3 trades the Chicago Bears should attempt in coming days
By Ryan Heckman
The Chicago Bears should trade Robert Quinn for a couple of picks
After trading Mack for somewhat less than fans would have originally thought the Bears could have gotten, it might make sense to go all-in on the rebuild by trading Robert Quinn. On one hand, it would hurt losing a guy who just set the franchise record in sacks for a season.
However, Quinn’s contract and age aren’t worth keeping around. He’s not going to be here when the Bears are finally competitive again, therefore it would be sensible to deal him for what he’s worth at this point.
One team that makes sense in acquiring Quinn, with all of the pass rusher movement going on around the league, is the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams lost Von Miller to the Buffalo Bills via free agency, and then they saw guys like Mack and Chandler Jones land on new teams as well.
The Rams have a history of going all-in to win, just as they did last year, and could bring back an old friend in Quinn. The veteran pass rusher spent the first seven years of his career with the Rams and set his career-high with 19.0 sacks there back in 2013.
