Sounds Like the Bears Could Shop For Defensive Line Help at NFL Trade Deadline
Could Ryan Poles be looking for help along the defensive line?
In his most recent mailbag at the Chicago Tribune, Brad Biggs speculates that the Bears might be on the lookout for help along the interior defensive line ahead of the 2024 NFL Trade Deadline. And I want to talk about that.
But first, the quote in question:
"If there’s one position the Bears might look for a player it’s defensive tackle. I’m not suggesting this is likely by any stretch, but if you evaluate where things are, the run defense hadn’t been great until limiting the Jacksonville Jaguars to 68 yards on 20 rushes Sunday in London. That helped in the rankings, where the Bears now are 10th in rushing yards allowed per game (112) and 18th in yards allowed per carry (4.6). … Maybe if a run stuffer is available for cheap, the Bears might consider it."
