Is it a hot take to say the Chicago Bears need receiving help?
It shouldn’t be. This became obvious during week five’s game at Minnesota. Justin Fields’s second half play was probably his best so far this year, but his hard work was stonewalled by a costly last-minute mistake by Ihmir Smith-Marsette, among other receiving mishaps.
Luckily for Bears GM Ryan Poles, plenty of options are available if he wishes to seek receiving reinforcements.
A previous WCG article looked at where the WR free agent pool stands, so this article will mainly focus on trade targets the Bears might/should pursue, broken into various tiers based upon the receivers' current conditions and what they would bring to Chicago.
