Bears take on their condition of Russell WilsonSeriously acceptable destinations. They plan to give priority to running the Seahawks quarterback, points out Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune.
Wilson’s agent included the Bears, Cowboys, Raiders and Saints as the teams for which he would agree to waive his non-exchange clause. The Seahawks passenger has made it clear that he is not satisfied with the current state of affairs in Seattle. For the first time, imagining another team’s nine-year veteran quarterback doesn’t seem foolish.
Right now, the Seahawks don’t want to change Wilson, says Seattle Times ’Bob Condotta. It would label Seattle with a record $ 39 million in dead money to do this trade, assuming a deal was started before June 1st. surprising. Of course, it would take a monster offer to escape Wilson from the team that drafted him.
Chicago still has it Nick Foles under contract, and the QB fan may still appear as an alternative option for a Bears team that has had a quarterback need for much of the last 30 years. The bears participated in the Carson Wentz i Matthew Stafford draw, being more closely tied to the first. But no offer came up and Wentz is now a foal. Chicago has not been closely connected Deshaun Watson, although it would seem that the team would love to participate in these draws.
Wilson would have a much greater commercial value than Stafford or Wentz, and with the Bears not having a viable QB1 to include in a trade and maintaining the No. 20 overall selection, it would be difficult to make an offer that would entertain the Seahawks. Other Bears options include signing a stopgap-type QB to fill out the free agent Mitchell TrubiskyBiggs adds that it is the place or writes one in the first round. Still, the team may have to switch to get one of the top five QBs on this year’s draft roster.
