NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah held a conference call with the media this week, and he offered a 2023 NFL Draft trade scenario for the Chicago Bears that might be the best-proposed swap of picks for GM Ryan Poles and the future of the Bears organization.
In Jeremiah’s hypothetical trade, the Bears trade down to the No. 9 overall with the Carolina Panthers and receive multiple first-rounders in future drafts.
“If you want to go all the way to 9, you are going to get the ninth pick, you are going to get the 39th pick, and get a first round in ’24 and a first round in ’25,” Jeremiah said.
Even though the Chicago Bears would be trading out of striking distance for Will Anderson Jr. and Jalen Carter, this deal feels like a best-case scenario for a Bears roster that needs more than one blue-chip defender to compete in the NFC North.
