Tempo, care to explain…

Yes, I can explain this quite easily. First off, I don’t think you’re getting 3 1sts, 3 2nds, and a player for Caleb Williams. Something closer to what you got for Bryce Young sounds about right (still a considerable haul, though). Depends on how far you were to trade down.
Secondly, there are always franchises desperate enough to give you the farm for fresh quarterback meat. Trey Lance, Mitchell Trubisky, Bryce Young, etc. Even Fields commanded two 1st round picks on draft day and he didn’t even go top 10. Quarterbacks are like cars, once you drive it off the lot, it loses value. Especially if it’s not an All-Pro caliber player.
Would anyone give you what Carolina gave you for Bryce Young today? Of course not. Not even close. It is more likely than not, that a year from now we’ll be saying that so and so overpaid for Caleb Williams (should he be traded).
This is not complicated. It’s almost as simple as figuring out why 2024 free agents and draft picks aren’t helping the 2023 Bears.
