The Chicago Bears enter the 2025 offseason with a mix of elite players and significant draft capital, including top talents like D.J. Moore and Caleb Williams. However, the team faces a critical void without a head coach, prompting discussions about leveraging their assets—players, picks, or cash—to secure a high-caliber coach.

Historically, NFL head coaching trades have yielded mixed results. Examples include the notable trades of Sean Payton to Denver and Jon Gruden to Tampa Bay, both of which had successful outcomes, while others like the Herman Edwards deal floundered. The Bears, having struggled on the sidelines post-Lovie Smith, might consider making a bold move to change their fortunes.
