In trading for Darrell Taylor, Bears GM Ryan Poles settles for a more modest gamble

One week after trying to trade for four-time Pro Bowl defensive end Matthew Judon, general manager Ryan Poles made a more modest — and more successful — attempt to bolster the Bears’ pass rush Friday. Poles agreed to send a 2025 sixth-round pick to the Seahawks for edge rusher Darrell Taylor, who has 21 ½ sacks over the previous three seasons.

“He’s got sack production, he’s been a really good pass rusher,” coach Matt Eberflus told WSCR-AM.
