Bill Belichick said good morning to me and E.J. at practice yesterday and I melted on the spot. This whole trip has been worth it just for that. Oh and our Shrine Bowl recap pod and Super Bowl preview pod should be up this week: www.youtube.com/@BootlegFootball
thats incredibile
did he know who you were?
@@akimfarrow4653 absolutely not haha. I don't think I could handle it if he knew me. That would break my brain.
That's terrifying I would assume that he said good morning so that way he could find out your name to sell your soul to get his juju back.
Holy hell! That’s amazing. I’d be starstruck as hell! I’m sure he does know who you are, actually!
This. You need to do this for all 32 teams after every season. And I would watch every, single, one of them. Your opinions on what it wrong with the teams - from ownership to the players - is entertaining as hell. Equally as entertaining (and quite frankly exciting) is your take on what changes need to be made to fix the teams is hands down awesome. The content gives fans (yes, I am a Cowboys fan) hope and a reason to look forward to the next season. Appreciate this stuff my dude, I really mean it.
^^^^^
Do you want him to die? :D
Absolutely
Down for that
Me too!
Fastest. Click. Ever. Brett+Bears= peak content
Hell yeah brother 🐻⬇️
Brett, Bears, Battlestar Galactica
Us bears fans have been praying for this video
Same... I'm gonna load this up, and carve out some time to watch it on the television...
Read my mind 🐻🐻🐻🐻
"My best comp for him is a moose" had me dead
I Read this comment when he said it wtf 😂😂
Yeah, I'm like wondering, what TE had the nickname "Moose". Of course there was Bears WR Muhsin "Moose" Muhammad. LOL
IF Sean Payton fixes the broncos offense I would love to see a comparison of the plays and schemes that worked with Sean and the ones that didn't work under Hackett
Payton’s a good coach so they’ll probably be alright, but his quick game offensive doesn’t fit Russ at all. Not saying he can’t adapt it’s just kind of interesting
@@osirisapex7483 I think he would have to make a small shift, but yeah Russ even in Seattle was a grind the ball down the field, where Brees would run that ball over the field.
@@osirisapex7483 they just need to score 17-20 points a game and Payton can do that with anyone.
Russ had a firm hand in the plays called and ran…. From my understanding, Hackett basically let Russ have equal control!
So the biggest difference is Payton is not going to let him play Peyton Manning lol!
@@jayanthsambaraju6562 their D will regress big time next year
On behalf of all Bears fans, this was sick :) Thanks for thinking of us Brett
I totally agree and also, thank you. This is a killer breakdown and projection and all of your work is stellar. We appreciate you. Now I request that you do an update after all the activities that have occurred over the last month.
Can’t tell you how excited I am for this offseason for Justin and the future of this franchise. To see the kid break league records with his legs when running was never the main part of his game and wasn’t why he was drafted, was insane.
Exactly
People don’t know that. He was scouted as a pocket passer. He even left Georgia cuz they wanted him to play like Lamar Jackson and put him in for QB runs. Everything extra is just a pleasant surprise.
Eh. I mean its sorta the same how DJ's athleticism was an extra feature that Daboll was smart enough to turn into a feature with his current offensive rebuild. His pocket passing game is still pretty good but its hard to exploit that without dependable receivers. Field's running ability with his size will still be a threat with teams choosing to play light boxes/zone until the Bears run game starts to rip explosives. Bears offense just needs more receiver help to take advantage of openings when the opposing defenses decide to put more guys in the box or blitz.
He’s a great runner. He mostly runs because he is a dogshit passer, however
@@t4d0W DJ is not anywhere close to the athleticism of Fields 😂
There is just one big issue. He had absolutely studs at the Wr position that were simply better than the people on the other side of the field. So the bears drafted the best version of him when he’s surrounded with talent. These last two years are what he looks like with none. So you guys definitely have an uphill battle in having him reach his potential
This vid is absolutely beautiful brett. I know this took a lot of work, but I would KILL to see some more of these for other teams. Keep it up Brett!
