Chicago Bears Salary Cap and Maxx Crosby Trade Rumors

40 comments

1. Get them all. The Bears get all the pass rushers. So what are we going to give up? Leave this team as is and add to it in free agency and draft. See how far the Bears can go. Barring injury.

2. Who cares where he went and who cares if he from Detroit if the lions get him we have to go get Myles Garrett no if ands or buts swift

3. About time you said something about this. I’ve been tuning the rumors out cuz it just sounds reckless. Thanks Swifty.

4. I'd love to have one of those 3 pass rushers, but since we realistically can't have any of them right now, I think we should be looking at some talented, yet affordable O line help.

5. It's tough because i love all 3 but man i really don't want to trade away all our draft capitol plus we have a really good secondary that will want paid soon so taking on a superstar contract will really make it tough

6. Agree swiftly.

7. I'd love Parson to be traded to Chicago.

8. I want dude from Virginia tech

9. Doesn't fit the Poles plan, I like sticking with this D line for 2024, draft an edge next year

10. Solid team building through the draft has been proven to be the way to go. I would not give up the cheaper top draft choices and prefer to live within our means unless the value of the deal is ridiculously good and a sure thing.

11. 🐻⬇️

12. BEAR DOWN

13. The defense is already pretty damn good. If they trade for anyone I would rather they traded for an offensive lineman. This defense is good enough to win championships already if healthy. Going all in for one of these pass rushers in Caleb's rookie season just seems pretty damn desperate and unnecessary. We'll have a better chance over the next few years when he's more experienced. That's when they should make their move.

14. Hence why we pay our qb less

15. Didn’t the Bears do the exactly same thing when we drafted Trubisky? We got Kahlil Mack in that trade. We need to develop a QB and build through the draft! Look at every team in our division. We all got good through the draft!!! The entire NFC North! Better to wait until 2026 and 2027 and go all out and pay for a 1-2 year contract to win a superbowl. Then dump those guys and have enough to pay caleb williams in 2028-2029

16. I’d be thrilled if they can unload Nate Davis’ awful contract

17. Reggie White. Bret favre didnt win SB till White came on board and won the MVP. Defense wins Superbowls, Look at the history. Even HOF QB's didnt win till they had great D's. Not "good" GREAT. Check the record.

18. People are just throwing nonsense out there. If and I mean IF the Bears trade for another defensive look for someone like Chase Young who they probably could get for a 5th and he’s on a one year contact with the Saints.

19. I'm honestly glad that I dont get paid to make these decisions 😂. You know that if these players are actually available that Poles and staff have checked and weighed it out. Thank you Swift…BEAR DOWN!

20. Until i hear something real i feel like this is all nonsense

21. agree, we have made these moves in the past and lost our future. Stay the course and develop on both sides of the ball and accept we are not there yet, its a journey and it is upward.

22. You make a lot of sense, I'd rather protect the future as opposed to Pacing it up lol. BEAR DOWN!

23. Thanks for explaining the cap space issue. I agree with you on Maxx, Miles, etc. Next year 's draft is loaded with DE's and there is the potential for adding someone in free agency. Poles needs to be looking for a right guard now. If he can trade Davis before the trade deadline, does his salary go with him, and thus creates cap space for the Bears?

24. It’s Chat Sports putting dumb crap like this out there just for clicks. Keep up the great content Swift.

25. We don't need another edge rusher. The price and juice is too much. We need offensive lineman. The salary is too much. We would be in cap trouble for years

26. We are NOT a super bowl team yet, no reason to give away the farm, slow and steady wins the race

27. Hey Swifty, do we know if Poles is looking for a certain player right now to trade? If anyone, who would be a possible candidate? Rumors are that Herbert could be a trade candidate. Did you make a video about this possibility already? I've been a little MIA. Bear Down brother.

28. 👀

29. I like to go after Travon Walker 6 sacks already and only 23 years old with 2 years left on his rookie contract

    Would appreciate a response my guy

30. I like where they are at right now. I would like them to play the year out then get the best players they can in the draft.

31. Appreciate the video on it Swifty. Bears should keep their picks and be patient. But wouldn’t hurt to be on phone with Raiders driving any trade talks up if Detroits asking tho

32. Well, that was disappointing, but a much needed reality check

33. It makes no sense to trade for Crosby we are probably not a SB contender Detroit can be

34. Raiders take a 2nd for Maxx? Lol… Doesn't matter, too expensive. Buuuut….Which 2nd? Bears or Caro's? Guess which….

35. Too much draft capital, and then would have to pay them… Then the years draft is so deep at DE… Why, we are not making a Superbowl run this year… And if we draft an end we have so much draft capital to address our offensive line.

36. Let’s go Bears let’s go fans and press the like button. If you can view you can like it to.

37. Agree but one minor omission is could you send players and picks other way to get a starter. 6M not getting u much esp it cannot restructure. I prefer to keep picks as not player away and oline needs improvement before defense.

38. we reset the rookie clock for this very reason, IF either do come up in and the bears want to pay the price to get them Ryan Poles and co. will figure out a way to make it work. Where there's a will, there's a way.

39. Maxx isnt going anywhere. Stop with this fske news

40. They're better off getting walker from the jags.
