I don't think they will risk trading back unless it's with the Patriots, and that is highly doubtful. They need to come out of round 1 with a potential franchise QB. While nothing in the draft is a guarantee, moving out of the top 3 would decrease the odds significantly.

Well if you include JJ there are 4. There is a scenario where we could move back one spot with the Pats and still guarantee we get one of the 3(4 if you include JJ). Depends on whether we have our mind made up about someone and whether the Pats do. If they wanna throw us picks to have first choice and we like two or three of those guys equally than we would take the picks and give them first choice.

There is talk of six QBs going in the 1st round. That in and of itself would be unprecedented. It's possible we get four franchise QBs out of this draft, similar to the 2020 draft (Tua, Herbert, Burrow, and J Love...(the jury is still out on J Love maybe?)). However, it's more likely that four of the six will be Blake Bortles, Mitch Trubisky, Zach Wilson & Trey Lance.

As much as I like the idea of adding more draft picks, I think by April 24th they have to be locked in on who their guy is once the Bears draft Caleb Williams, and they have to stay at #2 and pick him. Doing anything else would be too risky.

If their pick at #2 ends up being Zach Wilson...so be it. Rinse and repeat next year.

They will certainly know who they prefer. No doubt. Just saying if that preference is slight and the Pats offer us a sweet deal who knows. Id imagine they entertain the choice of their 1 guy vs their 1A+ guy and another second, third and say next years first. I know I would.
