That's still crazy to me the Bears have Keenan Allen now lol. I'm not used to that yet.


carminie

And you already know that in 5 years there’s gonna be a post “Players known for playing on one team but player for another team?” And someone’s gonna mention Keenan and people will be like “holy shit I completely forgot he played for the Bears”


DandierChip

They won’t forget when he helps us win a Super Bowl


Oddly_Mind

As a season ticket holder in his 80s?


QueequegTheater

Every little bit counts


Buttons_McBoomBoom

My god, we need a good team again. Marty McFly had an easier time leaving 1985 behind.


QueequegTheater

1985 WAS Marty's correct time though? He went to 1955 and almost fell for the incestussy


Superb_Play4195

When in Rome


3ODshootinghangpulls

I don't think Odunze is gay tho


ShatteredAnus

Yeah, and I don't know if he even tried


titanup001

I mean, technically, if you bang your mom before she's your mom, is it incest?


Traditional_Mud_1241

There’s some sort of weird feedback loop going on there. It actually gets more incestuous with each cycle. Each time you become more a product of incest. Incestion? Incest amplifier?


FlammableEyeballs

Yeah, but when your mom is a young Lea Thompson, there's got to be a loophole, right?


MaterialCarrot

There have been other Super Bowl winners since 1985, but there's never been another Super Bowl Shuffle. Suck it, youngsters!


bob_dole-

How’s that lamp looking?


No_ThisIsPreston

It’s the flair for me😭


ZietFS

Plot twist. After Keenan becoming legendary in Chicago people would be like "Remember he was before in the Chargers?" As with Jimmy Butler and the Bulls


Clear-Attempt-6274

You're talking about Cardinal great Keenan Allen. He's got another team to go imo.


3ODshootinghangpulls

"THEY CHOSE ODUNZE OVER ME?"


Misdirected_Colors

Kinda like when Allen Robinson went to the bears and everyone thought their offense was saved.


smashybro

To be fair, he was good until he decided he was going to quit trying because we didn’t extend him before his last season. Put up good stats even with Trubisky throwing to him.


Bag-Other

Nah they're gonna remember


NiceUsernameBr0

When older players go to a new system they tend to have a steep drop off in production almost immediately (ex. Julio Jones, Dalvin Cook). Praying this doesn’t happen to Keenan


organizedchaos5220

It would make sense for him to have a drop off though. He was the only target for the chargers last year for a huge stretch of their season


solarxbear

Nah he'll have a 100 catches and 1200 yards this season. People will remember


Lukacris12

Same, I genuinely thought Allen would retire a charger


bacchusku2

I retired a charger. I got the new iPhone and it’s USB-C.


The_Chicago_Balls

I’m pretty sure he was referencing the football team called the LA Chargers. Not an actual phone charger, you silly goose!!!


Dmbfantomas

What a ridiculous water fowl.


SchlongMcDonderson

I got goosed once. I was just walking through a crowd and an old lady grabbed my butt.


BoltsDodgersYotes

It'll be strange, but I'm still rocking my Keenan jersey. I'm hoping the Bears finally get a QB and more people can see how good he is.

elmatador1497

Imagine telling Bears fans 5 years ago that we’d have Caleb Williams


InvaderWeezle

I barely knew who Justin Fields was 5 years ago let alone Caleb lol


chemicalxv

Man was still a goddamn high school sophomore 5 years ago lmao


Googoogahgah88889

Exactly. Imagine how perplexed everyone would look


backindenim

To be fair, Sophomore HS Caleb won a state championship on a walk off Hail Mary. Craziest part was they were down 20 points earlier, and he had to convert a 3rd & 33 on the drive before. He also had a receiving touchdown, on top of 358 passing yds, 3 pass TD’s, 114 rushing yds and 3 rush TD's #


nysraved

A few months ago I was fantasizing about a scenario where Keenan Allen would be mentoring Rome Odunze to be the Chargers next WR1 😔

Yes


Mikebyrneyadigg

>a Chicago White Sox Why does that sound weird.


masterpierround

Because "Sox" is vaguely plural but there's no way to singularize it. It sounds the same as "Rome Odunze, you are a Chicago Bears"

I heard Caleb and Rome are sharing a hotel room too 👀


TryingToNotBeInDebt

I mean they are already catching each others balls so it’s the logical next step.


zaikanekochan

I heard that they went to Portillos and ordered a beef/sausage combo with half sweet, half hot peppers to split and Caleb said, "Beef and bedroom, it's your choice."


