Hey everyone welcome back to Waypoint Sports and sports adjacent podcast that says

out to disprove the notion that people with lives in dedicated to pixels jumping across

the screen can't also be unhealthily interested in what nerds condescendingly refer to as sports

But the bears are in an unusual timeline as a franchise. And the thought is,

would with the number one pick, you can either trade back, which is what they're most likely to do
