Report: Bears ‘Leaning Toward’ Moving No. 1 Pick in 2023 NFL Draft

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Chicago Bears are ‘leaning toward’ trading down from the #1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft:

“The Chicago Bears have been approached by multiple teams about trading the No. 1 pick in this year’s NFL draft, and Chicago is said to be ‘leaning toward’ moving the pick, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.”

“The Bears own the top pick in a year when anywhere from eight to 12 teams could be looking to make a switch at quarterback.”

Colts general manager Chris Ballard rather notoriously “loves ‘dem picks,” but if Indianapolis has a clear top quarterback prospect who they’ve evaluated that is considered ‘helmet and shoulder pads’ above the others, than it may very well be worth trading up to secure him.
