Treveon Henderson fits the Johnson type of RB, he might be there for the bears in the 2nd round picks, for sure with the 1st 2nd round pick
Aren't the Bears looking for a bigger back who can break tackles? Henderson is fast, but so is Swift.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler provided an update on this topic Friday: "People I’ve spoken to believe Cincinnati wants either a first-round pick or a strong Day 2 package to ship Hendrickson, who will command well above $30 million per year on a new deal."

What about swapping 10 and 17 and giving them one of our second round picks? Would that be in line with a “strong Day 2 package”?

I don’t like that move with the holes the Bears still have on the offensive line but swapping picks may work.

I don’t think I like it either. I’d rather trade down from 10 into the teens and pick up a solid DL prospect. Then we’d still have 39, 41, and whatever we got from the trade down.

I support this plan. I think you are off about Membou however, he's rock solid at RT and likely going round 1.

I love the Donovan Jackson pick in round two, he's a stud.
Love the thread, agree on Membou.

Swapping firsts along with our 3rd would probably be the highest we could/should go. We'd still have 3 picks in the top 41 to address the need positions while hitting DE in a big way already.

And is Hendrickson really going to command $30 mil AAV at age 30? I know he's been damn good, but damn.

I'd have to think he'll get it. Led all edges last year in sacks (18) and pressures (83). He's elite in every pass rushing metric available...he's insanely underrated.

Very most I'd give if I were the Bears would be a swap of 10 for 17 and a 3rd in 2026 (equivalent to to mid 2nd and jump into the top 10).

Otherwise- a swap of 41 for 80 (equivalent to a late 2nd) should be enough here. Teams can't go crazy in draft compensation because he's going to result in a mega contract that everyone knows Bengals won't/can't pay.

While I think Hendrickson is fucking awesome- my preference would be to use that money on multiple pieces (Dalman) in FA and keep the picks, but we'll see.

I think that's the more likely path as well but Poles hasn't been afraid to make splashes. And if we're going to try to make a run, now's the time while Caleb is still on his rookie deal.

I like the emphasis to fix the OLine, but think we should look to add another DT instead of two guards in the 2nd round.

We can't fix everything in this draft but if we keep the picks we have, we can roll the dice and an Edge with #10 if they like him ,and get two Offensive Linemen in the second round. And then hope there's a good enough running back in the 5th.

Potentially, that's addressing a lot of holes.

From Fishbain at The Athletic:​

“Chicago Bears​

Trade offer: No. 41 overall

The Bears have a major need at defensive end, a GM who has already made two trades this week, the cap space necessary for an extension, and a connection to Hendrickson in defensive coordinator Dennis Allen. Now, that can go a few directions. Allen was the Saints’ coordinator when they drafted Hendrickson in 2017. He was in that same post when Hendrickson left via free agency.

We don’t know how much that potential reunion matters, but we do know that the Bears haven’t been afraid to use the trade market to fill premium positions. A Hendrickson-Montez Sweat pairing at edge rusher would be formidable. After the acquisitions of guards Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson, a new deal for Hendrickson could be too much for a team that still has other needs, but it’s still worth the conversation. — Kevin Fishbain”
