Official draft order:

Friday, April 24
Round 2 – Pick 11, 43rd overall (from Raiders)
Round 2 – Pick 18, 50th overall

Saturday, April 25
4th Round – Pick 34, 140th overall (compensatory pick)
5th Round – Pick 18, 163rd overall
6th Round – Pick 17, 196th overall
6th Round – Pick 21, 200th overall (from the Eagles)
7th Round – Pick 12, 226th overall (from the Raiders)
7th Round – Pick 19, 233rd overall

If he signs elsewhere would we get a compensatory pick next year? Likely no way you could trade him and get a fourth round pick due to his high cap number, it would make more sense to let him sign elsewhere and use his cap money to bring in another OLB that can bring consistent pressure opposite Mack.

Trevathan 3yr extension

What a dumb move

Probably just reworked the money to lower his cap hit. Kwiatkowski likely priced himself out of the Bears plans.

3 years means more guaranteed money so that cap hits coming plus some. And he can barely play anymore. Very amusing extension

It doesn't mean more guaranteed money. His $8M cap hit this year was likely lowered. His play has NEVER been an issue. Staying healthy is the problem.

It absolutely means more guaranteed money. What do you mean it doesn’t? Name the last 3 year extension a veteran LB signed that didn’t contain new guaranteed money. I’ll wait.

Also amused at the his play comment. He wasn’t any good last year.

Any guaranteed money will likely be his cap hit for this year that would be spread out. He had very little leverage and this allows him to save face.

He was fine before his injury. He's the heart and soul of the defense.

He’s trash. This was a good move for the Packers, Vikings, and Lions.

Your player opinions have been shit recently. He'll probably be an all pro player next season.

He’s gonna be out of league in 2 years and the backup FA you now can’t sign is already a better player. Great extension tho, I’m a fan

I think it will be a good off-season for the RAIDERS, if they avoid signing any LBs from the Bears.

Interesting move, says a lot about the expected market for Kwiatkowski and the lack of depth on the roster at ILB. What once looked like a promising position group took a step backward last year with Smith's issues. They have to hope Hicks comes back at full strength because the ILB groups was exposed when he was out and they almost tapped out in the Raiders game.

I hate this move, this was the perfect time to move on from Trevathan. He's 30, misses 5 games a year as a bear.

Not real excited about this. Signing a 30 year old player with injury history isn't usually a good idea.

It's a 1 year "prove it" deal that frees up cap space for the Bears and gives them a little insurance if/when Kwiatkowski walks.

I was prepared for and expecting Trevathan to be gone this season. This signing is a little surprising.

I was as well. The market for Kwiatkowski must be crazy.

He was not trash when he played but that is 18 games missed in 4 years with the team. In fact, he was a difference maker when he played and a team leader. Signing him guarantees that you lose Kwitkowski, as he is going to look to be a starter. However, you must sign a pretty decent backup because you can't expect Trevathan to play 16 games.

Odd signing so early especially because the money seems significant.

Could Kwiatkowski really have gotten that expensive? The guy showed for the first time in four years and I'm still not sold on him in pass coverage. I like to keep guys we drafted and developed.

I looked earlier for terms. Did you see it somewhere ?

Kwiatkowski isn't worth what he's about to get paid, I'm guessing. This is functionally a one year deal.

Is that what we did last year?
