That's the whole reason behind knowledge over narrative isn't it? I'm legit not trying to be a jerk here, but you have to be very careful when you talk about stats and don't show the entire picture. TD to INT ratio is an important stat that you seemed to omit. CW TD INT ratio is very impressive. Does that fact disprove your point alone? No it doesn't. So why not talk about it? Also, the info Swifty pointed out the other day showed that you failed to look at 3rd downs, red zone, 4th quarter stats. When one is making a case for or against a QB one would think that those stats would be included as well, would they not? And if not then why not bring it up on the show you both recently had?
Like I said, I like the show and I definitely want to see more. I know this is a new channel and nobody is perfect. You make a good point when you say that CW is not the most NFL ready, but that point should hold water when compared to the entire picture. If you leave out important information it could be seen as pushing your own narrative, and quite frankly, for good or bad, that's how I took it. Responsibility of the communication falls on the commutator. Take it for a grain of salt it's just my 2 cents for what it's worth 🐻👇

Bear Down!
Finally a host that shows statistical facts. I run through the stats every year for past 20 years on paper old school style. And when I bring it up on chat or other bears sites they bash me too. So keep your head up I listened to the whole thing and a couple of stats off but way better than I just live this guy every thing poles does is magic regurgitation of it. I went in to this year hearing Caleb was generational he is mahomes ,luck, etc.. so I was optimistic ok cool but after reviewing the ncaa all time qb stats, looked at mid ,short, long ,middle accuracy comparison of all QBs (I included every one because I didn’t review Purdy at all last time I get got napping on any QBs lol) Caleb isn’t the best at all I 100% with statistics,eye test, baggage, ego it’s Daniel’s and bo and I didn’t think about it those guys at first he’ll even pennix is on the all time stats list more than Caleb and mahomes is on there a lot to, something after that didn’t set well how is he comparable to them they are 6’2 or taller better took work and don’t hold the ball as long as Caleb does? All facts jack anyway I’m definitely scrolling to your videos first I watch all and never subscribe to any of them but wanted to tell you keep up the fact findings it’s way better than getting loud and saying Caleb is the best and following the hype.
That's exactly why I started the channel.
Stats aren't everything, but need to be considered 100%
Thanks for tuning in
Also I trust Poles. But I am still very very sad to see JF1 go. When he was drafted I remember all of Chicago got a renewed hope and that is why JF1 is so beloved in our city of Chicago.
I’m hurting so bad about it. This was going to be his year I really believe that JF1
Yeah lots of insults flying around for people like us , but we saw it. It's a huge missed opportunity. I've got a few insults for the people who jumped right on the Mel kiper bandwagon myself. These guys don't know what they're talking about. Adam does. he's not afraid to speak honestly and he doesn't need to make extreme statements to get attention.
You trust Poles? Tell me then why did Poles not look into anything when 1) Fields publicly stated that his own coaches were confusing him (twice) nor 2) when he first started staring at open receivers? Shouldn't having to use the #1 draft pick instead of trading it to replace Fields be of Prime Concern to him. Even end his career if he effs it up?
He had Over A Year to respond to both those things & Did Nothing. He showed Zero Care for Fields while it was his responsibility _TO_ care for him. You could have had a franchise QB, MHJR & an élite o-line & now can only get one of those things *because of Poles.* So you mean you trust him to keep this team down? Then I agree.
Have you watched any of Kurt Warner's recent film reviews of the top QB prospects?
He makes it VERY clear that his #1 trait he wants to see is the ability to process, quickly and decisively.
His commentary is like listening to paint dry, but it's some real quality stuff.
Excellent video!
I'm thinking only 51% we take Williams
We shall see
It's likely he'll be a Bear, but still a lot to come
@@Beardownsports it's fun to speculate.

Love your analysis. I think it's Caleb unless Washington gets desperate and goes way overboard on their offerings. That will be difficult for Poles to ignore. If Jayden's pro day goes really well then let's start the trade rumors. Again.😀
Keep on truckin Adam.
Always!
🐻⬇️
Hey Adam I read a story recently saying Trevor lawrence was the last ‘cant miss’ prospect, and asking if Caleb Williams could be the next Trevor lawrence. Got me thinking would this be a good thing/bad thing. if we have better o line, receivers that Trevor lawrence has had and how Trevor lawrence has actually performed statistically, as I think he had a poor statistics year 1 but then had a pro bowl. It occurred to me that this could be an idea for a new video for you if you were looking for ideas. What impacted Trevor Lawrence’s trajectory with supporting cast and how this compares to what we have etc etc statistically speaking.
