Foles + a pick is as good as it gets for the bears, especially if Jax eats some cap hit. That would likely impact the pick. I much prefer this to Dalton
La Canfora's claiming that the Bears are in talks with Jacksonville Jaguars about trade for Nick Foles.

Yes. The best thing for this OLine is a statue behind it.

Weaknesses
Mobility has been the Achilles heel for Foles and will likely continue to be exposed even more at the next level. He is solely a pocket passer and hardly ever moves the chains with his feet. He has the ability to extend, but he is not going to out-run any defenders at the next level. This can sometimes effect his set-up, as it can be uncoordinated at times, although rarely affects his actual pass. There are times when the ball can get away from him when throwing deep, and he has struggled with accuracy there. His release is sufficient but not fast by any means. His judgment with the ball is somewhat questioned, as he can be slow to get rid of the ball and scramble into trouble.

The Jaguars would save little from this move, and still have huge dead cap space for 2020. Foles would take up most of the cap the Bears have remaining, which means we won't have an ILB or SS to start, no upgrades at RG, TE or CB2 and no depth at OL, DL, and WR unless they are drafted or dumpster dives in free agency.
Not gonna happen as it's not worth it for either team.

2019 NFL free agency: Here's an early look at six who'll provide the most bang for the buck
By Jason LaCanfora
1. Kevin White - He needs to get out of Chicago, badly, after barely seeing the field since being drafted seventh overall in 2015. He can't stay healthy, but has world-class speed and I will always take a flier on that. The metrics that made him so attractive coming out of West Virginia should still be there. He remains raw, but should come cheap and this just smells like the kind of guy Bill Belichick would be all over.

As someone who doesn't want them to trade for Nick Foles, this makes me feel a lot better.

This is one of the few teams I hope JLC isnt bullshitting as this trade might get a mid round pick. And then hopefully they cut Foles too.

Right, because the O-line is guaranteed to not improve at all from last year...

You think he is trying to stay relevant by talking about a back up QB to the Bears? lol

Liked for your reasoning. I would be sad though and I cannot see much celebration around Bears fandom if it happens but what the hell do I know?

Probably not but Pace should be, and Nagy should also be. If he phones in another year* trying to prove he needs more from management, he is risking his career.
* - assuming he phoned in 2019 week-by-week to prove to upper management he needs a QB ... or else he sucked that bad as a game planner and a playcaller that there would be no reason to hope at all.

Just a thought guys, what if you get a pick in return? Remember the Brock Osweiller trade? If memory serves me correctly the Texans gave up Brock, a 6th that year and a 2nd the following year for a 4th from the Browns.
Would you guys do that deal if you were compensated in draft picks?

The Tannehill trade was: Tannehill + 2019 6th for a 2019 7th and a 2020 4th. Foles and Tannehill have/had somewhat similar contracts. Dolphins and Jags are in similar positions where all their best players want out and they have a bunch of cap nobody wants, so they can afford to eat money.
Foles has a harder contract to renegotiate/get out of, but he also has that playoff run lifting him up. And potentially has a larger trade market. So, I could see something like:
Foles + a 2020 4th from Jags for a 2020 5th (maybe a swap of 4ths) and a conditional 2021 4th from Bears

All I've been able to find on this La Canfora "Foles to the Bears" rumor is this:
“He has strong ties to the coach and he’s cheaper than Rivers. He was with (GM Chris) Ballard in KC. The Bears have some interest too, and (coach Matt Nagy) likes him, too. I think he gets traded.” - Jason La Canfora
He seems to be suggesting that Foles will be traded and throws out a few options with little conviction. I think he was implying Indy might have some interest and just kinda threw out there that Nagy likes Foles.
It's a lock. Big Dick Nick, Bears Super Bowl 2021.

If they are not sending a pick back Pace is a fucking idiot [TM Omelet].
Christ his contract is a turd and he would have to agree to some serious work on it.
