Daryll Taylor Traded to the Bears for 6th round pick

[Glasgow Seahawk]

Not really a shock, was likely getting cut

Get what you can for a player you are going to cut

 

[Maelstrom787]

Bears would think they're getting a steal based on his sack numbers.

Looking like Jamie Sheriff might just play his way onto this roster.

Guess the Bears needed someone who could stealthily sneak onto field to block in the middle of a play. Only thing he was good at. Prime example of stats not telling the story.

 

[Cyrus12]

Probably was getting cut. Great trade

Who's left thats on the bubble to hope to get something for? Eskeridge? (I can dream) Coby Bryant? Any one else?

 

[CostaRicaHawk]

Per OTC it should be a $3,116,000 cap savings. Only $20,000 dead money.

 

[HOF Hater]

Great trade, was gonna get cut so get something for him

 

[nwHawk]

Love it!

 

[kidhawk]

Always happy to get something for someone this time of year. Always held out hope that it would click for him but he just couldn’t get there

 

[AROS]

I had higher hopes for him. Oh well. Onward!

That's the 2020 draft class all gone. None extended but Lewis, Brooks, Parkinson and Dallas getting deals elsewhere. Alton Robinson was a strange one. Looked good at points in his rookie year then nothing.

I think the 2022 draft class saved JS's job.

Not a bad draft class at all in terms of talent acquired when picking quite late. That's the type of class a team picking 27th has to hope for. Sad we didn't keep any of them, but quite a few of them are getting paid.

Alton could've been something if his knee didn't get torn up.

This shows the team has more overall talent this season than the last couple years. On D anyway. Darrell Taylor was a one-trick pony, but the NFL HIGHLY values that one trick, sacking the QB, so there was demand. Good to get something for him. He was the odd man out and was gonna get cut.

How many 6ths do they now have for the ‘25 draft? They moved from the 7th to the 6th with the MJ trade. Now a 6 for Taylor. JS must see a lot of talent in next years 6th round.

Good question. I've heard this draft is pretty well rounded but without the top tier talent in the upper first round/qbs so might be a good one to get picks for.

Maybe JS is planning to get all the 6th round picks next year, then trade them all at once for a top-5 pick...

 

[hawkfan68]

This was a guy drafted in the 2nd round but now has 6th round value. He's a prime example of diminished returns.

If they get anything for Eskridge, its a win. Bryant might yield a 6-7th. Rhattigan comes to mind and I have mixed feelings on that. With Barrett added and Knight playing decent, I count 4 ILB's with Rhattigan potentially odd-man out. BUT...he's played really well in both the PS games so I don't want to lose him. You normally wouldn't think he'd have enough value for a pick and teams would wait for the cut...but just maybe if a team needs depth at the position.

We are also deep at WR, but another instance that teams will wait for cuts IMO.

I'd trade Meyer for a doughnut and coffee if the chance arose. After OL & LB, that's my biggest area of concern.