You're not alone as you think Adam. Seems to me the Bears offensive system will determine who they pick, which is why it could be Daniels. If the system shows Caleb Williams doesn't fit as well as Daniels, its no knock on Williams. Ryan Poles said he was focusing on ending the losing cycle like they did with Andy Reid in KC. The Bears are working through all the scenarios, so enjoy the ride! It's going to be a fun draft day!
Adam - enjoyed the video. I'm a big fan and I tend to agree with most of your opinions. Can you analyze how Caleb, Maye, Jayden and others do at critical times of a game: on 3rd down; in the 4th quarter; with 2 minutes left in a half or game; when down by 8 or less points with less than 5 minutes to play, etc. Those are the money downs...when real QBs show up and ball out. I'm not sold on Caleb one bit. But I'd like to see how he stacks up against the others on measures like this. Thanks in advance.
Good stuff Adam, appreciate you providing some depth to this conversation. Clearly you've got a better pulse on this topic than most of the talking heads and trolls.
Draft never turns out the way people predict, which is why i enjoy the different perspectives.
🐻⬇️
I think we're taking Caleb
But I'm not going to close myself down to other things happening until it becomes official.
Thanks for checking it out
The most telling part of RP's conversation is that after all the compliments about Caleb, he still hasn't made his decision on QB. He's leaving the GM meetings early and showing up to the LSU pro day.
And that sounds like a man who's looking to trade down. If I believe Caleb is everything I need I'm not leaving meetings that are as important as the ones happening on the 27th
💯
Now, like I said, I think he's good with Caleb, but he hasn't shut the door. He's still open for business
It seems like they are good with at least 3 or 4 of the QBs, and it’s going to come down to best overall trade haul. It’s like slicing hairs between them. Some may have perceived higher ceilings but seriously no one can predict that. Same thing with floors. Caleb seems like the highest bust potential. But Bo Nix looks like highest current floor and most NFL ready, since he played the most in that type of offense. He has 5 years of playing, which is experience and lots of in game reps. The Bears found out how invaluable that was when they witnessed Bagent play. He did extremely well at 2 and 2, with far less talent than the current top 5. Bo Nix has a lot more talent and tools than Bagent, so it’s clear he can be a starter. Fastest release time at 2.77 seconds. Super fast at processing. Phil Simms has him rated nearly as talented with arm angles, cross body throws, scrambling, but much better in the pocket than Caleb. Nobody keys in on his arm strength, which he never had to demonstrate much in Oregons offense. But it’s there. Simms says his accuracy is almost too good, and he could relax a bit on throw to open up more throws. Simms has Caleb and Jayden in tier 1a, and Bo in tier 1b, but just slightly under Caleb overall in terms of all the tools. Maybe a slightly less better scrambler, but only by a smidge. He keeps himself out of trouble more than Caleb, does not play hero ball, and moves the chains. Says a lot like a Drew Brees, but maybe more upside. Will win a lot of games for you. Maybe a couple super bowls depending who’s surrounding him. His anticipation, and his throws to the correct shoulder, consistently and keeping his receivers out of harms way are uncanny. His dad was a football coach. He just doesn’t flash all the pizazz of a Caleb. If Bears take him, I predict they are a 12 win team this season. Personally I think he’s way better than Cj stroud or any of the QBs who have come out since Andrew luck. Bears perfect fit for him and also Waldron’s offense. He has that QB build. I think poles biggest challenge is how much can he gamble and drop down to take him. He’s gone if he gets to the Broncos, but broncos might want to trade up a few spots if they can find someone willing. I think he can safely trade down once with the commanders, and maybe one more time with Patriots if they want McCarthy. But that would be it. Poles is going to have a real itchy trigger finger. No other team sent a HC out to his pro day except the Bears, so he’s slightly under the radar. It’s hard to fathom that many other teams are missing this guy. Bears know he does not have the faults of Justin, such as slow to get rid of ball, or inability to read defenses. Maybe not the raw athletic ability, but he will be around the league for years to come. I think Poles knows that they are so close to building up a real strong overall team, and really wants to have about 7 to 9 picks out of this draft to take a major leap with waldrons offense. He may really love Caleb, or Jayden, but so will many other teams, and he is going to find those picks so hard to resist. Think 85 bears mind set, but slight modification. Super strong defence, special teams, decent but maybe not super great offense. Look at what they held other teams to points wise. Few more pieces on defence, especially edge rusher, make them even better. If they could have scored even a touchdown, they had Green Bay beat in second game. Bo Nix and offensive line beefed up with guys like Jackson Powers at center, multiple tight ends, Keenan Allen DJ moore, and on paper they are beating Green Bay and Detroit this season.
