My question is, how often will they have 3 TE sets?
It’s not really about 13 but having various looks out of 12. I think playing a bunch of 12 would be beneficial for Williams too.
13 would be an option with that group of players as well.
Also, guys get injured. I want to keep talented players, not trade them.

Been on the Bowers bandwagon since September 2022 and still aboard. I think he's going to be a stud at the next level.
Maybe cold cement can learn a thing or two from brick bowser

Having Kmet, Everett, and Bowers would be pouring too much resources into the TE position. It'd be kinda dumb. I get that Bowers is a great TE prospect, but Everett would be the odd man out and CHI just signed him for $6M/year (which isn't the end of the world).
it just wouldn't be an efficient use of resources. No team needs that type of TE depth, I'm sorry,

Guys get injured at all the other positions as well. What happens when a a WR or OT gets hurt?
Fans are just being obsessed with the player Bowers and aren't really thinking about the actual team.

Bowers isn’t a traditional TE. He’s a big slot. He can play out of the backfield as an H back. You could line him up outside.
I’d think of him more as a Chess piece than a traditional TE.
Anyway, I prefer they draft Odunze but I’m certainly not going to be upset with a player like Bowers.

He can roll secondary as a blocker and play HB too

If they draft Bowers, then trade Kmet. I say that as an unabashed Irish homer.
Why?
The Bears are creating their own version of bash and slash, the Gronk / Hernandez Patriots duo, minus the murder hopefully.

It would certainly make the latest signing of Gerald Everett look a little foolish, but meh
Why?
What is better than 1 move tight end? Two, of course.

Smokescreen, allegedly the Colts want him.
Poles trying to get them to trade up so he can trade down.
What?
You don’t think they really decided to draft him at 9 without an obviously beneficial trade down, and felt the prudent thing to do was tell Jordan Sigler???
At least you could say they kept it from the real media.

You still have Everett, who isn’t great but isn’t a bum. Maybe Poles didn’t want to show his hand going into the draft and signing Everett was a Glennon-type of signing?
If Everett has a foot long neck, Bowers will be a Bear, book it.

“We don’t want anyone to know this information.”
“ Well, then, let’s give it to Jordan Sigler, nobody reads his stuff.“

WIth more talent at TE, there will be more 3 TE sets.
Even if there weren't many 3 TE sets, having Bowers would allow for injury replacements and rest with the other TEs.

Is this really a hard concept to grasp? Maybe we should draft and sign 4 TEs. Maybe we should draft another RB too. Let's just create depth at only one or two positions. What could go wrong?

Sooo poles is pretending to like a player so a team who actually wants him can trade with the team that fake likes him?

They'll be complaining about the offensive line all year if we draft Bowers.
