Ryan Poles' $4.75 million solution for Bears is already flaming out after 2 games

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles has had his fair share of mistakes, but his latest bold move might be backfiring on him after just two games.

Bears fans were screaming for the team to make a trade to bring in an edge rusher after Poles' other mistake in free agency, Dayo Odeyingbo, suffered a season-ending injury against the Cincinnati Bengals. Poles' response to that was trading a Day 3 draft pick to the Cleveland Browns to acquire defensive end Joe Tryon-Shoyinka.

No Bears fan was particularly excited about the move, as it felt more like a punt at defensive end and putting their faith in Austin Booker.