@specialist-in-tech I agree, Flues showing up alone at his proday was proof that he's got the coaches attention. Usually, teams try to be koy about their sleepers. That was a slick move. The draft is going to bust wide open with trade opportunities if we're patient and stick to our guns. It's also clear that Poles is trusting his OC, their system, and a solid group of play makers instead of trying to make it all happen with just a QB. I am excited to see where it goes from here
@@toneduncan flus brought an entire contingent, except Poles. No other team showed a HC or GM. More and more reviewers are now digging into Nix, and wondering why they hadn't looked closer at him before. Apparently it's they heard bad things or distracted by the Caleb over hype. But then they see his film, and they are like this guy has some great NFL attributes. These are reviews just a few weeks before the draft. A lot could change. But at least the Bears are in the "Pole" position. Lol.
@specialist-in-tech I should have clarified, alone meaning "without Poles." You're correct. Various staff accompanied him
Anyone else stumped by Poles? He keeps cards to his chest all the time but with Caleb he rolls out the red carpet. I think it's a rope a dope for a trade and I'll think that until we select at 1
That's why I'm talking through this
It seems like he's either completely in love with him, or he's building that value hard.
Either way it's a win/win
If he loves him this much then we need to believe he really is special.
If he's building value, we're about to get a haul plus a great rookie QB.
🐻⬇️
Great stuff 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻🐻⬇️
Bear Down!!
trading back for a HAUL you can gamble on a qb on a rookie contract at 2nd pick and still fill holes with extra draft capital.
I still dislike the rookie clock. Mahomes is on his rookie contract and I could be wrong but has now won 2 SBs while NOT on a rookie contract and yes has 3 total. So the rookie clock doesn’t really add up
Mahomes ascended more quickly than Fields.
Mahomes is hard to compare anyone to. The Bears just had a unique opportunity
I love your passion. I agree with you on your points. If Poles, sees Daniels as being Elite too, I really think that Washington will just dam it, we will give you our 2 2's and our first 3 in 2024, plus a 2025 1st and a 2026 2nd. They have put an extreme amount of effort on Caleb the local kid. I could see Magic saying don't let the fish get away. Can you see my trade scenario given all the facts and the situation that everyone feels we will take Caleb?
Yeah... But I still think it's going to be incredibly difficult for the Bears NOT to take Caleb Williams. It's likely he's a Bear. There's just so much behind the scenes, that nobody knows
@@Beardownsports You are absolutely right that we really do not know. I think your points on driving up the bid were right on. I sure hope Poles sees Daniels with the double haul being greater than Caleb. This suspense is driving me nuts. Wouldn't it be so fun if we soon heard that we made that lucrative trade, plotting who we might pick at this and that and figuring what the future high picks might mean to us. Bear Down!
Matt Eberflus made a slip up in a interview & said they were drafting Caleb🤣🤣🤣
I still agree, if Washington loves Williams and offers something we can't refuse I think Poles has to take it. It is what is best for the team as a whole.
Still holding out hope
If they give up 2,36,67,100 and a future 1 or 2nd &3rd. Poles would be an idiot not to take that. I think dabears are a playoff team with any of the top 4 qbs in this draft. Plus he's picking up at least 3 other top players in other positions of need! Insane if he doesn't go after a trade any way you look at it
Dude, love your out-of-box thoughts and analysis! Haters love to hate! No one knows what poles is up to! Bear down!
Bear Down!
Ugly reality of the NFL today...if you don't have a top 10 QB you will not be winning a Superbowl...that leaves 22 teams completely out of having a chance...there are about 1600+ pro NFL players...and the top 10 QBS are literally the top 10 out of those 1600 players. So teams are going to over draft, over pay, and risk all to get a guy that can be top 10. The Bears hope (pray) Caleb could be a top 10 guy...previous #1 QB picks taken recently...Bryce Young, Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow, Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield...Joe Burrow is the only top 10 QB in my opinion.
