Would you trade for Tristan Wirfs? Type ‘Y’ for Yes or ‘N’ for No

[lokitruss]

Hey let's plug in Rocket Money with the Bears and cancel our Nate Davis subscription 😅

[HauntingHistory]

I don't think the Bears are in a financial position to sign Wirfs. Unless we can unload Nate Davis and his contract, there is no way this can happen. Especially after extending Moore.

[Mario-cokg]

We need someone opposite of sweat no one to old someone young and worth the money Im tired of waiting for year it's like watching the Cubs and waiting till next

[tucox]

Geez. Need the season to start already. Fantasy land over here

[Keithjhall]

We should be focusing on a premier center OR guard! I believe the Bears are set on the edges, but the guard/center positions need to be upgraded.

[tebobo]

If it's a possibility to trade for Tristan Wirf. I say yes, oh God yes by all means trade!
Tristan has put up one of the best combine I've seen from an offensive lineman.

[Percussionist]

I LIKE #2 better than #1 He's an awesome OT, pick him up!

[CabVideoz]

Consider for sure. I think the interior though is so bad... They've been trying to shuffle the guards and centers for years now to no avail and if it isn't good up front in the middle that'll have much more negative impact on Caleb than an all pro tackle would have positive

[donwanderley]

What happened to the Brandon Aiyuk trade “rumor”? 😂😂😂

[danielfaflik]

I get the attraction for sure 100%. So he would make one lock on the line getting paid out big. Depending on what happens with Jenkins we don't really have any big time money contracts on the Oline atm.

[OEsParadise]

Rather upgrade the interior of the oline. Our tackles are fine

[QuilliamFancySon]

The idea of having Wirfs on the line is definitely intriguing but can we afford to pay his giant salary along with everyone else’s? Plus if Darnell Wright hits which seems fairly likely, how flexible will the cap space situation be when he’s due for an extension at the end of his rookie deal? I think in the end Tampa shells out the money to keep him around, he’s just too good to let go of.

[DoctorDave]

I would rather they include Nate Davis in a trade. Yet why should they make a trade when Connor Williams is still available for money only.

[cicero]

It’s not easy finding any quality offensive lineman at any position interior or tackles

[EvanMiller-qj]

Tristan just received a massive contract.

[Surferdude]

Guys like him can change team! Hell ya trade for him

[Popculture]

Wright will be fine. Don't be panicking over Training Camp practices. Bears Defense is a Top 10 unit

[DAsbury]

As much as we need someone like him, that’s a big ask…and if Jenkins has a good year, he’s gonna wanna get paid next year.

[martinmelhus]

I like the idea of getting a premier LT, but Poles is a good judge of OL talent, and I'd prefer for him to find a high caliber LT prospect with one of the Bears regular picks. They just extended DJ, and the fine players Poles has picked are starting to be ready for their second contracts, which will be expensive. Too many high priced acquisitions will put the Bears in cap hell, and they do have to pay Rome and Caleb someday. So I'm a no on Wirfs, unless he would take a team friendly contract.
