He lands in an offense with a (supposedly) quarterback-friendly coach in Matt Nagy and a decent arsenal of weapons. I'm a huge fan of this pick since Fields was my #2 quarterback going into the draft. "Fields gives immediate rushing upside and joins a decent enough team that he can be a solid contributor as a QB2 right off the bat." I'm guessing Tomlin is assuming Fields will start over Andy Dalton, which for some reason (unbeknownst to me) is not a guarantee. 1.02 - Justin Fields, QB, Chicago BearsĪs with the NFL draft, the draft starts at pick two, but this time Michael Tomlin grabs Justin Fields as his QB of the future, rather than Zach Wilson.
