Poles must've wet his pants and made the trade I guess. I'd probably preferred the double trade down. DJ Moore better be the man they need him to be or Poles wizzed a generational chance to possibly get at least 2 first rounders next year when the draft is thought to be better.....

 Meanwhile back at the ranch we have the 2023 CHICAGO BEARS before the draft at this point in time.

 If you're a BEARRSSE fan ... you never saw anything like this in your motherfuuking life.

 Shiit happens.

Explain the double trade down that the Bears passed on.  The only double trade down I thought possible would be to Houston and then to the Colts.  That would have given them a few picks outside of R1 but would have given them the lesser of Anderson/Carter.   

But I think Houston was OK with the #2 spot taking either Young or Stroud.

That was a trade that was hard to pass on when Moore was added to the mix. There's really not much like him in the draft and that's a strong need slot so they made the right choice....

Yeah the double trade with Colts was what the report (take with grain of salt). It does seem he could've waited awhile before pulling the trigger. But we'll see where this goes. It feels like he flinched (although not as bad as Pace did trading up for Trubiski).

But at least they should have 2 firsts next year. That's a lot of flexibility.....

There is a PFT article about possible double trade with Houston and the Panthers.....

Nothing beats the trade up for Trubinsky. That was a epic screwup.....

The trade up itself was not really a screw-up.  The Bears only gave up a 3rd and a 4th and 3rd the following year to move up 1 spot to #2 to get a shot at who they thought was a franchise QB.  The guy they picked turned out to be the epic screw up.

Article from Breer basically says that Houston were understandably dragging their feet because they wanted to do a full evaluation of the QBs.  IMO, if Carolina still held firm with Moore, Chicago would still have the 1st pick for sale.  And there's no way Vegas would have given up a '23 1st , '23 2nd, two future 1st on top of that, and a future 2nd.

Nicholas Morrow signs with the Eagles.  Matthew Adams signs with the Browns.

Read that Poles requested any 1 of 3 players from the Panthers in return for the number 1 pick.

Brian Burns for sure.  CB Jaycee Horn?

Ed Oliver of the Bills is in 5th year of his rookie deal.  Wants to be paid now.

Article suggests that Bills might put him on the market.  He's a 3 technique with pretty good success but not monster sack numbers.

3 technique's are not that plentiful in this draft.  Lots of NT types and undersized DT tweeners. 

Assuming he's on the block - what would the Bears offer?  He's 25+.  Maybe a watered down 3rd rounder?  Or a 4th?
