Today is my fantasy baseball league’s trade deadline. And while I am a near-lock to make the playoffs, I think I have one or two more big moves in me ahead of the deadline that could position me for a championship run. Maybe Bears GM Ryan Poles will find himself in that position someday in the future.
ICYMI: Wednesday was a landscape-shifting day for how NFL fans consume the product, with the league and ESPN coming together to create a mega deal. The folks at Awful Announcing have more details on the landmark agreement, including news of the end of Monday Night Football doubleheaders. That was a fun schedule quirk while it lasted. In other news that might have flown under the radar, the Los Angeles Chargers re-acquired Keenan Allen and signed the former Bears wide receiver to a one-year deal. Over at Bears Wire, Brendan Sugrue dissects whether or not the Allen trade was worth it for Chicago’s football team. All in all, I still like the idea of the trade. And if Allen was able to rub off on Rome Odunze and Caleb Williams in a positive way, then perhaps we can look at this as an “all is well that ends well” situation. Can we call it a draw and move on with our lives? © Daniel Bartel-Imagn Images FOX NFL reporter Ralph Vacchiano explores which teams might consider trading for Dallas Cowboys star pass rusher Micah Parsons and what it would cost to cut a deal. The Bears are joined on Vacchiano’s list by the Bills, Ravens, Chargers, Raiders, Jets, and Commanders. Vacchiano opines that Chicago GM Ryan Poles hasn’t done enough to bolster a defense that graded out poorly last season. Given that he calls the Khalil Mack trade a success, I understand why Vacchiano would see the Bears as a trade fit for the Cowboys. I still struggle to envision a scenario in which Cowboys owner Jerry Jones doesn’t pony up the cash to pay Micah Parsons. With that being said, reading Vacchiano’s perspective makes me wonder if this Bears front office did enough to fortify the defense going into this season. My gut says no, because the team did not add a proven pass rusher to come off the edge. However, my brain says the offseason additions should pull them up from being a bottom-third unit to the middle of the pack. I want to unpack this topic more later, but this feels like a good starting point. Speaking of trade chatter, The Athletic’s NFL Staff cooks up five potential trade partners for Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin. No, the Bears are *NOT* on this list. Why would they be? The top of their WRs room is set with DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, and Luther Burden III. However, two teams on Chicago’s list of opponents in 2026 (49ers, Steelers) pop up as possibilities. It will be worth following this storyline knowing that Washington is the Bears’ Week 6 opponent on Monday Night Football.