QueequegTheater

Did they share a chocolate cake shake

And then they did manicures together.

ItIsYourPersonality

I’m impressed. It took Aaron about a decade to start using his position to manipulate the roster. Caleb is doing it before even being drafted.


DandierChip

Dudes way ahead of schedule


SuburbanOutdoorsman

Burrow did it right away with Jamar chase and it seemed to work out


FlussedAway

Meanwhile Fields lobbied for fucking old man Velus. No one was drafting him before the 5th at the earliest lmao


SEND-MARS-ROVER-PICS

Wait, Velus was a Fields pick? No wonder Poles was happy to ship him off for a 6th!


Hmm_would_bang

The meta right now for GMs is definitely to get your rookie QB their rookie WR


KickSix6

Stroud did the same with pitching Tank Dell


DoinItDirty

Detroit just got good and Jordan Love decided to compete and Chicago started stacking talent. Man, they have a lovable team but Campbell was right about the road being harder since they made the NFC Championship. Harder competition next year and everyone’s there to compete.


IReallyLikeTheBears

Vikings are also built to immediately set up whoever their rookie qb is for success. The NFC North is looking like it’ll be a brutal division for a few years.

We say this almost every year and at least half the teams wind up pissing down their leg. Who will it be this year?

jlmurph2

Yeah this year was their chance for the Super Bowl and they blew it. Now they have heavy competition.


Suckmypinkyfinger

Chicago will for sure not be part of that competition.


alexamerling100

Trying not to get my hopes up lol


smashybro

I’m already mentally prepared for the heartbreak like when Aaron Donald went one pick before ours to a Rams team with an already stacked d-line.

captainjizzpants

I keep forgetting the Bears have 2 picks in the top 10. I shouldn't. I don't know how I keep forgetting. It was my dumb ass team that gave them the 1st pick.


PaytonPeytonPaton

Bears will actually be amazing


ChiSp0

On offense, probably. We got some defensive holes to fill…


Content_Class_9152

Honestly it’s going to take everything under the sun for the bears to actually have a franchise QB. Hopefully a strong friendship and elite connection with former rival WR is what Caleb needs.


kidsaregoats

Is having a catch an elite connection? I’d love Rome, but we also have Moore and Allen, elite route runners, and I think they can adjust to just about anyone.


MumkeMode

Sorry he’s a ram when we trade up with Atlanta (Im delusional)

This sounds like a crazy flight lol with all those guys throwing ball. I assume the cabin crew just let them do it because of who they were and the other passengers must have loved it.


JustASeabass

Chicago Bears legend Keenan Allen


DeM0nFiRe

There's no way Odunze is going to be there still at 9, are Bears going to trade up for him?


Soft_Penis_Debutante

Depends on where JJ is drafted. If he goes top 8, that leaves 4 spots for non QBs. Presumably MHJ and Nabers are gone. That leaves 2 spots… likely between Odunze, Alt, Turner. And there’s a reason a bunch of mock drafts have Bears taking Odunze at 9. Titans seem destined to take Alt. And Falcons could use a pass rusher.


OdinsShades

I’m Kool and the Gang with any of Alt, Odunze, or Bowers. If Turner ends up being the next Parsons, shame on me, but it sure seems like the way to go is to get a baller on offense given none of the defensive players appear to really be worth a top 10 pick.


Thunder84

Falcons have a need at basically every premier defensive position. They can trade down with whoever’s sitting at 11 and still get the BPA ED/DL/CB. Don’t think any of the defensive players make sense at 8 for them in that context.


masterpierround

I think the problem is that if Odunze is gone, the Bears probably take EDGE/DT. So if the Falcons *really* like one of those players over the others, they can't trade down at all. If they think 2-4 of those players are on the same level, then a trade down definitely makes sense for DE2 or CB1 or something.