Adam, I have to ask you a question do you think there is an outside chance that the Bears trade the first round pick two the LA Chargers for Justin Herbert and we acquire fifth pick plus draft picks what do you think?
No
Salary Cap is the reason we traded Fields.
Trading for an expensive QB doesn't seem like the play at all. They reset the QB clock
Adam Im so glad you think analytically bcuz it helps many understand where you are coming from. Then on the flip side the love affair with an unknown talent like Caleb although I understand why so many are enamored with him. Im not sold on him. Being a fan over 55 years Ive been through the Chicago QB carousel and just want stability at the position. Imho I dont feel like caleb is the QB for Chicago. I don't understand all the knobslobber over him tho.
Of course hes doing everything right as he knows how to sell himself as a brand first a player secondly.
Keep up.the great work and dont let the haters get you down. 😉 😜 😏
Hi, Adam. Great takes, as always. I'm with you, rooting for a trade with Washington for a haul. I do many mock drafts and you commented today that most mock draft sites do not have the players listed in the correct order. Do you have a resource that is more accurate, or are you pulling your ranking of the players from multiple sources? You might consider a video showing where one of the popular mock draft sites has some players highly overvalued and others just as highly undervalued. If you have a player's list that ranks them reasonably accurately, I would love to see it. It would greatly help me when doing mock drafts. Thanks, and Bear Down!
Poles should give Matt Ryan a 1-year contract so the new QB, whoever he is, can sit and learn most of the year if not all of it, or play a quarter here and there without the pressure of having to win all the time. Ryan's 38 and could teach a ton of stuff to the rookie. Ryan and Poles were roommates at Boston College and Ryan praises Poles to the sky, citing dedication, work ethic, and loyalty as just a few of his attributes.
I wish tomorrow was April 25th already 😫
Great thoughts.
Bears are selecting Bo Nix.
Reported 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😜😂😂
.000001% chance
🐻⬇️
I would select him as high as #9, after trading down multiple times from #1 overall to out of the top 10. Broncos will definitely select Bo Nix @ #12, unless they trade up for J.J. McCarthy.
Poles is doing his due diligence with all of the QBs. We are going to have to wait to see what happens…🐻🔽

Trade down to JD and take Brian Thomas Jr. That's a win it would be better for the team to NOT take CW

and none of that is exposed until they get to the NFL
@@gatorbite9816 Very true. That is why hitting on a QB is so hard.
@silver33 Yeah, for sure.That to me is the main reason why I would still trade down from 1 if the package is right
not sure what videos you are watching but go check out DaWindyCity Productions 20 Minutes of Caleb Williams Playing in the Pocket, In-Structure.
@@alterego7287 In college
I wonder if a QB is available at 9, how much of a bidding war there would be... and, specifically if Minnesota would give up the 23rd along with #11.
I can't see Minn giving up that much, but that's the beauty of draft night. They could absolutely be fighting each other to our benefit
Makes Damn good since to me to still trade down from one
Just watched Poles on McAffee and it’s all but clear that he’s sold on Williams!
It appears that way, doesn't it
I'd take a 3 to 1 bet - 75% for taking CDub
This Bears' rebuild under Poles has mostly been successful, but it is not complete. Right now the Bears are are in a historic situation that they are unlikely to see again anytime soon. Trading with Carolina was a big win for the Bears. Now the Bears have what would have been Carolina's #1 pick as well as the #9 overall pick, which is huge, but only two more picks in this year's draft. As important as QBs are in the NFL, Teams still win championships. No matter what, the Bears are likely to have a better year than last year on the field in 2024 and should be in contention to make the playoffs. That will reduce the level of their 2025 draft picks as things now stand. To me, since the entire Team is most important and since drafting a QB remains a crapshoot, the Bears should trade down from #1 to #2 and possibly from #9 to get more draft picks this year and hopefully another 1st round pick in 2025 (meaning the Bears would once again have 2 first round draft picks in 2025). THIS is how you build a Team. Overly focusing on just one position, albeit an important one, the QB, in the draft too often results in "fool's gold". Assuming the value is there, I say: trade down, pick your top prospect at #2 for draft picks; re-evaluate and decide whether to keep or trade #9; get that 2025 1st; and just build a really solid Team which will pay dividends potentially for several years. I am excited about the Bears' opportunity here!
