Huh? We have a replacement locked and ready to go. Now we can sign a LT.

A move that doesn’t feel good but probably is good.

2026 4th rounder per Schefty.

I guess this makes the Smith signing more palatable.

I like this part but damn he’s one of the best to ever do it.

So likely a very early 4th.

Love Thuney but hope his team sucks ass now.

Thread title needs adjustment

At LT? He played well enough to get the Chiefs to the Super Bowl and then we ran into a buzz saw. Not going to hold his super bowl performance against him.

"Something"

The point was maybe they're paying Smith because something is happening with Thuney.

Smith + the LT they’re about to sign + Kingsley.

Long and short term solution.

Yeah, it makes more sense now. Sucks to lose our best lineman but at most we had him for another season.

Why would the Bears trade a pick for a guy close to retirement? They're not ready to win anytime soon.

Got it. That's why I've been complimenting you this whole thread on your genius. You know, after DJ and Sassy smacked you around in that one thread, I thought you'd calm down and be more humble. Sad.

Boo

Gotta see the whole picture before evaluating.

You mean the thread where I came with receipts disproving Sassy's lie and you and Sassy were crickets after?
