Someday, scientists will study Terry Fontenot. He turned down a free 2025 R4 pick to pay Penix a less-expensive slot price. What did he think? That the Bears were moving up for a quarterback seven picks after taking Caleb Williams?! 😂😂
The #Bears were open to trading a future 4th to the #Falcons to move from 9 to 8 to secure Rome Odunze. Seems like Atlanta wasn't interested. The Bears still got Odunze. But this feels noteworthy after Atlanta lost a future 5th this week for tampering.

Billy, this is Joe Milton. He's a quarterback. He’s 6’5, 245 pounds, he can do standing backflips, and he might have the strongest arm on planet earth. He is one of the most physically gifted players the position has ever seen. His defect is that he can’t read a defense, and he only throws fastballs.
