Last quote from Peter King on the trade:

“1. I think the one tributary about the Carolina trade that should make Bears fans feel good this morning is this: The Panthers had previously turned down at least one offer of a first-round pick plus some lesser trade chip for D.J. Moore. So when you try to figure out the relative value of Moore in the deal, think of it as probably equal to a mid-first-round pick—because in a down year for receivers in the draft and certainly in free agency, a wideout in the range of 15th- to 20th– best in the league with three manageable years left on his contract entering his age-26 year has great value.

2. I think that means—or at least Chicago can argue—the deal to move down eight spots from the top of the draft is the equivalent of the ninth and 61st picks this year, two more first-round picks and a second-round pick three ones and two twos. And that’s a load. Now the pressure’s on Ryan Poles to turn those pieces into a competitive football team.”

It’s a good trade indeed. I don’t mind it at all. Now if I can just get what I have been asking for a long time. To get lucky with some of those hits and have those picks be really good players and at least 1 that turns into a superstar.

If we're willing to spend the 9th pick on JSN and be happy about it, and Moore is certainly a better NFL player than JSN, then he's definitely worth a mid-round first.