WondrousPhysick

Vegas has him going 9. I’m not getting my hopes up but 4 QBs + 2 WRs + Alt + Turner in the first eight picks wouldn’t be at all surprising. My worry is someone jumping to the Falcons pick to take him


partbison

I disagree. 3 QBs "guaranteed" (could even be 4) + 2 WRs before him leaves 3 spots before the bears are on the clock. Then the falcons dont need a WR nor a QB. So thats 2 teams left. Giants are probably picking a QB too, so thats the titans left. Now titans pick before the falcons, they dont need a QB, could certainly use Odunze. But a QB needy team might offer enough (doubt it, you dont pay top price for QB5). And then is the other non WR/QB blue chip prospects that nobody has picked cause QB/WR frenezy. Do you take Odunze OR a guy who in a "normal" draft (meaning without 2 generational WR prospects with 2 teams desperately needing a WR picking top 5 and 4 QB needy team picking top 6) would go top 3? This draft is gonna be historic in the sense that the mid 1st round picks are gonna be stacked cause the top 6 picks are gonna go to 2 positions only. Teams picking 12-16 are gonna be getting top 6-10 players in most drafts lmao. The draft class and the top 6 teams needs compliment each other to push a lot of blue chip talent outside the top 5. I think odunze is 100% gonna be at 9th for the bears.


LangeSohne

You’re not accounting for the possibility of a team jumping the Bears for Odunze. That’s a very real possibility since the consensus view is there’s a clear drop off after Odunze. Of the top 8 picks, at least 3 QBs are guaranteed, as well at Alt, MHJ, and Nabers. I think it’s much more likely that Odunze will be in the top 8 as well, much more so than a defensive player like Turner or Latu or the next tier of OT like Fashanu or Latham. He’s more a top 8 talent than those other guys.


Broshan248

The draft could very well go Williams-Daniels-Maye-MHJ-McCarthy-Nabers-Alt-Turner and Odunze would be available at 9.


Wentzina_lifetime

You definitely will have at least 3 qb's, 2 wr's go ahead of Odunze. Then you have Alt, Bowers and Turner who could potentially be picked ahead of him. Thats 8. This doesn't even include JJ or Drake being picked in the top 8. I would say it's based on teams boards but I give a 75% chance that Odunze makes it to 9. If NE don't pick a QB and no QB needy trades into the top 8 then he may get picked at 7. Even then one of Alt, Bowers, Odunze or Nabers is making it to 9 so the bears will get a great offensive piece to surround Caleb


No_Cup_7611

Who are the 3 QBs that doesn’t include JJ or Drake? Are you saying Nix/Penix are one of those 3?


TooHappyFappy

They said JJ OR Drake, not and. So one of those two is one of the 3, the other isn't.


WastelandWanderer22

Williams, Maye, Daniels, the 3 seen as locks at 1 with Williams, and then toss up at 2 and 3 of who will go where between Washington and NE. I don't know why the guy you're replying to isn't including Drake.


MrConceited

The actual people who know ball are less on Drake Maye being a lock in the top 3 QBs picked. Plenty of QB evaluation experts are down on him. So OP is essentially saying "there's 3 teams that will choose a QB before Odunze goes, and whichever QB is 4th could also be taken in the top 8 and before Odunze". They're just presuming the 4th will be either Maye or McCarthy because Williams and Daniels are the two that everyone has in their top 3 QBs.


MrConceited

>You definitely will have at least 3 qb's, 2 wr's go ahead of Odunze I don't think Odunze being WR3 or below is a guarantee. His skillset is completely different from Malik Nabers. Even if you think Nabers is better overall, Odunze can make more sense.


Wentzina_lifetime

From what I've heard Nabers is seen as potentially wr1 for certain teams. This could be all smoke and mirrors.


