If they pay him market price - he is going to make 3-4 million next year. That is more than any 3rd round pick will make next year. He would be stupid to go pro over that type of money.

I don't think he gets the waiver, and they have painted themselves into a corner with other QB's which is good for us because they are recruiting other positions in the portal the exact same way they were when lane was there. They don't have a QB on campus that can get them to 8 wins currently, if Trinidad doesn't get the waiver. I've been told Deuce Knight wants to start and not sit next year. I think he ends up back at AU and the bears get screwed.
If they pay him market price for him? He's getting 6. There's multiple programs that offered him 5 to get in the portal. And the first round pick stuff is more real than you think. Also, not for nothing, he's 6'1 and it's a legit 6'1.