As a Bears fan, this made me rock hard. Even if it doesn't play out like in this video (which it won't), it's incredibly fun just to fantasize about the potential deals, trades, picks etc. considering the amount of toys we can play with, as you put it.
I'd personally prefer Will Anderson over Carter, if both are there at 4 (unlikely), especially if we do get Payne. Fingers crossed.
Some new names unknown to me that you really got me hyped up for, I will be checking all of them out for sure. You got me hyped for Teven Jenkins with your video, I was ecstatic when we drafted him, and I am still stanning him to this day, so why not huh? :D Good stuff, man.
I can say for damn sure Tyjae Spears would be a good pick. Remember, Tulane threw the ball 7 times, 4 on the game winning drive, in scoring 46 on USC and winning, and Tyjae had been that guy that whole season and his whole time getting PT at Tulane
Ryan Poles is going to eat this offseason
I would hope he eats everyday, otherwise he’d be very unhealthy
@@DrummerTF1 🤣
👀
Would like a bit more explanation as to why the Bears trade a likely top 5 pick that they could use on Harrison Jr. next season and spend 24M AAV on Tunsil instead of continuing to develop Braxton Jones who has a ton of potential. Not to mention the Texans dead cap hit from trading Tunsil would leave them unlikely to do so especially with bringing in a new QB
Priority number one is getting Fields the best possible supporting cast this year so they can cleanly evaluate him to determine if they want to do the 5th year option. Year three is it.
Year four is a total afterthought to me.
I had the same question and alot of the problems came from the interior with whitehair, Sam, and Tevin when not playing. Tired of Bears constantly moving lineman and not letting them develop. Bears should replace the LG,C,RT, possible RG depending on Tevin's health. Plus the Bears are more than Jalen Carter or Will Anderson away Poles seems like to make calculated moves not values draft picks more than free agency. I would rather trade with Carolina in hopes of getting the Miami-49ers deal maybe they add Burns just to get the qb for Frank.
My first thought as well, Braxton Jones looked awesome this past season, signing 2 big money OTs makes absolutely no sense when you have a super cheap young guy who was one of the better run blocking tackles in the league as a rookie
Plus with the Indy pick being possibly high next year get Marvin Harrison jr is a Must. When was the last time bears had a generational talent on the offense we had plenty on the defense and how did it go.
I think you missed this a bit. No extension for EJax?, no replacement for Monty, who is a FA, and completely ignores Braxton as a high-quality tackle prospect.
Spending and building this team like an all in year goes entirely against everything Poles has established in terms of his mindset.
Hard pass on trading the Colts pick for Tunsil. I’ll ride with Braxton jones with a full year in the Bears weight room. Like you said, that colts pick will be a top 5 next year. Possibly even 1 overall if they ride with that new rookie. I’ll use the tunsil money on another corner and linebacker. I’ll ride with your picks in the draft and add more because we keep the colts picks u sent to Houston in the tunsil deal that WILL NOT HAPPEN.
Yea trading the Colts pick for Tunsil, which like he said could be a top 5.
Id use that on M. Harrison Jr, who will be as good as J. Jefferson if not better.
@@MRDAthe5TH exactly my guy!! Or quite possibly be #1 again next year and we trade down slightly for a Qb needy team while still selecting Harrison.
Yeah this is a good video but that Tunsil trade is awful. Braxton Jones showed potential to be a franchise left tackle for years. If anything you just sign the best right tackle possible.
"Its hard to imagine it getting even worse." As a bears fan its very easy to imagine, I wake up in the middle of the night from imagining it.
I love these videos!!! Huge Chicago Bears fan here and man I hope they do smart thinking this year! Thank you so much for the great content. And I would also like to ask what your favorite team is too. Thank you!
I'm pretty sure that he is a Texans fan
He's a Texans fan, originally. Bears have been his 'second' team for a long time though.
Is it wrong if I want Braxton Jones to stay at LT?