Jayden had two 1st round wrs. You would assume they are elite at SEPARATION…CW’s highlights are so crazy that it overshadows his pocket presence and ability to go through progressions.
You can get one of those wr at 9
And Caleb had trash for WR's, right?
@@Beardownsports Not trash, but one would assume that he would have done even better with 1st round talent around him. Jayden wasn’t doing anything before he got with Nabers and BTJ…CW has shined with so many different receivers and no name guys his whole career.
The draft can’t come fast enough
Stop bro, Bears are building it up so other teams want him Williams didn’t look good to me.
They are taking Caleb! Unless....
Hey man one of the football people cannot think of his name right now he said that Caleb Williams is nothing special I think the Bears made a mistake by getting rid of Justin fields
Nah, they made it clear it was a financial decision so they were moving on either way.
Now the interesting part begins
I think your missing the trade of #1 for picks plus Herbert plus the Chargers pick up his salary.
Also something I hope that Poles has in mind, Watson to Browns, Rodgers to Jets,. Wilson to Broncos all surefire winners and actually proven, all busts. Williams is a surefire winner but not proven.
I wonder if Chicago has an accurate height on Caleb Williams. Is that the reason?he was in shotgun so much at USC.Patrick Mahomes is causing nightmares for 31 teams. Organizations are searching for a quarterback that make plays like him. Over the past 40 years there has been about 5 or less QB's with the generation tag placed on them entering the NFL draft. Dan Marino, John Elway, Andrew Luck that's all I can come up with, so it's very rare.
They are picking Caleb....I wanted them to keep JF. This is the facts. No chance they trade from 1!
Justin Fields is gone
That has no bearing on who we take now
Bears Over and Under is 8 1/2 Vegas doesn't miss these numbers by much. Not a lot of confidence in the Rookie
Rough division still
I so hope your right
To be clear... Me being right is that we're taking Caleb Williams.
Just because I'm pointing out options doesn't mean I'm saying we will trade the pick
Poles: “ we’re picking Kaleb bc he didn’t pick up his phone once during dinner. That’s our guy!” (lol). By the way, the Commanders are now off Jayden Daniels. Supposedly onto JJ. Liars season in full swing. Personally I’d watch who these guys are talking about the least. So commanders definitely are going after the Bears to get Caleb. Bears : Bo Nix. Jayden too scrawny and couldn’t beef up enough to make it in the pros without impacting his throwing.
Great video
Appreciate it 🐻⬇️
Adam love your content, I am fine with Caleb or Jayden
Me too
🐻⬇️
When I watch these guys highlights, Daniel’s really stands out to me. He’s a lot bigger and just looks like an NFL QB. Caleb reminds me more of Bryce Young, an NFL wanna be….
Caleb is awesome. In college. Will it translate? I have concerns. But the ship has sailed we're likely to find out the hard way
The Bears draft is going to be horrible if they don't trade number one.
I doubt these guys are capable of developing anyone they are 10-24, which is worse than Trestman er!
Love the channel dude
🐻⬇️
TRADE THE PICK
I mean this kindly, I *feel* you are overanalyzing the QB situation. I know in a future video, you recognize the Bears are not scheduled with Jayden Daniels and you 90% (or something) believe the Bears are taking Caleb.
My thought is, I don't care about TTT if the player is making player/not turning the ball over. Caleb can play in structure, but he's also a playmaker. I don't believe the Bears are selecting Caleb as good PR. I believe the Bears are taking Caleb bc their analysis views him as the top QB prospect, the highest upside too.
I’d pay money for us to trade with Washington and take JD!!
I look forward to having the first overall pick in 2025. Be it by drafting Caleb Williams, or Washington giving us their first and they draft Caleb Williams. Let the hate begin, it only fuels my power.😅
I’ve been following ur vids for awhile now and up intil now I’ve agreed with u but I think poles is set and drafting Caleb now. Unless he is doing an insane smoke screen. I think poles thinks the caleb is clearly the best out of all the QBs. He’s not even going to drake Mayes pro day so there is no way we draft him. Jayden Daniel’s is a gamble bc if poles picked the clear number 1 his job would be safe. If he takes the 2-3 overall qb and he is a bust then poles is screwed so there’s no way he even try’s that
I literally said it's 80-90% we're taking Caleb Williams.
