Trade! The Chicago Bears are trading for Patriots center Garrett Bradbury, per sources. New England receives a fifth-round pick in return.
Chicago, who lost Drew Dalman to retirement earlier this week, picks up a veteran with NFC North experience.
I’ve got some thoughts on DJ Moore … but our family welcomed a baby girl this week, so she’ll get my Bears takes for now.
Maxx Crosby is drawing serious interest around the league. The Dallas Cowboys are closely monitoring the situation and remain very interested, while the Baltimore Ravens are also a team to watch. GMs believe the Las Vegas Raiders are willing to work on a deal.
The Bears are moving on without DJ Moore. His final game in Chicago was a disappointment, but some magical moments will live on in Bears lore.

Back of the napkin math here...
The Bears trade Moore -- I have him valued at $17M -- and shed a $28M contract.
And then you factor in the value of the second-round pick swap for a fifth...
The Bears went +$11M on Moore and +$8.3M on the pick swap.
That's a robbery, folks.
BREAKING: The Chicago Bears are finalizing a trade to send WR D.J. Moore to the Buffalo Bills, sources tell @diannarussini.bsky.social.
Before a player is an NFL draft pick, he is the subject of a scouting report.
