Ryan Poles made his first big move as Bears general manager. According to several reports, he agreed to trade superstar pass rusher Khalil Mak to the Los Angeles Chargers. In return, the Bears will receive a second-round pick in 2022 and a sixth-round pick in 2023.
The Bears still don’t have a first round choice this year as they sent him to the Giants to trade for Justin Fields. But the extra second-round pick, who is No. 48 overall, will give Ryan Poles another chance to pick a top 50 prospect in what is expected to be a multi-position deep draft.
Here’s the full list of Bears draft picks this year since the Mac trade:
-Second round, 39th overall
-Second round, No. 48 overall (via Chargers)
-Third round, 71st overall
– Fifth Round – No. 147 overall (via Texans)
– Fifth round – No. 149 overall
-Sixth tour – 184 common room.
According to OverTheCap, the Bears will have $24 million in dead money this year for trading the Mac, as well as freeing up $6 million in salary caps.
Now the Bears will turn to Robert Quinn, Mario Edwards and Travis Gipson to build quarterback pressure.
