Chicago Bears: 5 players to include in a Deshaun Watson trade

Chicago Bears trade candidates for Deshaun Watson: Bobby Massie

He’s not a player you would automatically think of including in a deal for Watson, but Bobby Massie makes a bit of sense for both the Bears and Texans. Obviously, Houston has Laremy Tunsil holding down left tackle. But, they could use some depth at the position overall and maybe even someone to push Tytus Howard at right tackle a bit.

In order to land Watson, the Bears would have to try and include enough salary for a trade to make sense, otherwise they would have to get rid of a few players in addition to the trade just to make room. Massie is a candidate to get cut this offseason with the Bears only taking a hit of $2.6 million while saving almost $7 million in doing so.

If they could include him in a trade, that would make even more sense than allowing him to be cut for nothing in return.

Massie would be more of a throw-in on a deal like this. He would make sense to include in a deal that also had one of the former big names like Hicks, Robinson or Smith involved, plus draft capital of course.

Chicago already needs an upgrade at the tackle position this offseason, so Massie along with Charles Leno could be in danger regardless. This way, they at least are able to make something of letting him go.
