Khalil Mack to the Bears
I just got an update saying the Bears were given the ok to negiotiate a deal with him.
It’s on ESPN. Sounds like all but a done deal. I would prefer he didn’t land in the division but, better the Bears than the Packers.
Khalil Mack - DL - RaidersESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Bears have "an agreement in place" to acquire DE Klalil Mack from the Raiders.

I just hope Barr destroys rodgers before Mack does...

It's really happening. The two sides are still working out the particulars but according to Schefter, the Raiders are "now planning to send Mack to Chicago." The 49ers, Bills, Browns, Colts, Jets and Packers were also in on Mack. The former Defensive Player of the Year has been a holdout all summer and unlike the Rams, who eventually caved into Aaron Donald's lavish contract demands, the Raiders showed little interest in signing Mack long-term. It's another puzzling move by the new Jon Gruden regime in Oakland. Obviously this is a monumental get for the Bears, who featured a surprisingly stout defense under DC Vic Fangio last season. It's unclear what the Raiders will be getting in return, though their reported asking price was a pair of first-round picks.Related: Bears
Da Bears just got better. But giving up two firsts may handicap them for a few years.
I look at this like the Bears are really only giving up one extra 1st round pick. Chicago basically unloaded 2019's 1st round pick for a proven Top 5 stud this year ... in essence giving Chicago two 1st round studs in R. Smith at MLB and Mack at LDE/OLB right now. Good gamble by Chicago, and adding those two guys could make Chicago's defense or at least the Front 7 very stout ... I'm still not sold on their secondary though.
What really worries me - Khalil Mack will be lined up against Rashod Hill, or B. O'Neill. That's a clusterf*ck of a matchup.
This came out of nowhere for me. I didn’t even know Chicago was in on Mack. Wowza.
Now Rodgers is going to need another rule protecting him.
Is it wrong that I am enjoying seeing the people on packer page losing it? Vanguard knows the answer. At least he isn't going to Green Bay.
so we keep the TE on his side to help block. its not like our offense doesnt double teams opposing studs already. I am not freaking out just yet.

It sure seems like their first round picks have been handicapping them lately...
Great move by Da Bears. Can't believe Chucky traded him.
