Assessing 3 Trades the Bears Could Make During the 2024 Draft

3. Bears trade down from No. 9 and receive three picks from the Los Vegas Raiders

The deal Bleacher Report projects between the Bears and Raiders involves the Bears moving down to No. 13 and receiving a second-round pick (No. 44) and a fifth-round pick (No. 148). In this hypothetical scenario, the compensation the Bears are receiving from the Raiders is less than what the Broncos gave up for the same pick above.

The Raiders giving less compensation is strange, seeing as they would most likely be moving up to draft a quarterback like the Broncos. For that reason alone, the Bears might be looking to get more out of the Raiders in a trade.

However, if the Bears don't ask for more compensation and accept a trade offer like this from the Raiders, they would still be able to address their offensive or defensive line with this pick. Since it is only one selection lower than the Broncos' pick many of the players mentioned above will still be available.

Watching the Bears 2024 draft unfold will certainly be exciting given the possibilities.
