Would you trade Chicago's no. 1 pick for Burns?

I keep saying this but we need to cheer for the Bears to win free agency on defense. 
 

The Bears have almost 100m in cap space. They had the fewest sacks in the NFL but they love their young secondary. 
 

if they can sign Daron Payne, and another DT like Hargraves from the Eagles I think they’d be willing to swap 1 for 9 and Brian Burns. They’d also have to pay Burns. 
 

This would make the Bears significantly better on defense, still have 30m or so cap leftover, Burns would look better in Chicago lined up next to two guys who each crossed 10 sacks this year and the Bears could switch their eyes to helping Fields on offense in round 1 with a lineman or WR. 
 

Then at 1 we are guaranteed to get our guy which would hopefully be Stroud. We can use the money we saved by not giving Burns a monster contract and give it to a guy like Yannick who is the same player for less money.

If they decide they prefer one of the other QBs, they are the one in the tough position...not the trading team. I'd try to offer them our two second round picks and maybe a third for next year. If we weren't going to trade Burns for what LA was offering, then we shouldn't do it now for one player. 

Two 2nds and a 3rd for #1 overall? The owner would veto that and fire their GM on the spot.
