1. No way in hell right?

2. Mel’s a big reason why the NFL draft is as big is it is. But he also is pretty bad at evaluating prospects and he definitely should not be listened to for anything not related the draft

3. Jfc imagine the melt down of the fan base. Me included.

4. Lol no chance

5. That… would not be ideal

6. Please god no

7. I mean, I’m sure people in the bears organization are actively trying to get that narrative out there

8. Chicago gets falcons first and second round picks

   Atlanta gets fields and chicagos first round pick

   Seems fair

9. Reminder that he had Malik Willis as a first rounder in his final 2022 mock

10. If they give us the 9th overall pick…. Sure

11. Fuck that all the way to hell

12. This is all fucking clickbait right now.

    Basically 99% of draft speculation totally changes after the combine.

    The trade is actually highly possible but the exchange value is false.

13. Throw in DJ Moore and you got a deal

14. Kiper is the reason I mute the draft

15. Mel Kiper been smokin crack since the 80’s

16. God no. Trade up if that’s the price

17. I haven’t been here as long as others, I’ll admit that. But I feel pretty strong about my fandom over the last 15 years. This would be the single dumbest move we ever make if they pushed through with it, and I’d probably enter meltdown mode tbh

18. I’d like Fields if we can’t trade up for JD, but even a 2nd feels rich for an unproven commodity that only has 1-2 years left on his rookie deal.

19. We deserve 100 years of losing seasons if we are dumb enough to do that

20. Is Mel smoking crack?

21. As a bears fan I support crackhead Kiper’s theory

22. That’s insane.

    I wouldn’t mind getting Fields, not for the 8th overall pick.

    Another ESPN hate piece on Atlanta sports. Why I stopped watching them years ago.

23. LOL

24. Fields is barely worth a 2nd and 4th as is. Mel Kiper once again showing everyone why he’s a moron.

25. LOL hell no

26. Dude has lost his marbles

27. No.

28. I don’t hate it, but this trade won’t happen until we find our next coach and he approves it. However if they made it a second rounder, I might jump at it before then.

29. Mel is high AF and should be retired

30. I hope not

31. Who the hell is Mel Kiper anyway?

32. Kiper steals money for a living. His prognostications are terrible
