Evidence Growing The Justin Fields Trade Is Tilting In Bears’ Favor

A lot of people were upset when the Chicago Bears traded Justin Fields. Some of it was because they wanted to give him another year after a solid finish to 2023. Others were upset because all the Bears got in return was a conditional 6th round pick. It could improve to a 4th rounder if Fields ends up playing 51% of the offensive snaps this coming season. That felt like a foolhardy decision by GM Ryan Poles, considering Fields was battling seven-time Pro Bowler Russell Wilson for the job.

Thus far, things have unfolded as expected.
