The Chicago Bears are sitting in a very enviable position with the NFL Draft approaching
The NFC North outfit holds the No. 1 overall pick, with which they are expected to draft Caleb Williams. And they can draft just eight spots later should they wish to do so as they also have the No. 9 overall pick, which they can use to bring in a top wide receiver prospect or a highly-rated edge rusher.
Many teams drafting in the middle of the first round would readily jump at the chance to get that ninth pick, leaving Chicago with quite an edge. Two such teams are the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts.
The former could use a left tackle while the other is in the market for a wide receiver.
Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox has put together a proposal that has the Colts sending their 15th, 82nd, and 117th picks, plus a 2025 third-round pick to the Chicago Bears in exchange for their ninth pick.
“In this scenario, Chicago decides Allen, DJ Moore and tight end Cole Kmet are a good enough core for its rookie quarterback. The Indianapolis Colts, however, decide to get aggressive in bolstering the supporting cast of second-year QB Anthony Richardson,” Knox suggests.
“Here, the Colts make the jump from No. 15 to No. 9 to grab a pass-catcher before the [New York] Jets do. The Bears, who own just two selections outside of Round 1, add more capital in the middle rounds.”
The Chicago Bears Might Not Get Such An Offer Unless A Certain WR Is Still Available At No. 9
The Chicago Bears will likely listen to plenty of offers ahead of April’s draft, but the above might not be one of them considering all of what Indianapolis would have to give up simply to up move six spots to a berth that’s as close to No. 10 as it gets.
Still, should Washington Huskies wide receiver Rome Odunze still be on the board after the first eight picks, the Colts would probably consider making such a trade. The likeliest scenario sees them holding their cards until draft day, but who’s to say the Bears wouldn’t want the player themselves
