The Chicago Bears are perfectly positioned to trade back from being the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, and we’re confident there will be no shortage of suitors.<\/p>\n

If GM Ryan Poles can find a trading partner, he’ll probably trade back. But who are the most likely candidates?<\/p>\n

NFL insider John McClane appeared on Football Night in Chicago to discuss Chicago’s potential trade-back from No. 1, and it’s clear that No. 2 Texans or No. 3 Colts are the best options. am<\/p>\n

Not only are they both looking for quarterbacks, but they also put the Bears in a good position to land either Alabama edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. or Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter. I will put<\/p>\n

“They don’t want to be lower than the Colts at four,” McLain said.<\/p>\n

But are the Texans in a position to move up one position to stop division rival Colts from leaping over them? Or better yet, in the Bears’ best interests. Would you ever trade back one spot with Houston for<\/p>\n

“Caserio has 11 picks, two number one, two number one in 2024 and he has 10 picks,” McLain said. “So he can afford to make that move. They’re not going to get as much from trading one spot from the Texans as trading four from the Colts.<\/p>\n

It’s true that the Bears will get more capital from the Colts than the Texans, and you think this is something the Poles are considering. Overall, he’s most likely to pick 4th place (and get more in terms of rewards), depending on how Chicago feels about Anderson or Carter \u2014 which one stands out.

This is a storyline worth watching, especially as we approach the draft at Scouting Combine and Pro Days.<\/p>\n

But how much of a factor is the fact that a divisional rival could vie for the top quarterback option?<\/p>\n

“If it was the NFC South team, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal,” McClain said. “But if you play the Colts twice a year, and the Colts play the Texans twice a year, I’m assuming they want the same quarterback. Some like CJ Stroud and Will Levis, in fact Nick Caserio has to convince people by leaking that he wants a quarterback he doesn’t. Both teams get the quarterback they want and the Bears get the defensive lineman they want.”<\/p>\n
