Too much to pay for one player. Good for Oakland though.

I’d say two ones is the right price for a guy this great. Good chance you’ll whiff on one of them.
But I think I get your point - Mack is great but the Bears have more holes. They should have kept the picks.

It would have made sense if they were contenders this year and the only thing holding them back was an average pass rush.
However they are not that team.

It's not just the picks, they now have to hand him a 22mil/yr contract on top of that. That really is a steep price, but I understand their situation and your point about whiffing on picks. The truth of the matter is, the NFCN is loaded with good QBs (Rodgers, Cousins, Stafford) and pass rushing is going to be essential to competing against those division rivals. This helps out Chicago a ton in that area.

The guy is in his prime years. I like the move for them. Go out and get it. Bears fans have to be ready to do some winning.
Pressure is on to nail the 2nd/3rd round picks the next 2 seasons.
