Peter King on the trade

I could be wrong but didn't Carolina turn down a first round pick offer from GB for Moore at the trade deadline?  Based on what I have read the offer from Carolina was a 1st & 2nd in 2025. Chicago wanted Moore or no deal. What he has achieved in 5 seasons (365/5201/21) is nothing short of a miracle, with the QBs throwing to him. Believe me, being a Bears fan, I recognize mediocrity when I see it. Let me remind you:

2018: Newton/Allen/Heinicke

2019: Newton/Allen/Grier

2020: Bridgewater/Walker

2021: Newton/Darnold/Walker

2022: Newton/Darnold/Walker

Not sure if it was calculated, but taking away the best player on Carolina's offense was a brilliant move by Poles. It takes away a security blanket for the rookie QB and hopefully results in a better pick for the Bears in 24. Good luck trying to replace his contribution. Hopefully, Carolina will find a replacement after the 2025 season.

Dude averaged around 5 TD’s and around a thousand yards per season as the primary receiver. Elite receiver’s make plays when they get the ball, blaming a QB who contributed to those yards accumulated makes absolutely no sense.

Guess who else averaged 5TDs & 1000 yards (actually 920) per season? Steve Smith. I'm not saying Moore is Steve Smith but I'm also not buying he will be easily replaced either.

I know Smitty called DJ his spirit animal ha ha, but this is a great example of stats not telling the real story.

If we traded up for Levis or Richardson this will be a complete disaster. 

It won’t be because of the QBs themselves but the cost to go to 1. I honestly think Richardson is available at 9. Levis at 5 or also maybe 9. Now that’s pre-trade up as one of the QB that was going to be available at 2-9 is now gone at 1.

I would be ridiculously disappointed in getting either of those two at 9 knowing we traded Moore and maybe another pick for nothing.

    • I'm only in favor of this if they make it like cigarettes.  Shouldn't be plastered all over the presentation of the game.
    • Yes but this is under the assumption that most of the players are susceptible to this sort of coercing from those type of elements. I think those actual cases are rare. Plus the sportsbooks are more motivated than most to stamp it out because it loses them money. It's just a natural side effect of having gambling at all. IMO, better for it to be legal. Now, I do find it insanely hypocritical(but also typical) that all these sports leagues that once turned their noses up and were very high and mighty about sports gambling are so openly supporting it now that the megabucks are rolling in.
    • Well I should also say another caveat is positional value. You have to be careful violating that. For the scenarios you are describing, those are also things that free agency is for. Free agency should always set up the draft. Improve the roster and then go shopping for things to potentially take your roster up a notch.  Lastly, we are in scenario 2. Our roster is still not good and we have holes at most position groups. We are actually in the "BPA All Day" range.
