FWIW, this is another win-win trade for both teams, as was the Quinn trade. A win for the Ravens as they get one of the best LBs in the league and if they can work out an extension, then it's an even bigger win for them.

The Bears get a win as well because it's obvious they were never going to pay Roquan what he was asking - yes they could have used the tag on him next year, but this would have likely resulted in a lot of shit such as him sitting out or at best playing under angry conditions and just causing a lot of unease on the team. So to nab a 2nd and a 5th is about as good as we could have hoped for what might turn out to be a rental.

agreed. We learned the price for a fourth round pick is 6.3 million dollars last week. I say Poles got about 20 million dollars in draft capital for next year.

Roquan will fit their scheme, but I would hate to be them negotiating with Lamar and Roquan next season.

Bring on red face Sanborn.

So we're okay with trading Roquan and Quinn but we're not okay with tanking the season...? Erg?

-- The thinking of idiots.

I mean...After this trade I have to think our front 7 may be the worst front 7 in my lifetime...possibly in Bears history. We're gonna get f*cking trucked the rest of this season...Buckle up boys.

Whoa whoa whoa. But some old idiot on this board said we're going to be top 10 in sacks.

My herpes is back.


If you would have told me in the offseason Roquan was being traded I would have been pissed. Based on his performance this season and the director the defense as a whole.....I will gladly take those pics. Poles is playing the long game. Hard to get mad at that.

So they let you out early with good behavior, eh?

We dropped Quinn and a team that struggles for points (best output 25 up to this past weekend) dropped 49 on us. Roquan out and we are giving up 30+ on the reg. I never doubt the Lions ineptitude but we’re going to be in the running for worst.

WAIT!!! There's more:

UPDATE: Roquan Smith traded to the Ravens for picks and a player

The Chicago Bears are moving on from their All-Pro linebacker, Roquan Smith, via a trade with the Baltimore Ravens and here are all the details of the move.

www.windycitygridiron.com

Update: Baltimore is also sending linebacker A.J. Kline to Chicago in the deal. The 31-year-old Kline has played in 136 games in his career with 81 starts during time with the Panthers, Saints, Bills, and the Ravens, and in 2022 he played in 2 games with 1 start.

SB, here we come!!!

Does make it rough for your Bears since the offense was already awful. But I’m not sure the defense can fall far enough to equal Detroits level of awful.

Sandborn and Wetherford... Time to step up.

Obvious, signing him at his Ego value was out of the question. So a second, a fifth and and the LB AJ Cline. Solid vet for the balance of the year. I like it. 6 picks in the top 4 rounds... nice.

 

[DJ]

They have a lot of picks in the next draft and like 90 mill in cap space.

 

[NCChiFan]

Also, could resign Roquan in the off season, while acquiring 2 picks?

More, was $125 m in cap. And he wanted $20 mil...
