Bears on the verge of trading a quarterback
We have been banging the table for Ryan Poles to trade veteran QB Nick Foles for a long time now. Looks like he has listened! Mike Garafolo reported that "the Bears have explored trades for Nick Foles. With the addition of Siemian, expect that to continue, as the writing is on the wall for Foles, who has $1m of his base salary guaranteed in addition to the $4m roster bonus Chicago just paid him this month."
I think this would be long overdue. Foles should not be part of the future in Chicago. He was a mistake by Ryan Pace and it's time to correct it and rip the band-aid off.
Even if the Bears are not able to swap Foles for a late-round draft pick, the ideal move at that point would be to simply release him. I am a big believer in Trevor Siemian. He was signed by the Bears last night to a two-year deal. I honestly think he could be one of the best backup QB in the league. He showed great things for the Saints last year.
