Chicago Bears: 4 bombshell trades with Washington for the no. 9 pick
By Ryan Heckman
Trade Number 4: A huge deal involving two notable wide receivers
Finally, we stay in that same spicy territory and project a trade involving that first-round pick swap, along with a few other picks and two wide receivers.
For the Bears to make a move for another top-end wide receiver, that would mean they’d have to part with one of either Darnell Mooney or Chase Claypool. Because Poles just traded for Claypool last year, it would make more sense for the team to trade Mooney.
The Bears now have Terry McLaurin and D.J. Moore, giving them a top-5 duo in the league, without a doubt. For the Commanders, they’re not left without any offensive weapons for their new franchise quarterback. Washington still has Jahan Dotson, plus the addition of Mooney, giving them a young duo of their own.
A deal like this would probably mean Washington extends Mooney, too, to make this well-worth it.