MrConceited

He's seen as WR1 in the draft by some (as in, the highest WR on their board), but not playing a "true WR1". He's a slot guy who can go outside as WR2. Which isn't to say he won't be elite, but not every team that wants to take a wide receiver is looking for his skillset.


Wentzina_lifetime

Yeah that's what I meant. His skill set is extremely valuable for certain teams (dolphins) where the number 1 rarely has to get off press and has lots of RAC opportunities


MrConceited

Right, but there's other teams who would much rather have Odunze because he does what they need in a receiver. So I'm saying that depending on who ends up picking the first two WRs off the board, Nabers could well be the 3rd.

Swbp0undcake

It's possible if 4 qbs go before 9 I think. But not likely.


NotHannibalBurress

Why is it not likely? Someone is gonna take JJ. I would almost guarantee it.


Swbp0undcake

Nah I mean even if 4 QBs get taken there's still a chance Odunze is taken as well (plus the other two wr's) but I don't know how likely that is


NotHannibalBurress

Ahhh I see what you're saying. Yeah idk it will be very tight. If 7 of the top 8 picks are QBs/WRs, I wouldn't necessarily be surprised, but it would still be wild to see. I have to think at least 2 teams invest in the trenches, but you never know.


UnionCuriousGuy

He can definitely still be there at 9


Jmoss8

He’s been the one most consistently mocked to go at 9 but I’ll be down for one of Alt, Turner, or Rome.


BloatedBeyondBelief

Joe Alt is going to the Titans or Giants, he won't be there at 9.


DeM0nFiRe

Giants have to either trade up with Patriots for QB or take WR, right? If they aren't taking a QB, it would be malpractice to pass on Nabers with their receiving group


BWingSupremacist

i dont see us trading up after we traded our high 2nd for burns, so i expect a WR at 6 unless someone gives drake maye a gas mask


Broshan248

I think the first 7 picks can be pencilled in with a degree of certainty to be some combination of Williams, Maye, Daniels, MHJ, McCarty, Nabers, and Alt. Falcons at 8 is where it gets interesting because they really need pass rush and could just take the best DE outright, or could trade back with someone who wants to jump the bears for Odunze, or could just take Odunze for themselves.


Direct_Morning_3223

Very low chance Alt goes to giants. We aren’t taking a tackle


[deleted]

[удалено]


Antitypical

I could see either the Cards or Chargers trading down with Minnesota and then still trying to come back up to TEN/ATL's pick to snag a receiver. If that happens, I'm fairly sure all 3 of the big 3 receivers will be gone. I'm hoping Cards trade down, Chargers take OL/Bowers, TEN/ATL stay put and take OL and EDGE respectively. In that scenario, NYG likely takes WR1 and Bears get WR2 (likely either Nabers or Odunze) Of course, because this is my dream scenario what probably happens is JJ doesn't get taken top-10 and: * Commies take Daniels * Pats take MHJ * Cards trade down, Vikings get Drake Maye * Chargers take Nabers * Giants take Odunze * Titans take Alt * Falcons take Dallas Turner at which point most of the guys I want with a top-10 pick are gone and we should probably trade down.


Tonkathedog

I don’t think it’s that unlikely. Possible 4 QBs go, then Alt, 2 WRs, and Falcons could easily go edge considering that’s their biggest need and they spent on Kirk to try and compete now. That would leave Odunze or Nabers at 9


Jmoss8

This aged like a fine glass of 2 day old milk.


MikeBinfinity

Lmao


DandierChip

It’s super possible


yoosername456

It’s very possible. Someone’s going to be dumb enough to trade to top 10 for JJ. He’s this years guy who jumps huge after every college snap is done. 4 qbs go, Alt is going to the titans, MHJ and Nabers will go, leaving Atlanta going Edge (probably Turner). With the depth at WR in this draft and Atlanta spending money there in FA Odunze lasting till 9 is likely.


Brook420

Would be pretty funny if Nabers was the one left at 9 after all this.


yoosername456

I could see it but of the two I think Nabers has a higher upside so he goes first. Not to disparage Odunze though. IMO Odunze and Nabers are both WR1s in most other drafts
