Former Pittsburgh Steelers WR Chase Claypool being traded to the Chicago Bears, suffice it to say, did not work out for him. Nor did it work out for the Bears. And the Miami Dolphins have taken a downturn since acquiring him as well.
But the Baltimore Ravens acquiring ILB Roquan Smith from the Bears has worked out well for both player and team thus far—nevermind the fact that he got a huge payday from the Ravens. He has been instrumental in turning them back into one of the best defenses in the league and is helping position them for a title run.
