Back to EpisodesBears STIFFED On Comp Picks?! 😡 NFL Reacts + Doyle & Al Harris Expected Back 🐻⬇️
Description
The Bears finally took the leap in 2025… and now the NFL might be trying to short-change Chicago in 2026. 😤🐻⬇️
On this episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the NFL world reaction to reports that the Bears may NOT receive compensatory picks after Ian Cunningham lands the Falcons GM job — despite many expecting two 3rd-round comp picks. What’s the deal with the Rooney Rule dynamics, Matt Ryan’s role in Atlanta, and why Bears fans are heated?
Plus, we get a major coaching staff update: Declan Doyle and Al Harris are expected to return for 2026, which is a BIG win for Ben Johnson’s “five-star staff” after losing Eric Bieniemy.
And then we hit the voicemail bag 📞🔥:
✅ Ben Johnson leadership + Caleb’s “numbers are the numbers” reality check
✅ Colston Loveland possibly getting snubbed… and why that could fuel a monster Year 2
✅ Maxx Crosby cost vs “win now” urgency
✅ Draft-building vs veteran impact moves
✅ The REAL direction of the franchise heading into 2026