I can understand wanting to upgrade at LT and bring in someone who's done it well consistently, but then to go after an RT as well and take Braxton Jones totally out of the lineup I can't see happening. The front office loves him, and he played about as well if not better than you could expect from a 5th rounder from Southern Utah, starting every game this season. I have a hard time envisioning any scenario where he isn't starting at one of the two OT spots next season.
Lovie Smith saved our franchise
I loved this when it came out. Thanks for your work. I would love to see your update after this last month has transpired.
@brettkollman can you do an update on the Bears after the draft please please please pretty please? I’ll make a contribution to your payment platform of choice.
Great video! Big fan of most of the moves with the possible exception of the tunsil one. I’d give Braxton Jones another year at tackle, and that colts first is gonna be valuable
If the bears do half this well, I'll be so goddamn excited for next season. Hell, I already am.
Hope you do a deep dive retrospective on the bears actual moves when you get closer to the season (or next offseason)
Great concept for a video. You should do this for the bottom 10 teams every year. It would be nice see what the GMs are thinking
You should maybe do a live show checking back on your predictions in a couple months!
This made my day. It’s hard to have hope as a Bears fan but this video gave me some for sure. As a Boston College -> University of Minnesota transfer, I would explode if the Bears got Zay Flowers and John Michael Schmitz. Let’s pray Ryan Poles is a subscriber🙏
I love this style of video!!
Fields to Flowers has a nice little naming thing behind it lol
Too bad that he’s NEVER going to be there at that point. He won’t make it out of the 1st round. He said 40% but that’s generous. I would say closer to 5% if that.
Amazing content as usual, Brett. love the aggressiveness to fix the trenches on both sides & the weapons, LOVE the understanding that Indy is the pinnacle trade partner for Da Bears, and love the overall pursuit of happiness (pls) without having to delve into the nitty gritty of the entire offseason when so little is known right now.
I'm not lovin' the Tunsil move when they could have Braxton Jones + key Day 1 and/or 2 rookies at a fraction of the cost. Poles wants to build through the draft (who doesn't) and it's not crazy to think that Braxton has a chance to be a solid starter if he can improve upon his All-Rookie year. Very understandable move though.
Cody Whitehair is a prime candidate for getting cut, which sucks. But it's expected that they will pursue a LG as Cody regressed a bit last year. Maybe that was health, maybe not.
D-Mont just might be returning on a "team-friendly" contract and it was no secret that Flus and Co. loved the way he handled business, on/off the field. HITS philosophy 101. Having him would make me feel better about Tyjae's role early on but it could be crowded.
CB is a sneaky need for them. Kyler has shown inside/outside versatility but they need another guy at the other spot. Seems destined to be Flus' nickelback.
Extensions for Kmet, Jaylon Johnson, Mooney?? Poles will take swings at athletes and looks for "resilience" above all else in prospects.
Bear Down.
So sad I’m stuck working. Gonna blast through this video the second I get home. Brett and Bears go together like whiskey and vermouth
Carpano Antica is where it's at. 👍🥃
Like Modelos and whippits brother
His name is Da’Ron not “darrin.” Also he is 100% getting tagged or extended by Washington so you would have to trade for him. Also coming off of a career high 11.5 sacks and playing like a top 5 DT (not just nose) 17 is probably on the lower end
Great video! I really liked the WR run in day 2 and 3 I think that’s a good way of adding talent without over-investing after the claypool debacle. Only thing I’d change would be McGary. I think they’re really high on Braxton Jones, for fair reasons, so I think they get one tackle. Seeing Laremy show up was exciting tho. Love having a Brett+bears video!!!
Honestly think we could be fine with either getting Laremy or McGary but we don't necessarily need both. We need RT addressed and the C position addressed and possibly LG.
I'll be honest, I'm okay with missing out on Jalen Carter or Will Anderson to get an additional first and DJ Moore.
A little surprised that you didn't draft a CB or LB but overall I'd be very happy if things turn out this way. Thanks as always Brett!