Thanks, Bear Down
Love your stuff Adam! Regardless of what Poles says, I believe they have made their decision. Is he baiting Wash to move up, etc? or is he stuck on Caleb? IDK. None of us do. But it sure feels like it's Caleb. Scouts have been on him non stop, every week for past 2 years. I think a lot of Caleb's Hero Ball was out of necessity. It was USC's best chance to win. Certainly, that will need to be reeled in at the NFL level. I think you're way too high on Nix. Nothing against the kid, but 1/3 of his PA's were screens. The Oregon Offense is not a pro style offense, though it incorporates some. But projecting a player from college to the NFL is difficult enough. Made moreso when they're projecting a 24yo with 6 years experience vs a 20yo with 2 years ala JJ. Statistical analysis from a non pro system and projecting that into the NFL seems like an exercise in futility. It comes down to his physical tools, mental tools, and the system whoever drafts them runs. Despite all the good he has done, Poles. etc future is riding on this #1 pick. They have to nail it. For me, the most disturbing info leaked was Cronin stating that Kevin Warren negotiated the PIT trade for JF1. That just feels like the same ol Bears. You've got a stud GM, let him cook without meddling. Also, Cronin reported that Poles confirmed in her 1 on 1 with him that Ryan Bates was brought in to be the starting Center, Coleman was signed as b/u. Go watch the snaps Bates took vs the Bears. He was 1 on 1 with Billings and dominated him.
No way we go into next season and not make the playoffs with the moves we made
As much as it would be great for sport content makers to trade to pick, the Bears will draft Caleb. It's the safest pick in the draft.
Agreed
Poles is pumping up Caleb to entice the Commanders to come up to 1
I know Caleb is probably the choice but I don’t want him here I want Daniels… Something about a guy who paint his nails to say fuck Utah and then cries to his mommy, a guy who’s a spoiled brat growing up… Sure he sounds really nice and sounds really cool that doesn’t mean anything… And to make this about money? Are you kidding me? If the ownership in front office wanted Justin Fields to be here but the management said I think it’s better that we get someone else because of the contract situation and we think that this next guy could be better… I don’t buy it, it’s not about money that’s just a good excuse well a bad excuse actually… You give Justin another year to prove himself with more than enough talent and better protection and a coordinator who makes sense and this team could’ve been a playoff team Last season but I believe they were a playoff team this season but now they have to start over again and if they get to 500 well that’s I guess a decent season but they could’ve been over 500 if they kept the more competent and more experienced NFL quarterback.it’s just fucking unbelievable just doesn’t make any damn sense

I think you are with the thought that the bears are taking CW.
I hear you that you have others that you like more although the bears are probably taking CW.
As for me I don’t give a rats ass who they take.
Poles knew all along he was going to trade Justin even when he was hired.
Poles wants to put his stamp on this team and it shows because there’s only 3 members on the team before he was hired. He’s let go or traded away just about every player that was on the bears when he was hired.
Fields was a scapegoat pure and simple.
No O-Line, No Offensive coordinator except a freaking rookie and a #1 receiver in his last season. You’re right when you say Poles says the truth and also lies.
Poles screwed over Justin and he was running for his life for the better part of his tenure on the bears.
I’ve been a bears fan since the 60’s.
Watched how they never cared about development of a quarterback or protection for a quarterback. Maybe a few years in the 80’s during the Super Bowl era but not much else unless they ran the ball.
So looking at my tenure as a bears fan I feel like I’ve been traded from the bears to the Steelers and their 6 not 1 but 6 Super Bowls and a coach who’s one of the Top 3 in the NFL. Tomlin is a fantastic coach and I have No Doubt that Fields will eventually be the starter.
I had season tickets for 25 years and gave them to my brother. Yes I was a Ra Ra die hard
Bears Fan with jerseys and memorabilia.
Just last week I bought my first Steelers coffee mug. Sometimes when you’re betrayed you get a divorce. The Bears Organization has betrayed time and time again since Papa Bear passed away.
