I have been thinking, and maybe the Bears go QB at 1.1 and 1.9 this year.

Even if it's McCarthy, Nix, or Penix, why not? People thought Washington was stupid when they drafted RG3 and Cousins in the same draft.

The Bears have already added to their offense significantly, and as a franchise they have never had a guy at QB. Hell, they probably have the worst history at QB ever, especially considering how long they have existed, and the fact that they are the only franchise to never even have a single 4,000 yard passer.

So, why not draft Caleb Williams, and McCarthy, Nix, or Penix in the same draft?

It might seem stupid, crazy, or a waste, but it increases their chances of getting a franchise QB, and if whoever they take at 9 becomes the franchise QB for a decade plus, no one will care that Caleb Williams was a bust.

You’re not wrong (see RG3&Cousins), but especially in this day with public scrutiny because of social media it would never happen. Even if they took Rattler in the third or fourth, Poles is probably hearing from ownership