My thought too. Maybe 1 less receiver in the first 100 picks, and take a DB instead
@@williamheller1362 Yup, agreed.
The tunsil trade is horrid
@@musclecarenjoyer yes it is.
I liked the mock only thing is drafting 3 receivers is unrealistic for the bears who have more needs on edge
I love how he said how center is so important for someone like Justin fields since having a great line and especially great center has helped jalen hurts
JF#1 need some bone crushing body guards
I love how high quality not only the content is, but the editing is stellar too!
A genuine blessing when Brett Kollmann makes a video on your team 🙏
As a bears fan I have trouble sleeping at night knowing we essentially traded JSN or Flowers for Chase fucking Claypool.
The jury is still out on Claypool. yes the price we gave up for him was high, but the free agency class for WR this year is barren, and rookie WRs are hit or miss. Claypool is talented and experienced, has proven in previous seasons that he can be a force. If our offensive unit as a whole can improve this offseason, I'm sure Claypool will make us Bears fans forget about whatever draft capital we gave up for him
Well I’m not gonna argue with Jay Cutler
@@drakemoraczewski8519 lmao😅
Brett, you think Brady will perform better than Romo in the booth?
UHHHHHHEEEEEOOOOAAAHUHHHHHH I DONT KNOW JIMMMM
well he certainly wouldn't ride mahomes as much as romo does
Update. Bears trade 1st overall pick to the Panthers for the 9th, 61st, 1st round 2024, 2nd round 2025 and DJ Moore, a legit #1 wide receiver.
I'll admit I thought you overvalued their 1st overall with your prediction but I think the Bears actually did better. Nice job Ryan Pace!
Since the Flowers pick is honestly a coinflip on still being there I could def see Hutchenson taken, I feel if they also build a beefy tight end core they could have a crazy run game with the rest of your investments into Oline. I love seeing these ready to bounce and grow teams
That's one heck of a haul! Just the top three picks would change this team dramatically! Love Zay Flowers ! I'd probably add a CB in the 3rd or 4th round! Free agent pickups were "All BEASTS." If you hit on five of those targets, we'd be well on our way to contending!
🐻⬇️
Xavier Hutchinson is absolutely unreal. I went to almost every home game and he was our only offense at times
Jesus Christ I was expecting an "overhaul" but I wasn't prepared for *this* kind of overhaul. Tunsil would be a great get, although I'd hope to keep the IND 2024 first for next year so Marvin Harrison Jr. can wear a Bears jersey.
I love the Zay flowers pick. He is Elite and would definitely help. I hope that claypool pick isn’t the one they would need to draft him outright.
If i recall, they added over $30M after trading away R Quinn and R Smith, so it's over $130M, so you have $30M left to work with.
Love this Brett. Thanks for giving me Bears content!! I think Braxton Jones was serviceable last year but is going to make a big enough jump to justify allocating the salary cap elsewhere. Love the idea of investing in 3 DL.
This was my issue with it. I don't think you give up draft capital to replace him for a guy you have to pay.
A Hefty Contract and the 1st round pick from the Colt(2024); Potential Top 5.
Hi! I'm surprised I didn't see a patreon for your bootleg football channel. I was hoping you guys would release a draft prospect ranking sheet. I love watching your clips from both channels. Thanks.
He should do this for the Texans as well lol
In that one he'll keep Tunsil lmao
@@chadrobert116 unless if he uses Tunsil in a trade package for the first pick to ensure Bryce Young 😉
Great video one of your best. Would legit be perfect for all 32 teams. That’s a lot of work but would absolutely money for you during draft season. All the best Brett. Best football content creator on UA-cam.
I know these probably take a lot of time but if you could do this for like the first 5 picks or like the top teams to rebuild would be amazing to see
The question is: why would Chicago backload all contracts like that, just to have a chance to make the playoffs that one year, only to be cap-strapped to hell the next season?
26,6 Million more would be the AVG anual value of these five players combined in the following season(s) compared to season one.