Goodbye Bears- 1 Super Bowl
Hello Steeler Nation - 6 Super Bowls

DO YOU KNOW IS RYAN POLES. GOING TO VISIT WITH ( BO NIXS. THE ONE QUARTERBACK WHICH YOU ARE TUATING TO GO SEE. IS HE WORTH WITH WHAT YOU BROKE DOWN. OR IS RYAN POLES GOING TO KEEP IT CLOSE TO THE VEST. I PERSONALLY REALLY RELY ON YOUR COMPLETE INSIGHT. BECAUSE I PERSONALLY REALLY HAVE BEEN A LOYAL LIFETIME LIFELONG CHICAGO BEARS SUPPORTER/ FAN SINCE 1972 WHEN I WAS ONLY SIX YEARS OLD.
I've already said I like Bo Nix and there is no chance we take Bo Nix at 1 or 2.
Jayden Daniels at 2 is the likely scenario imo
I’m a bear fan first I wanted Justin and not Caleb but I’m hoping he is a generational as everyone has said but I’m not convinced
I still think that trading the pick and keeping Fields was the best idea. At this point though, I would be absolutely shocked if they didn’t take Williams at 1.1
This is where im at as well. Would be a lot of scrutiny to have traded JF and then end up passing on CW as well. Our chances at getting the haul really plummeted when we traded JF.
Trading the # 1 to Washington would be the right move. We still have roster holes. We get a QB still that has all the tools plus we get players in return you have got to do it !
Daniels at 2
Buy low
Sell high
These are old maxims, proven true. The value of Caleb Williams is very very high now. Perhaps time to sell. Especially in a class full of excellent QB prospects. Why not take an amazing haul and get a very very good QB on a rookie contract? Seems impossible to lose, so long as the QB they take helps them win a SB
What if they bluffing snd Bagent is the 1 and the build around him lol
It would be still good to draft another rookie QB
Even if he isn't the guy, it would mean they have two #1's ne t year, and get their QB then.
Career suicide for Ryan Poles.
Bagent is a solid backup and I hope he keeps working to improve every day
@@Beardownsports Why couldn't they plan to take a QB next year, when they've filled the roster with rookies from trading down, and just use Bagent to get through the year?
I think we need receivers badly. Tyler Scott and Velus Jones need to be pushed down the roster as far as possible. Why is Brenden Rice so far down on everyone's draft board? Is Brock Bowers an option at #9? He has a top 30 visit scheduled.
We don't have an X
Bears trade #1 pick to Chargers for #5 and Justin Herbert?
We can't pay his current salary. 40 million +....pipe dream....love the concept though.
Really how fucking deft of a move would it be to trade Williams to Washington knowing JJ is the true #1 QB in this class?
Don't you think Poles would literally be crucified by the press if they traded the first pick. Even if it works out in the end. Surviving the initial storm of controversy would be very difficult.
Yes!!! He's gotta have brass balls to pull this off. 🍿
@@Beardownsports he doesnt
He does. He will trade down if he gets a good enough offer
I don't believe what Kay Adams says because she said that Eddie Jackson signed with the F'n Packers. Lol
If you are still unsure watch his final two collegiate games. VS Ducks and the Husky. Both defeats under immense pressure if not getting smothered. Yet he still found seams to get ball to receivers. Great downfield vision, anticipation from knowing where they'll be. That's a pro QB. Ryan will listen but Wash Comms won't give up all their 1sts and 2nds for next 3 years...lol
I agree but watch the entire TV broadcast so you can experience the awesome leadership he shows and listen to how the media wants to tear him down.
How about Brock bowers at 9
Or 13?
Trade down get a mid round pick
Don’t know if poles is looking at Brian Thomas even , rome o I could go to the giants , we want him to get Brian Thomas he may be thinking diffrent
@@zachaddington5264 who even knows?
He is excited to go to LSU's pro day
Since he is there might as well hope he is impressed
Why are we even talking about the other QBs?!! CW has 2 1/2 yrs of good tape…Jayden and Drake had one good year…it’s not close.
He has 2 1/2 years of so so tape.
Because the draft is a month away.
Why wouldn't we talk about the Bears options?
@@Beardownsports I can understand that…I would just prefer we focus our resources elsewhere to optimize our other picks…not waste time on QBs. Most of the news coming out about the Bears being interested in other QBs is essentially commanders and pats brass trying to stir the pot. Imo.
@@jmoski57 You have very high stds lol if you are a bears fan you should lower them a little bit.
Caleb Williams excelling in the PAC conference is like the smartest kid in the dumb row what NFL ready defensive players face in games? Daniels, Maye and McCarthy faced much better caliber defenses with similar numbers
I'm with you Adam 💯
🐻⬇️
Love your analysis-please keep it up.
