With four games left, the 2023 NFL draft picture is finally coming into focus. Right now, the Chicago Bears control the #2 overall pick in the 1st round. They’ll be guaranteed at least a top three selection if they lose their remaining four games. That puts them in a serious position of power. GM Ryan Poles would have significant flexibility to either take the best player on his board or, as many Bears fans continue to urge, consider trading down to stockpile more picks. Moves up into the top five are commonplace these days as teams hunt for the next great quarterback. With Justin Fields in place, the Bears don’t have that concern.<\/p>\n

That means they can shop the pick to a QB-needy team for a king’s ransom. However, certain conditions must be met for that to happen. They need teams behind them that desire a quarterback and at least one team further down the board willing to move up. One team that seemed to meet both criteria was the Detroit Lions. While they’ve had some recent success, most people think they’ll jump at the chance to find a quarterback to eventually replace Jared Goff. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network poured cold water on that idea.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of the NFL world considers Jared Goff to be a bridge for the Lions, a starter to help them get to the real franchise starting QB at some point in the future. That is, everyone except the Lions.<\/p>\n

Winner of four of its last five games, Detroit is one of the hottest teams in the NFL. Goff’s play is a big reason why.<\/p>\n

As the Lions prepare to face the Vikings today, they do so with a 5-7 record and with Goff playing as well as he’s played since 2018.<\/p>\n

As sources have explained, Goff is believed to be their starting QB. Period.<\/strong> Not just until someone else comes along. With all due respect to the unknown \u2014 weird things happen in the NFL \u2014 the plan is for Goff to be in Detroit for the future.<\/strong>\u201c<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
