Bears Insider Exposes Crushing Trade Reality for Top WR

Summary

The Chicago Bears are doing well in the current NFL season, winning four games in a row. However, there are discussions around possibly trading wide receiver D.J. Moore due to his high salary and recent performance not being as strong as before. Although Moore has been a key player in the past, the team might not get much in return if they decide to trade him.

Key Facts

  • The Chicago Bears have won four straight games and have a 4-2 record this season.
  • Running back D'Andre Swift and receiver Rome Odunze have been key to the Bears' improved offense.
  • D.J. Moore was acquired from the Carolina Panthers in a 2023 trade for the No. 1 overall pick.
  • Last year, Moore did not reach 1,000 receiving yards, and so far this season, he has 22 catches for 258 yards and one touchdown.
  • Moore's current salary cap hit is $28.5 million for each of the next three seasons.
  • There are talks about possibly trading Moore, but he might only fetch a fourth-round draft pick.
  • Moore has not made a Pro Bowl but has had four 1,000-yard seasons in his career.
  • The Bears might benefit more from keeping Moore, hoping he improves rather than trading for a lower draft pick.