Much appreciated!
🐻⬇️
You mean to tell me that his coaches and all the people with loyalty to the USC program said they loved him and he should go #1? Hmmm doesn't sound at all like a conflict of interest.... like zero chance that could be a biased opinion....
We should appreciate the position we are in. Poles holds the cards, at worst we have to suffer(ha) through Caleb Williams.
Right?! At worst we end up with a "generational QB"
I appreciate all the work you do and the in-depth analysis. It has been so long since Bears fans have had a QB we don't know how to act if we get one.
JJ had a game where he through 8 passes…they never trusted him so why should an NFL team?
J Daniels plus all the the picks actually sounds like a smart move. If Poles goes against the media narrative, it would solidify him as a great GM! IMO
The bears getting caleb williams is pretty much a done deal.
Signed sealed and Delivered.
April 25th has come and gone.
Let's get ready for rookie minicamp
Seems that way
@@Beardownsports I don't want Caleb Williams. Just that everyone who talks about it, says it's a done deal. I wish they would trade down and get some more offensive players. We all know that next year is the year for the defensive lineman
@@ericsmith5902The fingernail paint, lipstick, and pink phone at the college basketball game might be the tipping point for me. I already analyzed him from a statistical standpoint... I don't know if I can do the diva drama and Hollywood, especially right after Jaylon Johnson told him to leave Hollywood behind
Daniels is a run first quarterback. His pass run ratio is 2:1. Williams is 5:1. Bears don't need another run first quarterback who will be injured because of his size.
He's not a run first QB. He's coach to run with his legs. He anticipates throws better than anyone but Bo Nix in this class.
I'm not worried about Daniels at the next level with the way he anticipated at all
He runs too much and will get hurt. Look what happened in the Alabama game. He is too quick to run. He did the same at ASU.
@@kathykorbel1101I can see your argument if you say he can't pass, but his ADJ%, his poor pass rating, his TWP% and his anticipation is among the best in college football.
He's not dependent on his legs.
Like ur vidoes, but u havent been very good at interpreting Poles comments. Member those videos where u broke down his JF comments…..
And we were spot on those
Look at what Poles said, he said Justin is progressing every single year and it was a tough decision that came down to the salary cap
🐻⬇️
@@Beardownsports u said we were keeping him, u were adamant, just look at what he’s saying c’mon guys its obvious…remember????
All I here is Poles and Eberflus are trying to save their jobs and not what’s best for the team
Poles got rid of Justin Fields because he was Trash. 🗑️ He was just trying to be nice to all you Delusional Fields fans that can’t get over it! Caleb will be drafted by the BEARS now move along. 🐻⬇️
Nobody in here hangs on to Justin like you are. We simply want the best QB to come to Chicago
Adam, you need to stop this nonsense.
Don't tell me you're on the Kayla hype train?
Since I've made this video, I'm even more convinced he's the absolute worst thing that could ever happen to the Bears.
The Pink makeup and finger nails are the nail in the coffin after Jaylon Johnson told hm to leave Hollywood on Hollywood.
Nah man, I'm good.
@@Beardownsports well they didn't even meet with Daniels, so looks like it's going to be a long decade for you
@@Sulleymon21What are you talking about that they didn't even meet with Daniels? It's already confirmed the Bears will meet with Daniels and McCarthy for Top 30 visits... And where are the Bears right now? At Jayden Daniels Pro Day, watching him
@@Beardownsports where is it confirmed that they are hosting him for a 30 visit?
@@Beardownsports waiting for your confirmation that they have a top-30 visit set up. did you not see the Rappaport tweet indicating they were not meeting with Daniels at his pro day? at this point you're just not even concerned with talking facts.
Stop this nonsense. We passed on Mahomes. Chicago, as a city, deserves to lose its franchise if we pass on the next reported sure thing. You take the chance.
The one thing all the greats had is heart for the game. Cutler was good but certainly no heart for the game.I don't know how you can find out till they get on the Fields
You know who the Mahomes of this draft class is?
Nobody did in 2017, but you've figured out that Nix and Daniels, JJ and MPJ aren't the next Mahomes?
LOL, No is the answer you were looking for
80% Williams. 10% Daniels. 10% Maye. Don't know why you don't like Maye.
Maye to me is like the point guard who can't make a layup. I just can't convince myself that his accuracy issues are worth betting on
