Wow! π΅ I didn't see this trade coming. Bears are very strong at WR now with D.J. Moore and Keenan Allen.

That's an expensive 32 year old WR

Reminds me a little of Thielen going to the Panthers to help the new QB. Seemed like he was the best thing Bryce Young had last year.
Allen should be a nice voice and playmaker for Caleb Williams.
It is a LOT of money for a 32 WR. Wonder if Ryan Poles overpaid a bit. 4th while picking up that contract seems high but Allen did have a good season last year.

Yeah - Having to pay that salary plus a 4th is crazy. |

That's an expensive 32 year old WR I thought this as well. The man is injured a lot, costing a lot, and declining. I feel itβs not that great of a move. |

Paired with DJ Moore and Caleb Williams, he will be tough for the Vikings to stop. Didn't Allen have something ridiculous like 18 catches against the Vikings last season? He had over 200 yards receiving from memory too. If he faces us 2x a year now, that does not bode well for the Vikings, IMO. Yeah, it's a big contract for a guy who has had many injuries, but when he's on the field, he is really good. |

Plus, the Bears might draft Washington star wide receiver Rome Odunze with the ninth pick.

Pretty much means Harrison is not going #1.

Allen has been a really good player for a lot of years and maybe he still has more left in the tank; but, the production cliff for WR's is sudden and steep. |

Ryan Poles making the Bears look great on paper so far. Pretty impressive in my book

The trade last year with Carolina to get DJ Moore was unreal and has paid dividends for this draft that may have changed the franchise. While Poles may have made some interesting choices in some areas, he may come out ahead long term. No risk, no reward. |

Thing with Allen is his game is similar to Cris Carter's and CC made it into mid 30's as a productive guy.
