There was plenty of buzz around the Chicago Bears after last season\u2019s NFC North title and playoff win, and that buzz hasn\u2019t cooled down a bit this offseason. With the NFL Combine and draft, the trade rumors, free agency, the stadium saga, and the retirement of Drew Dalman, it seems like a new Bears nugget pops up every day.<\/p>\n
Wide receiver DJ Moore has been at the center of a lot of the trade discussion, and with the start of free agency and the league year one week away, we\u2019re likely to get a resolution in the coming days.<\/p>\n
CBS Sports\u2019 Jonathan Jones mentioned<\/a> Moore in his latest notebook.<\/p>\n One Bears player plenty around the league are keeping an eye on is wide receiver D.J. Moore. The former first-round pick is coming off his least productive year of his career. The Patriots could be a landing spot for Moore if the Bears do a deal involving the receiver, or he could be part of a hypothetical package that goes to a needy Las Vegas team in a deal for Crosby.<\/p>\n My understanding is that Moore\u2019s reputation around the league is pretty high, and while Bears fans have DJ\u2019s final route and playoff loss fresh in their minds, he\u2019s also thought of highly in their own locker room. Moving on from Moore would be a financial thing for the Bears rather than a talent thing.<\/p>\n Last week, the Chicago Tribune\u2019s Brad Biggs reported<\/a> that the Bears could get a day two pick for Moore, albeit they may need to get creative with his salary and pay some of that to necessitate a deal.<\/p>\n