Thats huge and doesnt make any sense to me... why would they do it like that?
Did i miss some of the „cap magic“ tricks? As far as i am concerned you can restructure and push down the line all you want, but eventually you will have to pay the player ( if its guaranteed money ) and it will count towards the cap.
Sure if you tell me you cut Hargrave after two seasons that makes it better, but he wouldnt agree to a contract that is 10m guaranteed but nothing else the first two seasons and 40m in non-guaranteed money the following two years.. doesnt make sense, at least for me.
So is there any reason why you should have backloaded contracts as a up and coming team?
To me frontloaded would make more sense.. pay the players while you still have cap and save on them later on when you become a real contender..
But maybe that wouldnt have made for a exciting video bcs they wouldnt have signed as many guys...
The evolution in terms of quality in your videos is absolute insane man. Keep it up!
They are really, really nicely and professionally produced, not just nicely scripted and edited. You can tell Brett puts a lot of money & effort into producing top-tier, quality content, not just cranking out as much content as quickly as possible.
Chase fucking Claypool. LOL. I said the same thing out loud when I read of that trade....
Never say "there's nowhere to go but up" when you're the Bears staff. :D
Most unrealistic situation I've seen so far. Idk what's worse.. Bears fans expecting to see a franchise trade 5-6 draft picks to move up a couple spots for our #1 pick or this..
The fucked themselves HARDDDDD with that chase Claypool trade wow
they can recoup an early second pretty easily with a trade down
@@ironfistalexander3246 yeah but they could have still traded down and still have their second instead of a mid receiver. And I'm a Steelers fan saying this.
@@joshh.2159 the trade isn’t great but considering the WR free agent class and the fact that fields and claypool only played ONE game where they both got >50% of snaps together, i’m not ready to make a verdict
i think saying they’re “fucked” is a bit exaggerated, that makes it sounds like the trade set their franchise back multiple years. the steelers got some good value, the bears have so much capital they can pretty much shrug it off
Love the video, would definitely watch for most other teams in the league. I think the Giants situation could be interesting to focus on, with DJ, Barkley , decent cap space but also some crappy contracts
As a Bears fan, I can’t wait for this entire offseason to blow up in our faces because I genuinely can’t imagine it working out because I haven’t associated NFL football and joy together in over a decade because of this team
Bummmerrr
Had to play against Jalen Carter in high school my junior year. I Went to Oviedo we were playing them in a pre-season scrimmage he was trying maybe 20% at best. First play he shoves our out of the way with one arme picks off the screen pass and runs it back for a td. I knew then he was just different.
Important to note, that Poles is famous in KC for managing the Cap. He's a frugal type, and won't overpay like that contract that Roquan got.
That's why he did next to nothing last offseason, choosing instead to eat the dead cap to free it up for this offseason. So he will take a calculated approach.
Do this for my Bucs, please. I'd love to know how you would approach our QB situation with the limited cap space available
I dont get the Tunsil trade. You have a young LT that played EVERY SNAP this season and at a good level for a rookie. Not to mention sending a 2nd and 3rd for him. Just too many holes on this team to make a move like that.
I want to inject this into my veins. Need this for every team. The production quality is fantastic and I know this must’ve been an insane amount of work but just know that is is VERY much appreciated.
I would die of happiness if our offseason went like this lol. The draft was a little bit of overkill at the WR position but that's just nit picking. A+ mock
Great stuff brett. You need to do this for all the "BAD" TEAMS. the good teams we could care less about. Less stress for u my dude.
overall as a Bears fan I'm a big fan of this! I love how much investment there was for the trenches and getting Fields some guys to throw too. My only additions would be to re-sign Montgomery (I know you shouldnt pay RBs, but Herbert can't pass-block and Monty is still a hell of a runner.), cut Cody Whitehair for cap savings (love you Cody but its time), and to maybe invest in another TE because Kmet still has not sold me after three seasons.
Great video! That would be an amazing offseason for the Bears!
