Brock Bowers seemed excited about his interview with the Cincinnati Bengals. Can’t blame him wanting to work with Joe Burrow and the WR corps.
#Bengals
Texas TE Ja’Tavion Sanders said he had a good meeting with the Bears. He said he thinks he’d be Caleb Williams No. 1 target if the
#Bears
draft them both.
Byron Murphy lit up when talking about his interview with Mike Tomlin. Murphy wants to be paired with a top pass rusher. T.J. Watt would be that dude. However, Murphy prefers the 4-3 scheme.
#Steelers
I called and confirmed with
@wfaa
that the police report stated there was 10.8 grams of marijuana found in the Lamborghini that
#Chiefs
WR Rashee Rice was driving.
That WOULD NOT be a felony as was originally reported by several sources.
Drake Maye has thrown a couple nice deep balls, but I’ve seen a few like this. His wide receivers are slowing down to catch what would be under throws at the next level.
D’Anthony Jones will be a name to watch this spring for the
#Bears
. His 2022 season for Houston was great. The 8 sacks were nice, but he was credited with 5 forced fumbles last year 👀.
@BarroomNetwork
Breer said the *Giants* are one of the teams that have inquired with teams in the top three. He did not mention the Bears specifically. The Commanders and Patriots are are teams in the top 3 as well. So saying the Bears is completely wishful speculation.
LSU QB Jayden Daniels on meeting with the

.
I'll just say this, he appeared more enthusiastic talking about meeting with a couple of other teams.
The
#Packers
are working out Alex McGough. He seemed comfortable in moving around the pocket and was mobile enough to get out of a bad situation. Over 400 yds rushing in 2023 in the USFL.
Washington Commanders GM Adam Peters said he has not had conversations with new OC Kliff Kingsbury about top QB prospect Caleb Williams specifically. For what that’s worth

Omar Khan hinted new OC Arthur Smith would be in on the
#Steelers
decision to bring in an outside QB this offseason. Here’s his response when I asked him if Smith wanted Justin Fields.

Most journalists are sending pictures to NFL fans of steak dinners in Indianapolis. (Don’t worry, I had that too.) Here’s a picture of another treat from
@parlordoughnuts
#NFLCombine
The
#Bears
made the right decision cutting PJ Walker. His “experience” wasn't going to help Justin Fields see the field better. Tyson Bagent is an exciting backup, and he could be groomed into a future starter somewhere.
The conspiracy Caleb Williams waited until Ryan Poles traded Justin Fields to leverage the
#Bears
being forced into trading the No. 1 pick is pretty on point for Bears Twitter.
One interesting note about the
#Lions
deal with Amon-Ra St. Brown. They’re getting this done before the
#49ers
extend Brandon Aiyuk and the
#Cowboys
extend CeeDee Lamb. They’re making it harder for their playoff competition to keep their WRs before tomorrow’s draft. 🤔
The Bears had an opportunity to trade Justin Fields to a place he could start. Ryan Poles took a trade deal for WORSE draft capital with the
#Steelers
on Saturday evening.

NFL+ is close to a half hour late showing the USC pro day.
#Bears
fans paying subscriptions to watch Caleb Williams, MarShawn Lloyd, Brenden Rice and Tahj Washington cannot be happy.
Jerry Jones highlights the fact Mike McCarthy has the highest regular season winning percentage in Cowboys history. Also laments the playoff record.
As we’ve learned the previous few seasons, regular seasons win championships in Dallas!
#Cowboys
This tells you everything you need to know about what the NFL thinks of Justin Fields. Darnell Mooney turned down a 3 year extension worth $30 million with the Bears. Had a bad 2023 season and got more money. 👀
#Bears
“I’m a big believer in Eric Bieniemy. Wherever he goes he’ll be successful,” Andy Reid on former
#Chiefs
OC Bieniemy going to UCLA. Reid added he thinks Bieniemy should be a head coach at the NFL level.
It was kind of a weird set up for Drake Maye. He went through his 70 passes quickly. He was breathing hard when calling out commands from his script in between different parts of the workout. Some of the missed passes could have been due to fatigue 🤷♂️
#Bears
WR Darnell Mooney:
“Everybody knows. We’ve got everybody on our back. Everybody’s like, ‘oh my god, the Bears suck’ all that, blah blah, blah. It would definitely feel good to get a win. It would definitely change everything you have going on…”
I’d assume we’ll hear more chatter on the
#49ers
shopping Brandon Aiyuk after the Lions extended Amon-Ra St. Brown. The 49ers are going to have to pay Aiyuk closer to $30 million. I don’t see that happening soon.
Question: if the Bears are as locked in on CW as many fans seem to believe, why are they wasting both their time and the players time interviewing the other top QB’s? . I’ll hang up and listen
As the QB market takes shape over the next few days, indications are Mason Rudolph has interest from several teams. His play down the stretch for the
#Steelers
has clubs interested in him for a primary backup role.
Important note on the Justin Fields trade: At least four additional teams inquired about trading for Fields, but Fields’ representation asked for him not to be traded there. He wanted the
#Steelers
, and the
#Bears
did right by him.
