Yesterday I saw some 10k follower Chicago sports Twitter suggest that the Lions trade pick 5 (??? currently have the 3rd pick) Pick 12, Pick 42, Pick 61 and next years first rounder for the Bears 2nd overall and pick 55.
I thought, oh a silly Bears Twitter with a moronic trade idea.
Now, NBC Sports Chicago, an actual sports broadcast, is suggesting THIS.
Bears fans folks. They’re hilarious. Both of these trade ideas are some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Keep your eyes peeled for more fabulous suggestions from totally tuned in and knowledgeable fans.
EDIT: a link to the tweet I saw yesterday from the “Chicago Football Connection”
Ah yes, a completely reasonable trade that Brad Holmes would make 10/10 times
I feel like the bears will have a better record than the rams with how things are going
Bears fan are dreaming, we’re not doing a trade and we are taking Carter 3rd overall.
Whoever wrote this up was on crack.
Soooo they get enough picks to build a team and we get… to move up a spot? OH HELL NO
Considering the Bears had 3 months to trade one of the best LBs in the league and they walked away with a second and fifth…sure, keep dreaming guys
Puff puff, PASS! You were missing the PASS part. Lol and FTP
Brad Holmes is going to thank them for the offer, and counter them with a kind “Get fucked, mate”
So the only way we’d trade up with the bears is for a QB. There is no shot the bears takes a QB. So in this scenario, the lions give up a ton of draft capital for someone that would have been there if we never traded. I guess in this scenario we’d be going for will Anderson? But even then that much capital for him doesn’t seem worth it.
All that to move up one spot. Absolutely not
Three first round picks and more draft capital to move one spot up in the draft? You can’t even make this deal in madden
Forget compensation. Why the hell would the Lions even want to move up a spot? Are the Bears going to take a QB? The Lions certainly arent. (This year)
I think you’re way more likely to see the Lions trade the #3 to a bad team that overperformed. (Jets, Giants, etc) that are desperate for a QB, for this years first and next years first.
In that scenario the Lions would have the Rams 1, the Jets/Giants/whoever 1 in this year’s draft. And their 1 in next year’s draft. This would let them trade up for a QB or take one at their spot. (If needed)
Not that this is likely either..the Lions take BPA.
This would be the most expensive move for anything other than 1OA in the history of any professional sport
Bears fans just wanting to fleece another team to make up for getting the shaft after trading everything to SF to draft Trubisky
This is the most ridiculous trade idea I’ve ever seen.
Are we sure this isn’t a deep fake from r/nfcnorthmemewar
In fact, should we just post it there and then all pretend that as Lions fans we like this idea?
I think they’re sold on the lions MUST pick a qb this year, even though Goff is loved by Holmes and the locker room, and lead a top freaking 5 offense before his entire wide receiver room was destroyed.
Idk what’s in the water over in chicago but they got it worse than our koolaid.
Wow, that’s Ryan Pace bad
Who ever came up with that need to put down the Meth pipe. Trade away the future plus both our first rounders to move up one spot. 🤣🤣🤣. This is the stupidest thing I’ve seen today, but it’s still early.
Who’s got that draft value chart and can tell us just how ridiculous this is
In 2017, the bears traded up from #3 to #2. They gave up a third round pick, a fourth round pick, and a 2018 third round pick and at the time were ridiculed for the amount they gave up (and rightly so). this is them trying to make that trade look reasonable.
So we give up the 3rd pick the 13th pick, next year’s 1st, a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th and a 6th to move up one spot and a 4th round pick? That’s egregious no GM would ever do that. Giving up the two firsts this year alone already sounds like an overpay.
Edit: grammar
This is the Trubisky trade lmao. Complete waste of time considering how many games are left anyway. I don’t think the Bears have won their last game of the year.
This trade would only be sensible if we think the bears were drafting a qb and they won’t, no reason to overpay for 1 spot when that is a guarantee
See kids, this is why you shouldn’t do drugs.
Its funny because this is the kind of trade a Bears GM would actually make. Then they would pick Trubisky.
No
Don’t do drugs, kids
Counter offer: We give the Bears our #3 Rams pick and in return we get all of the Bears draft picks for the next 100 years. Seems just as fair as this trade lol.
What the hell, this was aired on tv? Was it a joke?
Does this trade come with lifetime supply of head? Lmao. Moving up one spot and giving up five picks.
Is there like 2 or 3 future HOF players to be named later that the Lions get that are missing from this graphic?
I don’t understand why bears fans would think we would do this to move up one spot😂 especially when they won’t be taking a qb
Some of the comments in that Twitter thread were deranged.
How on earth is anyone thinking that this is a “fair trade” for both parties?
As a bears fan, it sounds like a fantastic deal. You probably shouldn’t do it.

EDIT 2: for fun I plugged this into a draft value calculator. This would be the most lopsided trade in NFL history. Great work NBC Sports Chicago.