You just wrote the blueprint to making the Bears a playoff team NEXT season. Which would take the Bears out of the running for Marvin Harrison Jr. Thanks alot. lol
Brett - could you do an explanation video on NFL cap space? No matter how much I hear about it, I just get more confused.
Would be cool to see you explain it with your narrative & visual editing style
I will be watching the Bears this offseason. They have so much and it will be extremely interesting to see how they rebuild.
I love this video. I think the only thing missing would be a depth chart of what the 2023 Bears would be after the moves
I’d love a New York giants one, especially due to the Daniel jones situation.
It would be awesome if John Michael Smith came to the bears. Remember going to highschool w him in Chicago heights at marian!
Absolutely fantastic video. Only thing that I would have potential questions on is the Tunsil trade. Having Braxton Jones be a bright spot on the line at left tackle this past year definitely makes that trade a little tricky in my opinion.
I think you should also go over possible extensions and cuts for players currently on the team.
The Bears got a better haul from the 1st overall pick than your best case scenario, somehow
Bears trade with Panthers get a whole load of picks and DJ Moore thoughts?
This was badass! I always love your videos, but this was nuts! Keep it up man!
I love that type of video!! You should do with the Houston Texans too, Brett!
Only problem, who are this teams starting lbs? I get sanborn but who else?
The Bears are gonna be really exciting to watch if Fields can develop more as a passer.
Please keep doing bears videos!
Every video I watch of yours help me learn more and more of the game. I’m so glad I found your channel. Keep up the great work.
They should take Young/Levis at 1
It’s looking like Brett struck out on all his FA moves lol
Now do the texans. Dew it. I beg
Dammit brett stop hogging all the receivers, the Giants need them more than you do
As a bears fan love this off season idea. only thing I would maybe change is if we could get an established WR in addition to some young guys. It's an area we really need to address on offense but I do think fixing that line helps a lot. Also it could be wishful thinking but depending on who the colts take I would love to keep that pick and trade ours haha
Hey Brett, thank you for making a video around my favorite NFL franchise, congrats on all of your success and god.bless you and your loved ones
I love the moves you made in your dream scenario. Only thing I would do differently:
- Not sign Hargrave if Payne is signed - then the Carter pick makes all the more sense. Then use that cap space to extend potentially Mooney/Johnson/Kmet
As Bret said Hargrave is essentially a 2 year rental if the terms are right. He can be released after 3rd year and it won't really hit the Bears on the cap hard. Those 2 years are fine to have Carter grow into his replacement essentially. Also in 3rd downs (the pressure downs) giving the offense a Carter/Hagrave look up the middle is pretty nasty overall. Besides depth is paramount for building a young roster because in case Carter goes down, whose a quality interior penetrator that can replace him for reps?
LOVE this kind of content - keep it coming!!!!
Please do one for the Houston Texans! Love your videos keep up the good stuff like I know you will .
Curious what you think of Braxton Jones potential and future with the team. Was an above average LT with plenty of room to grow. With that said, I would heavily invest in RT, LG, and C in FA + draft.
I think Braxton Jones is a promising future LT. JM Schmitz would be a welcome upgrade over both Patrick and Mustipher. Honestly, this whole mock off-season would be insane without the Tunsil addition. Use that to resign Montgomery and Mooney.
Great job Brett. Keep the content coming!
In hindsight how does their trade that they made look?
Send this to Ryan Poles please. Thanks.
Absolutely love your content Brett! Keep it up!
"He actively *hates* the concept of defense"
Ahhh....
As a former o-lineman, that warms my heart.
There's a lot of great football UA-camrs and I greatly enjoy watching a lot of them, but man Brett the production value of your videos is simply unmatched
Please do more of these videos! I absolutely love this !!
Zay Flowers is going to the Steelers at 32
Zach Kuntz > Noah Gindorf
Did you just off-season GM the bears lmao. Holy crap man. Best content I’ve seen in a WHILE
if you can, I’d love to see all 32
