The CHGO Bears crew starts your week off right with new information about the Chicago Bears NFL Draft process. Following a documentary on Roku’s “The Pick is in”, fans have learned that the Chicago Bears nearly pulled off a trade with the Atlanta Falcons in the 1st round. The trade would have moved the Bears up one spot in the 1st round from the #9 pick to the #8 pick in exchange for that #9 pick and an additional 2025 4th round pick. The Falcons wound up declining to select Michael Penix to the elation of the Chicago Bears front office? Why wouldn’t the Falcons make that move? The CHGO Bears crew discusses.
Later, we discuss another part of the documentary, showing the conversation about how the team would tell Trenton Gill about their decision to draft another punter, Tory Taylor, in the 4th round. Join Adam Hoge, Mark Carman and Nicholas Moreano as they break it all down on the CHGO Bears Live Podcast.
