Fields is Sam Darnold right now (but with elite running skills).Their passing stats after 2 years are quite similar. Darnold dropped off his 3rd year and the Jets still got a 2nd, 4th, and 6th. I would think if Fields stalls in year 3 he'd still have decent value to trade. Maybe not a #1. But Fields running skills and a higher potential ceiling than Darnold I would believe if the Bears unloaded him he'd still have some value. He wouldn't be valueless like Mitch.
The wild card to me is the offensive coordinator. He hasn't proven at all to me that he is an NFL OC. For all of the talk about Fields not showing NFL passing talent what about this OC calling games. His insistence on forcing Fields to stay in the pocket doesn't make sense to me.
